Transcript

00:00In your song L.A., you say I'm on my third glass of wine trying to find conversation in a room with bigger names.

00:05Name one celeb you met that left you disappointed.

00:09Ahem.

00:11Hey, what's up? It's Kelsey Ballerini, and I'm about to take some cheap shots with Cosmo.

00:1530s do hit different.

00:19Ah! Okay.

00:22How do you think you're going to deal with this?

00:26I'm an open book. I overshare for a living. What could go wrong?

00:31In round one, I'll be taking shots at myself. Easy.

00:34The drinks are rosé. Are they?

00:38I love rosé. Four are regular, and one is spiked with some questionable vodka.

00:44Okay, here we go.

00:48Oh, what's your biggest fashion regrets?

00:51I had like a real infatuation with glitter rompers, and I do still wear them on stage.

00:56It's just like, I feel like the elevated version with like a little booty out, tasteful amount of booty.

01:01One time I wore a light-up romper for an awards show, but it was like proper.

01:06Like everything was wired, so it was really thick.

01:09So it just kind of felt like I was like wearing like a wall circuit.

01:13And I don't know if it really was good enough for that to work.

01:17Like, I don't think that had the bang for the buck.

01:23Okay, here we go. Okay.

01:24I just read the first line, and I already know that I'm stressed. Okay.

01:28In your song, Interlude, full-length version, you say,

01:31must have hit a nerve, damn, people got offended.

01:33What's one thing you've read about yourself that you didn't give a f**k about?

01:36One thing I've read about myself that I didn't care about.

01:41Sorry. It's my nervous energy.

01:44I have big nervous energy.

01:47I'm going to drink to that.

01:55I can't tell. I think it's good.

01:57The cheap shot.

01:58Oh.

02:02Please.

02:04It's child's play.

02:08What's my most toxic Virgo trait?

02:10I have a massive control problem.

02:12Like I have to control everything, but then I'll be like,

02:15well, why didn't you plan that?

02:17And everyone's like, because you don't let me do anything.

02:21Because you don't let me do anything.

02:23I just want everything to be perfect all the time.

02:25For everyone.

02:26The intention is really good.

02:27The impact is really not good.

02:29And that's what we've learned in therapy.

02:30Thank you, Kristen.

02:33In honor of your song, Hole in the Bottle,

02:35what's the most drunk you've been during a performance?

02:38I do have an answer to this.

02:40And I'm not going to tell you.

02:52Okay.

02:54In your song, Two Things, you say,

02:56I love New York City, but I can't stay at the Carlyle anymore.

03:01What really happened at the Carlyle?

03:04Bro.

03:05I mean, this song really does say it all.

03:08And that's the nice thing about writing it exactly how you want to

03:12in three minutes and 12 seconds.

03:14Does that count?

03:15It doesn't.

03:17Oh no, I already feel it in my esophagus.

03:19It's like right here.

03:21I had two sips of a rose.

03:22This is insane.

03:2430s do hit different.

03:31Oh my God.

03:32Okay.

03:33Round one complete.

03:34Round two, Timed Shots.

03:36These drinks are gin and tonics.

03:38Four are made with really yummy, good gin.

03:40And one is made with like the sticky floor of the bar kind of gin.

03:46I love a game.

03:47I love a competition.

03:49What were your encore songs for the first time tour?

03:52I think it was Just Love Me Like You Mean It.

03:54There was a second one.

03:55There was?

03:56High School.

03:57The first time.

03:58Ah!

03:59Yes.

04:00Yes.

04:04During season two, episode 11 of Southern Charm,

04:06oh God, it haunts me forever.

04:08How much did you bid to go on a date with Craig Conover?

04:11I don't remember because I know I'm timed,

04:14but I have to tell this story to clear this up.

04:16I was on radio tour,

04:17and I was doing a show for the radio station on a boat,

04:21and they were filming Southern Charm on the boat,

04:24and I didn't know that.

04:25And so I was just there playing Love Me Like You Mean It,

04:28being like, hey, radio station, please play my song.

04:30And then little did I know,

04:31my label had set up the fact that I was going to bid on a date.

04:34I didn't know.

04:35I get pushed into frame.

04:36Exactly.

04:37I get pushed into frame, bid it, got the date.

04:40They auctioned it off on the radio station.

04:44For charity.

04:45You never went on the date?

04:46No, some winner from the radio station got it.

04:51You were probably better off.

04:52Yeah, everything is great, as it turned out.

04:55But that does still replay often.

04:58They got reruns.

05:01Lots of them.

05:03Sorry to this man.

05:06You get to drink that.

05:07I do?

05:08But I gave you the tea.

05:10Does that not count?

05:11I am so grateful.

05:12Oh my God.

05:13Brutal.

05:14Brutal.

05:15I don't know if I'm a gin girlie.

05:20Absolutely not a gin girlie.

05:22Oh, I'm absolutely not a gin girl.

05:24Oh.

