Then he explained, "On September 10, 2021, I tweeted, ‘After “Jackie” and “Spencer,” there’s a Warholian quality to this aspect of Pablo’s work that will likely include one more single name portrait of a lady. Not sure which lady that will be, but I’ll be here for it.'"

"That did not happen. I did send the tweet, but Pablo did not see it".
