VATICAN CITY, Italy & HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - illiNews -- Last June, amidst ancient stones and eternal echoes, The World's No.1 Superstar™ and his husband Richard found themselves standing in the holiest of places—The Vatican. What was meant to be a soul-nourishing visit to reconnect with history and spirit has now gained new meaning, following the recent death of the Pope at the age of 88.

Long before headlines captured the world's grief, the Sidow Sobrinos walked through Saint Peter's Basilica with reverence, intuition, and a deep awareness that something larger was unfolding.

"Rome didn't surprise me," said The World's No.1 Superstar™. "It confirmed what I already felt—we were meant to be there, as if a part of us had waited centuries to return."

The Pope's age at the time of his passing—88—sparked further reflection. A number that eerily aligns with the couple's own symbolic math: 8 for The Superstar, 11 for Richard, their union representing a powerful cosmic 88. It's not superstition—it's synchronicity.

From gliding past Vatican guards to silently standing before St. Peter's Tomb, the experience was more than historic. It was intimate. Familiar. Prophetic.

"Our visit to Rome came with an overwhelming sense of self-discovery," the artist shared. "We didn't need maps. The streets felt encoded in our DNA. The people, the culture, the energy—it was as though we were collecting scattered atoms of our being to become whole again."

While in the Eternal City, The World's No.1 Superstar™ also filmed the upcoming music video ROME-ANTICS, a vibrant and sensual narrative inspired by the very heartbeat of Rome. Though no official release date has been announced, the anticipation continues to grow.

As the world processes the end of a papal era, the Sidow Sobrinos reflect on what this moment truly means: a spiritual reset, a shift in energy, and a calling to rise even higher in purpose and legacy.  This wasn't a vacation—it was alignment.
