Following a surprise announcement on Instagram, KP appeared at 3 of Hugh's live shows at Radio City Music Hall this week, playing "If You Think It's Love" as a solo song and a duet with Hugh, a cover of Sonny and Cher's "I Got You Babe".
There is an as yet unidentified song she performed while she was wearing a floral suit, we only have a brief snippet of that.
Please enjoy some Youtube footage shot by fans while we wait to hope that someone uploads more over time.
Watch KP's 'Fantastic' performance on Vevo. Great to see her band back together!
Of course KP was given the honour of accompanying the long-awaited sex scene between Cait & Vi! The only choice really! Watch the Riot Games beautiful music video featuring caitvi and fantastic:
You can stream Arcane S1 & S2 on Netflix and get the whole soundtrack on spotify.
Several months ago, during the months long process of reclaiming access to the original r/kingprincess reddit, I asked KP if she liked this website.
I got a really enthusiastic answer!
This was before I finally found Glastonbury!
But it's awfully sweet that KP likes what I'm doing here and doesn't mind we gather All The Things in One Place for her and the world.
KP has posted a cute snippet of herself grooving in the studio with her friends and Razz the dog, who inquisitively sniffs the camera as a nice warm moody ethereal track floats through the air:
"Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, where she observed a number of the music industry's greatest artists at her father's recording studio Mission Sound, King Princess turned down a record deal at just 11 years old in favour of finishing school.
At only 19 years old, King Princess burst onto the international market earlier this year with her gold certified, breakout single "1950" which broke the top 30 on Spotify. The track has been streamed over 14 million times in Australia and New Zealand, following a single tweet from Harry Styles. His quoting the lyrics went viral, and the tweet has generated over 300,000 likes and 100,000 retweets to date.
Her incredible debut EP "Make My Bed" was released in June via Mark Ronson's Zelig Records (out now through Sony Music New Zealand) as the label's first release. Featuring the exquisite new single, 'Talia', which has been streamed over 14 million times worldwide to date and an additional three previously unheard tracks, "Make My Bed" is an incredible insight into what we can expect from pop's exciting new artist.
"a prodigy in the making" -- Mark Ronson
"a songwriter, producer, and musician who is truly challenging the traditional ferms of pop music today" -- Coup De Main Magazine
"There's an inherent sense of sweeping romance and melancholy in her songs that renders them captivating." -- PAPER
"'1950' is about as close to perfect as a pop song can get." - Pitchfork
As an intensifying vocalist, multi instrumentalist, songwriter and producer, King Princess is a pop superstar in the making and this show is not to be missed! Secure tickets now to avoid disappointment."

Her Majesty Miss King, circa 2018:
Back in 2018, Sofiane Ait Slimane interviewed KP for Dull, you can watch the video here for the first time in 6 years thanks to Bilibili's archive of this rare interview.
It first came to my attention a few weeks ago when I was scrolling backwards through the endpoint of the results of KP's official Reddit. When I won the reddit back in May '24, I was stoked to see that there was such a glut of content going back to mid 2018, all the way through around mid 2023, when the Reddit was shuttered. Thankfully that closure didn't mean the threads were outright deleted --- that would have been a true loss to the historical record of this artist.
Roughly 20 pages of content with 25 threads each have been preserved in the Reddit, and further backed up against disaster or homophobia with the Wayback Machine.
Around 474 threads in, you could see this interview was posted, but the OP's account has been deleted, the thread had no comments, and the link itself to the video interview was dead. See the red below:
To the Wayback Machine we go! But, the video wasn't preserved....
So in frustration, I start googling the magazine itself, at one time it did have a semi functioning wordpress, but that too, is almost devoid of info:
Finally we can see a little blurb and what once was the video...
But it took actually typing various keywords over and over into google to finally churn up China's results:

| Look at that smile! |
So now, thanks to a Chinese video sharing site, you too can listen to this great interview with a very young KP (approx 19 years old in this interview) and hear her gush over Lady Gaga and meeting her and seeing her concerts:
"Sit Down With King Princess"
by Sofiane "So'lution" Ait Slimane, for Dull Magazine, France, circa late 2018:
So we have a little tiny bit of this show, some concert vloggers on Youtube posted some snippets of 1950 and Talia, but not much more.
KP came on in the early afternoon, on Day 3, Sunday, the 19th of May, 2019.
Did you attend? Did you take concert videos? Contact us if you attended, write us a message below, or email us, we really do want to build a full picture of all KP's tour perfs for you!

KFOG Radio Interview with King Princess by Danica Lopez, San Francisco, July 24th, 2018
Since the recovery of the KP Reddit, a vast collection of over 450 topics has displayed interviews, images, concert footage, and fan art dating back to around mid 2018. We found this interview with KFOG radio buried deep inside the reddit and decided to bring it to you here. This one shows just how youthful and talented KP was and is to this day.
Interestingly it was recorded the day after her sold out Rickshaw Stop performance and the day of her performance at Great American Music Hall.
“When you’re young and you’re straight and you’re dealing with heartbreak you need that song that gets you through it and makes you cry and puts you back together. Gay people need that too! And it seems obvious but it’s really necessary – you need people who look like you and sound like you, on radio and in television, film, writing.”
"I don't understand how you can live in 2018 and allow someone else make your music sound a certain way. that's just some crazy sh*t to me."
It's the I-know-myself-and-that's-everything attitude that allowed Mikaela Straus, aka King Princess, to release a debut EP that is entirely her own. Not bad for a nineteen-year-old. But Straus isn't any teenager. With an eloquence and knowing beyond her years, Straus is taking her place in mainstream alt-pop as a queer artist who knows what she wants. "I didn't have anybody who was gay who was making music the way that I needed them to," King Princess tells KFOG. "It's not their fault. It's a systematic issue. But it's also really possible to be gay in this industry because everybody is really hungry for authenticity. I think the system that is in place grants very little authenticity. I think there is space to be made." King Princess talks signing with Mark Ronson, the importance of representation in music, Netflix's "Glow," and more with host Danica in this interview at KFOG.
