Dizzee Rascal threatened to punch Prince Harry in face
August 7th, 2009 - 6:12 pm ICT by ANILondon, Aug 7 (ANI): Brit rapper Dizzee Rascal, real name Dylan Kwabena Mills, has revealed that he threatened to punch Prince Harry in the face after his performance at Hyde Park’s Wireless Festival.
Rascal, 23, said that the incident took place after the Prince and his three friends made their entrance while performing boxing moves, and giving “street handshakes” on their way to meet the performer.
“I never saw that one coming,” the Telegraph quoted Rascal as saying.
“Then Prince Harry came in and was joking around and being a bit cheeky, so I told him, ‘If you weren’t royalty I would’ve punched you in the face by now,’ and he seemed to like that,” he added.
According to the singer, Prince Harry fit in well backstage because he is a “naughty boy”, and he thinks the Prince and his friends are “probably a bit wilder” than his own crowd.
Rascal will release his new single ‘Holiday’ on August 31. (ANI)
