Lewis Capaldi seems to have experienced the ultimate celebrity encounter when he met Justin Bieber at a glitzy party, which he’s fairly sure was thrown by Kylie Jenner. The two singers hit it off, and Capaldi couldn’t believe his luck when Bieber approached him, claiming to know who he was. After sharing a fun night together, Capaldi felt like they had forged a true friendship. But wait! Things took a turn when Capaldi texted Bieber the next day to express how special the night was—but the reply never came. Oops!
Capaldi amusingly dubbed this the moment he got “aired” by Bieber. Imagine pouring your heart out in a text and getting ghosted by one of the biggest stars on the planet! It’s a reminder that even when you think you’re in with the cool kids, you can still end up on the sidelines. And if that weren’t enough to stir the pot, Capaldi dropped another bomb about a “lost” collaboration with Calvin Harris that never saw the light of day because, well, he didn’t like how he sounded.
This leads to a crucial question: haven’t we all had moments where we overthought our talents? In a world where everyone seems so perfect, it can be nice to hear that even music icons sometimes feel insecure or awkward. So, what do you think? Would you prefer to get a text back from your favorite star, even if it’s just to let you down gently? The struggle is real, even at the top!
