Zara Larsson Tries Beyoncé’s Dubai Riff and British Accents on Capital Buzz’s ‘What The Deck?’

Zara Larsson Came Ready to Sing, Switch Accents and Cause Chaos

Zara Larsson is back in interview-game mode, and Capital Buzz apparently decided a normal sit-down would be far too sensible.

For the latest edition of What The Deck?, the Swedish pop powerhouse gets thrown a stack of prompts that lead her toward one very specific challenge: attempting Beyoncé’s now-famous Dubai vocal riff, trying on British accents and generally proving that Zara Larsson with a microphone and a little chaos is a very reliable combination.

Yes, Zara Larsson Attempts the Beyoncé Dubai Riff

The Beyoncé reference is the immediate headline-maker. Larsson takes a swing at the viral vocal run associated with Beyoncé’s private 2023 Dubai performance — the kind of riff that has since become its own little pop-vocal obstacle course online.

And Zara is exactly the kind of singer you want attempting it. She has never been shy about actually singing, and the whole exercise lands somewhere between serious vocal flex and knowing pop-girl mischief.

Then Come the British Accents

The vocal gymnastics do not stop with Beyoncé. Capital Buzz also gets Larsson trying out British accents, which is where the interview fully abandons any remaining possibility of behaving normally.

That loose, game-driven setup suits her. Zara has always been quick enough in interviews to turn a throwaway prompt into something memorable, and What The Deck? gives her just enough structure to keep the conversation moving without sanding off any of the personality.

The timing also finds Larsson well into her Midnight Sun era, after a run that has put renewed focus on just how technically strong — and entertainingly unserious — she can be when the cameras are rolling.

Basically: give Zara a deck of cards, a Beyoncé riff and permission to be weird, and six minutes disappear immediately.
