Will.i.am has compared Prince Harry to superhero Iron Man, saying that the two are 'pretty similar'.

The 'Scream & Shout' hitmaker said that the two have a lot in common, particularly as they're both perceived as fantasy figures by Americans (although it could be worth pointing out to Will.i.am that Iron Man actually is a fantasy figure).

Speaking at a fundraiser dinner for Prince Harry's Royal Foundation, Will.i.am said, "If you're American and you watch movies on the Royal Family historically, it seems like fantasy, but to see the human in Harry, he's a normal guy."

According to Capital FM, he also went on to say that Prince Harry has 'a beautiful heart' and 'makes you believe that your family is royalty as well'.

"He doesn't have to do charity, he doesn't have to care, he could just be wild," Will.i.am said. "If he was a character in a movie, he would be like Iron Man – he's a dude, he's a party guy, he's a technology guy, he comes from royalty, but he's a real person."

He added, "Prince Harry and Iron Man are pretty similar. I'm going to get my tech guys to make him a special suit so Prince Harry can fly around the world."

Will.i.am is no stranger to the royal family, as he donated $780,000 last year to a trust set up by Prince Charles to benefit British youths in need.
