Denmark's Crown Prince Christian, 19, parties with friends at popular music festival

New York Post11-07-2025
The 19-year-old Prince of Denmark has gotten as far away from prestige and ceremony as possible and has been spotted having fun at festival.
Christian is the eldest son of Australia's own Queen Mary, who left Australia to marry King Frederik.
When they met Frederik, was still a prince.
Their romance and subsequent marriage sent Australia into quite the meltdown.
Over 20 years later and countless Women's Weekly cover stories later, the couple are still together.
Queen Mary still visits home, and King Frederik officially took the throne in 2024; since then, the pair has ruled Denmark together.
Their 19-year-old son, on the other hand, who towers over his father, Frederik, who is 6 feet tall himself, was seen letting loose at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark.

He was spotted bro-ing out with his mates and looked just like any other festival goer.
He even rocking a wristband.
The 19-year-old kept it very Gen Z chic in oversized denim shorts (the kind Adam Sandler used to wear when they were considered cringeworthy) and an oversized white T-shirt, along with worn-looking sneakers.
He was seen smiling, singing, dancing, in the crowd and hanging out with his mates.

It was remarkably normal behavior for someone who is set to become King.
Online people were thrilled to see the young royal living a relatively normal life and also amazed that he is now an adult.
'I love this for him. That he can spend a few days at a huge festival without really being bothered,' one cheered.

'He looks so matured,' another praised.
'When did he grow up so fast?' Another asked.
Christian's festival partying comes after his parents announced last year that the heir to the Danish throne would be taking some time off before commencing any university studies.
It was announced he'd embark on an 'extended stay in East Africa' where he'd be working on two farms doing both practical and administrative tasks.
After returning, he started his four-month military service at the Guard Hussar Regiment in February, and it has now been announced that he will commence Lieutenant training in August this year.
'The training starts in early August 2025 and lasts one year plus a subsequent period of practical service as a platoon leader. The Crown Prince will complete his ongoing military service with the Guard Hussar Regiment at the end of May,' The Royal House said in a media release.

Hulk Hogan's former manager Jimmy Hart opens up about his last moments with wrestling icon

Jimmy Hart's still in shock at the death of his friend, Hulk Hogan. The transformative and controversial WWE legend Hogan died Thursday at the age of 71 at his home in Clearwater, Florida.

WWE via Getty Images Advertisement Not long before Hogan's passing, Hart — a longtime manager and close friend — had publicly insisted the WWE Hall of Famer was doing better than had been reported. 'He was great,' The 'Mouth of the South' told People on Friday about seeing Hogan for the final time about a month ago. 'He had great food to eat that night. He was talking with the fans. He was just phenomenal.' Hart revealed his shock when he learned of the wrestling icon's passing. Advertisement 'I called [Hogan] on Wednesday night, and then Thursday morning is when everything took place,' Hart said Friday. 'So just…just overnight it all happened, but it was so positive the day before.' Hart added that when he called Hogan this week, he didn't get to speak to him.

Getty Images Instead, he spoke with Hogan's assistant, who merely sent a message saying that the former six-time WWE Champion was 'doing great.' Advertisement 'Well, tell him I love him,' Hart said he told Hogan's assistant. He indicated that he felt encouraged by the response, thinking 'this is great' news, People reported. 'It just hits so fast,' Hart said about his reaction upon learning of Hogan's death. 'It was like, 'Oh my God.' We thought he was doing so well, you know? We didn't go to see him at the house and didn't go to see him at the hospital, because we wanted to make sure that he didn't get any infections or anything else, like if anybody had a cold or brought anything in. So, that's what we all did.' Hart had a decades-long friendship with Hogan, going back to their early Memphis days through WWE and later WCW and TNA. Advertisement Hogan, a 12-time world champion — six in the WWE and six in WCE — was a two-time WWE Hall of Famer, being inducted in 2005 as an individual and in 2020 as a member of the New World Order. Hart was also inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005 and is regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestling managers of all time.

