Singer Yonatan Margi released his new single, "Trendy," on November 10, the day before his ex-girlfriend, singer Noa Kirel, married Daniel Peretz on November 11. The timing and lyrics of Margi's song have sparked widespread speculation online, with many interpreting the song as a pointed jab at Kirel.

Lyrics from "Trendy," which Margi had previewed in recent weeks, include lines such as "She counts her views every day... it's not healthy, her wedding didn't happen if it wasn't for Reels, and she doesn't care if she's almost out of breath, to be the hottest she'll burn everything." These words have led many listeners to believe Margi is settling a score with his "legendary ex."

Social media is divided, with some fans defending Margi's release as artistic freedom and a brilliant move, while critics deem the timing petty. Sources close to Margi maintain that the release schedule was planned in advance. The song has quickly become one of the most talked-about tracks of the period.

This follows a recent duet released by Kirel and Static titled "Obsessive Exes," in which Kirel alluded to her past relationship with Margi.
