Badshah asks his dad to break down his outfit—the hilarious response will leave you in splits
Rapper Badshah recently shared a BTS glimpse with his fans that has gone viral on social media. The rapper asks his dad for a "drip check" in a now-viral Instagram reel, but instead of receiving praise, he receives a dose of traditional dad-level transparency. No matter how well-known you are, a desi father will always keep you grounded. This is shown when Badshah boldly displays his attire and requests a style breakdown, and his father hilariously mocks every piece. Watch the video here: "How much do you think this coat cost?" Badshah asks as the camera pans in on his father's outfit. 'I think this is at least ten years old,' his father says without hesitation. His father gives the ideal response when Badshah presses once more, "How much did it cost?" "Someone gave it," he says without missing a beat. The rapper continues by repeating the question while pointing to his shoes. In keeping with his tradition, his father remarks, "Those are from your wedding—cost around ₹4,000 back then." When Badshah finally inquires about the tie, he is met with the final zinger: "Even this is also given by someone." The internet is in splits as the entire moment is delivered with the ideal balance of fatherly sass and sarcastic humor. On the work front, Badshah is preparing for The Unfinished Tour 2025, which will take him across the United States, with stops scheduled in Seattle, Chicago, Dallas, and other cities. He is also preparing to make his debut in a fashion show, which will be a significant milestone for Indian representation in international fashion.

Watch: BTS' Jin Recreates Coldplay Viral Kiss Cam Video On Stage
BTS member Kim Seok-jin, popularly known as Jin, appears to have joined the online trend of mimicking the viral Coldplay kiss cam video. During the concert in Anaheim as part of his RunSeokjin solo tour, Jin referenced the video by attempting to duck down, mimicking Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was allegedly caught cheating with the company's head of human resources (HR), Kristin Cabot. The incident happened during a break between the performances when Jin invited fans to play a quick game of charades. When the word Coldplay was flashed on the screen, the audience members started reenacting the video. Initially puzzled, Jin soon realised and played along, asking, 'Is it my bro?' - a nod to Chris Martin, Coldplay's frontman, with whom he has a song titled My Universe. The two have also shared the stage before, most recently in Seoul this April. As the video went viral, BTS fans were amused that Jin not only managed to understand the reference but went one step ahead and recreated it. "This is truly what a full news cycle for a pop culture event looks like," said one user while another added: "Do you think Chris Martin texted him personally?" A third commented: "What a legacy to CEO. Biggest boyband in the world knows you are a cheater. Feel sorry for the families of such people." Watch the video here: JIN ACTING OUT THE CHEATING COUPLE HUGGING AND HIDING AT THE COLDPLAY CONCERT??! 😭 — jin files (@seokjinfile) July 19, 2025 Apart from Jin, Major League Baseball (MLB) team Philadelphia Phillies has also trolled Byron, Cabot for the viral clip. The mascots of the MLB team recreated the viral "kiss cam" moment as part of Friday night's game against the Los Angeles Angels, which has since been circulating widely on social media platforms. After initially panning over couples, the camera settled on the Phillie Phanatic and a fellow mascot, dressed in a blonde wig. The mascots recreated the now-infamous reactions of Byron and Cabot, with one of the mascots hiding below while the other turned back, much to the amusement of the audience members. Phillies debut the 'Coldplay Kiss Cam'. Wait for it… — Jason Martinez (@JasonFox29) July 19, 2025 Meanwhile, furniture retail brand IKEA posted a stuffed panda hugging an orangutan from behind on their Instagram. The caption read, "Don't get caught... without these! Drama-free cuddles guaranteed." The phrase "HR approved" was placed in the image. Tesla leaned into tech-savvy mischief with a post on X. "Posting a pic of you enjoying your loaner Tesla while your own one is in service is the equivalent of taking it to a Coldplay concert. Your car will know," the Elon Musk-owned company wrote.