The beauty of Bill Joel? Unlike with so many stars, there's no myth-building

Normally, if you see someone's four wives all speaking about them on TV, it's a safe bet you're watching a 'Dateline' murder mystery. So it's astonishing to witness all three of Billy Joel's exes appear as well as his current wife in the documentary 'And So It Goes,' the second episode of which premieres Friday at 8 p.m. on HBO. Heck, even his former bandmate Jon Small is a frequent voice in the film. Small was married to Elizabeth Weber when the Piano Man and Weber fell in love. Advertisement The fallout from that triangle led Joel to attempt suicide, and he says he felt like a 'homewrecker.' But Small 'finally got over it' — and even went on to direct the music video for 'Uptown Girl.' 8 Last summer, Billy Joel ended his long running residency at Madison Square Garden. Getty Images I cannot account for his personal interactions and how he's still on good terms with all these people, but it says a lot about the man. Forgiveness is complicated. Advertisement And so is self-examination. But Joel, who has an inherent likability, seems to be well-practiced in the art. Not that he didn't give the women in his life agita. Much of his marital strife was fueled by alcohol abuse, and much of that was well documented in the press over the years. 'Some of the stupid stuff I did, that's painful to talk about,' the 76-year-old recently told People magazine, adding that directors Susan Lacy and Jessica Levin 'asked me for some thematic guidance. I said, 'Just tell the truth.'' 8 HBO's two-part documentary 'And So It Goes' explores the life and music of Billy Joel. Advertisement What's interesting is not just his story but the way he tells it, and the way he let the filmmakers have free rein. Lacy said they were given 'complete and utter independence' by the singer-songwriter. Unlike with so many stars, there's no myth-building at play. There's no artifice. As told in the documentary, his remarkable life can be summed up by the opening anecdote. Joel, who grew up in Hicksville, Long Island, recalls working on an oyster boat as a young man. He'd look up a sprawling mansion and sneer at the 'rich bastards' who lived there. 8 In the 1980s, Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley were the biggest celebrity power couple — and she was his muse. Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images Advertisement 'Well, I own that house now,' he said. It doesn't come off as an arrogant mic drop, but rather a 'pinch me' moment. And while he famously has a song called 'Angry Young Man,' it's the fact that he remained a man of the people that's been the key to his success. He is not, as Bruce Springsteen notes in the film, 'an angry activist man. He never directly goes there. Which is part of why the material hasn't dated.' 8 Billy Joel started taking piano lessons as a young boy in Hicksville, Long Island. Photograph by Billy Joel Archives/HBO 'Say Goodbye to Hollywood' was written when Joel and Weber were living in California — and he realized that the Empire State was a better personality fit. Relieved to be back, he literally wrote 'New York State of Mind' while on a Greyhound bus heading to Highland Falls, where Weber had found them a home. With 'Goodnight Saigon,' he wove a beautiful narrative through the tales of his friends who had returned from Vietnam. Advertisement 8 Billy Joel's first wife, Elizabeth Weber, was also his manager. She is interviewed in 'And So It Goes.' AFP via Getty Images 'Lullaby' was written for his daughter Alex Ray Joel as he was splitting with second wife Christie Brinkley. 'Piano Man' is rightfully praised in the documentary by rapper Nas as a 'mirror facing the mirror.' There's themes of love, loss and searching for his absentee father. Joel found him living in 'Vienna.' Advertisement But he has never truly told people how to think — a rarity these days. 8 Billy Joel performing in the 1970s. Photograph by Art Maillet/Sony Music Archives/HBO As critic Steven Hyden remarks in the film. 'He writes about people. Not causes or concepts.' Joel has said he knows people don't want to hear him on his soap box. Advertisement Appearing on 'Club Random,' he recently told Bill Maher he has no time for woke scolds. 8 In 2015, Joel married his fourth wife, Alexis Roderick, and the pair share two daughters, Della and Remy. Wireimage 'On the other hand, I'm always trying to find out the other point of view. What's, you know, not my point of view — somebody else's point of view,' Joel told Maher. 'OK, I'd like to understand why they think that way.' It's obvious why people connect with the guy. He's one of us, only with six Grammies and a spot in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. Advertisement The father-of-three was recently diagnosed with normal pressure hydrocephalus, a brain disorder that causes, among other things, issues with cognition and balance. This week, he told Maher that he 'feels good' save for his balance: 'It's like being on a boat.' 8 On a recent episode of 'Club Random' Billy Joel told Bill Maher that he 'feels good' despite his diagnosis of normal pressure hydrocephalus.
