Siti Nurhaliza grateful at her song being selected for "The King's Music Room" on Apple Music

Yahoo13-03-2025
13 Mar - Siti Nurhaliza recently admitted that she did not expect "Anta Permana" would have gained the attention of the British monarch King Charles III, let alone becoming one of his picks for his Apple Music collaboration.
The singer, who was interviewed by Hot FM following the release of Apple Music's "The King's Music Room", where her song was featured as one of the King's favourite, said that she was informed by Universal Music regarding the selection prior to that.
"Praise be to God. Allah gave me the blessing to be recognised. It isn't easy to have people love and value our work," she said.
At the same time, Siti also congratulated the song's writers, Hael Husaini and Ezra Kong, saying, "We need composers like them. With the advantage of the current technology, we can make it to the global market."
Siti's "Anta Permana" was one of the many songs King Charles picked for the show that was made in conjunction of the Commonwealth Day. Among other performers of his choice include Diana Ross, Raye, Beyonce, Kylie Minogue and Bob Marley.
Meanwhile, Hael recently posted his own thoughts about it, writing, "I never imagined that one of my compositions with @ezrakong, sung by our @ctdk, titled Anta Permana, would be chosen as one of His Majesty King Charles III ' playlist songs @theroyalfamily. Alhamdulillah Proud."

Nick Kyrgios adds new twist to Carlos Alcaraz-Emma Raducanu dating rumors with ‘love triangle' comment

Nick Kyrgios has stirred the pot about a rumored 'love triangle' at Wimbledon, while a tennis power couple has reportedly split up for the second time. All eyes are on Emma Raducanu this week as the 22-year-old Brit looks to make a deep run at the All England Club, where she burst on the scene with a fourth-round appearance in 2021. Raducanu went on to win the 2021 U.S. Open, becoming the first qualifier in the Open Era to win a Grand Slam singles title. 11 Nick Kyrgios is stirring buzz over a Wimbledon 'love triangle' comment.

Max Cisotti/for evian She has battled to recapture that form since, but the early signs this year at Wimbledon are good. The Brit cruised through to the third round with a comfortable win over 2023 Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova. She'll take on Amanda Anisimova in the third round after the American secured a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Mexico's Renata Zarazua. 11 Nick Kyrgios tossed Jack Draper's (pictured) name into the 'love triangle' mix. AP It will be the second meeting between the talented pair at a grand slam this year — Raducanu won their second-round match at the Australian Open. Kyrgios isn't playing Wimbledon this year as he manages injury, but speaking to TalkSPORT, the 2022 finalist joked about a 'love triangle' between Raducanu, Carlos Alcaraz and British No. 1 Jack Draper. 11 Emma Raducanu smiled after her Wimbledon match on July 2, 2025. Susan Mullane-Imagn Images 'I don't know, I think it's a love triangle,' Kyrgios joked lightheartedly. 'Draper, Alcaraz, Raducanu. They're fighting over Raducanu I think, I'm not sure.' He went on to praise all three players, who look set to make a deep run at Wimbledon. 11 Carlos Alcaraz in action at Wimbledon on July 2, 2025. Susan Mullane-Imagn Images 'I think (on) the outside (she looks happy), I don't know who's making her happy,' Kyrgios said. 'The tennis world loves a love story, they love to try and put two together but Raducanu is No. 1 British female player at the moment, she's doing fairly well. 'Obviously, winning a grand slam at 19 is never easy, it comes with a lot of expectations from the outside world. But, you know, as long as she's happy.' 11 Emma Raducanu and Carlos Alcaraz during a pre-Wimbledon event in June 2025.

The 22-year-old will team up with Alcaraz to play mixed doubles at the U.S. Open later this year, and she was quizzed about her relationship with the five-time Grand Slam winner ahead of Wimbledon. 'We're just good friends,' Raducanu smiled in her pre-Wimbledon press conference. The press conference moderator swiftly ended the line of questioning, with Raducanu joking: 'Way to wrap up!' 11 Nick Kyrgios, a 2022 Wimbledon finalist, is not playing at the Grand Slam.

They got back together weeks later and had shared plenty of insights into their relationship on social media, but it seems Tsitsipas and Badosa have split once more. 11 Tsistipas and Badosa were in a relationship for a year before calling it quits in May 2024. They got back together a short time after. Getty Images for Laureus The 26-year-old Greek player said he may have to contemplate retiring from tennis as he struggles with an ongoing back injury. 'I don't know what to do,' Tsitsipas said after the match. 'I feel like I'm left without answers. I don't know. I've tried everything. I've done an incredible job with my fitness. I've done an incredible job with my physiotherapy, so I've maximised on everything that I possibly can do. 'Right now, I'm just absolutely left with no answers. I don't know what to do.'

Queen Camilla Brings Back Signature Florals in Fiona Clare During Visit to Scotland With King Charles III

Queen Camilla joined her husband, King Charles III, for a trip to Scotland on Wednesday. Britain's queen consort and reigning monarch are on a tour of the country as part of Royal Week, making stops at receptions and special commemorations. For the annual visit, Queen Camilla went back into her royal wardrobe and opted for a dress courtesy of one of her go-to designers: Fiona Clare. The queen consort re-wore a floral dress, with long sleeves, rounded shoulders and a slightly flared skirt. The dress featured a base fabric of cream with cascading florals in shades of blue, pink and fuchsia running down the fabric.

Finishing touches included coordinated pearl earrings and a pair of Chanel cap toe suede satin low heel pumps in beige and black — another staple piece of the queen consort's wardrobe. While attending the commemoration for a memorial stone for Queen Elizabeth II in St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh, Queen Camilla wrapped up in a coat by Anna Valentine, one of her other favorite designers. Queen Camilla previously wore this Fiona Clare design last May. The queen styled the frock for the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Canada House in London. The High Commission of Canada in the U.K. officially opened on June 29, 1925, by King George V, King Charles' maternal great-grandfather. The queen consort also replicated this look from last year's trip to Scotland in July 2024. The British royal family member wore the dress for a celebration of individuals who promote Scottish Literacy at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh exactly one year ago. Royal rewears are a signature part of Queen Camilla's wardrobe. The queen consort consistently repurposes dresses by Fiona Clare and Anna Valentine. Kate Middleton is also dedicated to the trend, rewearing pieces by Self-Portrait, Emilia Wickstead and more.
