Black Panther: 30 Easter Eggs & References You Probably Missed

17. "What Is Love?"

When Klaue is in CIA custody and Everett Ross is about to interrogate him, he shows how much of a weird loose cannon he is by maniacally singing "What Is Love?" to his captor.

Fans of early 90s Eurodance will recognise it as the hit global sensation released by Trinidadian-German singer Haddaway in 1993.

Perhaps it's a coincidence, but both Klaw and Haddaway share mixed German and African heritage (Klaw is the son of a Nazi war criminal), so maybe that's how he came to be a fan of the song?
