Mike Benz discussed claims that NATO and U.S.-linked organizations use pop stars like Dua Lipa and Taylor Swift to influence public opinion and geopolitical narratives. Benz highlighted how the Atlantic Council, a NATO-affiliated think tank funded by multiple U.S. government agencies and military contractors, awarded Dua Lipa for promoting messaging aligned with U.S. interests in the Balkans, particularly regarding Serbia and Kosovo. He noted that while it’s unclear if Dua Lipa is aware of this context, her public stance supports U.S. anti-corruption and pro-Western efforts in the region.
Benz also revealed details from NATO’s psychological operations center demonstrating that influential figures like Taylor Swift were cited in discussions on using celebrities to disseminate “desired messaging.” These revelations expose the intersection of entertainment and geopolitical strategy, raising questions about media influence and information control in modern conflict zones.
