00:10
Like it was fun getting to do a Paula Abdul tribute
00:14
So that that was pretty fun
00:16
And honoring her I love Paula so much but just being able to like work with the stylist Andrews right there
00:22
Shout out to Andrew my stylist
00:25
It's just like opening like a whole new like it like gives you confidence when you feel good in what you're wearing
00:30
It's just like yeah, like pop star. I'm here
00:33
yeah
00:34
and I can perform and I'm like like people can look at me because I used to always be afraid of like being seen by
00:39
People cameras still scare me like all the photos and stuff still freak me out
00:43
but I feel like event maybe someday I'll get over it maybe I won't but
00:46
Yeah, but like wearing this you feel better being in front of a hundred cameras
00:52
Also being there honoring Paula like how was that to have like that reunion seeing it on social media?
00:56
I mean you guys look so happy. It was so nice. I loved being with her
00:59
she's just been so supportive from the beginning and
01:02
every single step of the way like when I was on Idol and then when I like went on my mission and then when I
01:08
came out
01:09
as queer and it's just really been beautiful to be able to
01:13
Have her as a friend have someone there in your corner
01:18
Like her like there is no one like her. She's forever our girl
01:22
Love what you did there and then also you got new music coming like really soon
01:27
So tell me what fans can expect and what are you excited about?
01:29
Yeah, I have a new song coming out March 28th, and it's called hell together. Okay? Yeah
01:35
Hell together about I think I can know it's really just like about unconditional love
01:41
So it's kind of thrown it kind of stirred up a lot of like my religious fans that still I've been watching what I do
01:48
And and they're like, how could you call your song that like how can you have fallen this way?
01:52
I'm like, well once you hear it, I think you'll understand what it means
01:56
So we're excited for it
01:58
And also what is an artist, you know like Paula that you can think back to that made you think you know what I'm queer
02:03
That made me think I'm queer like that was your queer awakening if you will that represents gay culture to you
02:10
It represents gay culture
02:15
I
02:17
Don't know I was gonna say like maybe like maroon 5, but they're gonna ruin 5, but they don't have to be queer videos
02:22
Yeah, somebody already said Backstreet Boys old videos did it to them actually boys, you know, I think for me was like Robin
02:29
Watching Robin
02:34
Her song handle me just like did something to me. Yeah
02:38
Yeah, well, thank you so much and good luck on your nomination and have fun performing tonight

Yeah, I'm not gonna win anything, but it'll be fun. It's fun to be here. Don't do that to yourself
02:46
You got to go in there with that company says confident
02:49
I already know like I'm confident in what I know like I'm okay with whatever happens and I know I'm not going in
02:53
I'm totally comfortable with that. So but I'm I'm calm. I'm looking forward to the performance - I've got all the dance choreo
03:00
