Taylor Swift Turns Down Duchess of Sussex's Personal Podcast Invite, UTA CEO Calls Markle 'Not a Great Talent' Amid Sussexes' Failed Spotify Deal

Meghan Markle invited Taylor Swift to appear on her now-defunct Spotify podcast, but Swift declined the offer.
The CEO of United Talent Agency criticized Markle's lack of talent following the cancellation of her Spotify deal.
Markle and Prince Harry struggled to produce content for their $20 million Spotify contract and only released one 12-episode podcast series.
The Sussexes continue to work with Netflix, though some of their pitched ideas were rejected and they must deliver more content to receive full payment.
The failed Spotify deal and public backlash from industry executives signal a possible end to massive deals with celebrities not proven in entertainment.