05:25That was the cheap shot again.

05:26It was?

05:29What is wrong with me?

05:31This year is going to get better, I swear.

05:33In your 2015 song, Yeah Boy, how many times do you say boy?

05:37Yeah boy.

05:47Chorus three times?

05:48Fifteen.

05:50Seventeen.

05:51There's probably a tag.

05:52There's a bridge.

05:53Twenty-five.

05:55Twenty-seven.

05:57Twenty-nine.

06:01I do?

06:02And I call that songwriting.

06:05That's...

06:062015.

06:08Ten years ago.

06:10Guys, we're all grown up now.

06:11We're all adults here.

06:12We're all adults here now.

06:13Thank God.

06:14Okay.

06:15Yeet.

06:17In 2017, you were nominated for a Best New Artist Grammy.

06:20Name the other nominees.

06:21Okay.

06:23Chance the Rapper.

06:25Anderson .Paak.

06:27Maren Morris.

06:29The Chainsmokers.

06:30That's right.

06:31Really?

06:32That was a big slay.

06:34That's a good category.

06:35Here we go.

06:37Name three other celebrities that share your birthday.

06:42I know Jennifer Nettles from Sugar Land.

06:44Shares my birthday.

06:47Can I have a hint or phone a friend?

06:50Sydney.

06:51Sweeney.

06:52I knew she was a Virgo.

06:53Sydney Sweeney.

06:57Jennifer Hudson.

06:59Oh, Queens.

07:08I have to do another interview after this and that is so daunting.

07:13Round three.

07:14The category is Cheap Shots.

07:16I will be taking literal cheap shots at everyone.

07:19The drinks are Tequila Sunrises, a personal favorite.

07:22Four are made with expensive tequila.

07:24And one is made from a $15 bottle.

07:27Did it have a worm in it?

07:28We'll never know.

07:30In your song L.A., you say,

07:31I'm on my third glass of wine trying to find conversation in a room with bigger names.

07:35Name one celeb you met that left you disappointed.

07:46I'm going to say it, but then I'm going to say that it was better.

07:49I'm going to say it, but then I'm going to say that it was better.

07:54I can't do that though.

08:02The first time I met Vanessa Hudgens, it was not good.

08:05And I'm such a big High School Musical fan.

08:07I'm such a big fan.

08:08And I was so excited.

08:09And it just was not the right timing.

08:11And it was weird.

08:12But then we sat next to each other or near each other at the Michael Kors fashion show.

08:17And she was so lovely.

08:18And so time heals all.

08:21And you know what?

08:22We're all in this together.

08:26I have weird days where people meet me and I'm probably an asshole.

08:29And you weren't an asshole.

08:30That's not what I'm saying.

08:34Oh my God.

08:36Okay.

08:37Oh boy.

08:39Rank your fellow voice vocalists from most to least talented.

08:43That's insane of you.

08:44Adam Levine, John Legend, and Michael Bublé.

08:47I'm on a group chat that lights up every time any of us talk about each other.

08:51I cannot do this.

08:52I cannot do it.

08:53And I won't.

08:54I simply won't.

09:00That was nice.

09:03That wasn't the cheap shot.

09:05Yeah.

09:06Victory.

09:08I will say I love and adore all three of these guys.

09:11They are good humans and great artists.

09:14And none of them are the least talented.

09:17Period.

09:19You met your boyfriend Chase Jokes by sliding into his DMs.

09:22Name one celeb who sent you a 40 DM.

09:25Not a single one.

09:28Not a single one.

09:29Trust me.

09:30If I had tea, I'd spill it.

09:31At this point, look at me.

09:33What do I have to lose?

09:34No, no, no.

09:35Nope.

09:36No one.

09:37That's why I was shooting shots.

09:39I was like, it's cold out here.

09:44Oh my God.

09:45Okay.

09:47One of the following collaborations has to go.

09:52Tell us which one and why.

09:54Better version with Fletcher,

09:56Hole in the Bottle with Shania Twain,

09:59You're Drunk, Go Home with Kelly Clarkson and Carly Pierce,

10:02or The Other Girl with Halsey.

10:05Do I answer this or do I just take a shot?

10:08I have an answer.

10:11You might be in the next question.

10:13I can't.

10:14I don't reckon I can.

10:16I don't reckon I can answer that.

10:21That wasn't a cheap shot.

10:23Yes.

10:25Okay.

10:26You're right.

10:29In your song, Doing My Best,

10:31In your song, Doing My Best,

10:32you say,

10:33I was friends with a pop star,

10:34I put him on track four,

10:35wish I could take it back,

10:36I would have never asked

10:37if I knew we wouldn't talk anymore.

10:38What really happened with a pop star on track four?

10:43God.

10:44You know how sometimes when you're friends with people

10:46and then you involve work into it,

10:47sometimes it just makes it weird

10:49because then your teams get involved

10:50and there's money talks

10:51and that's natural for a collaboration.

10:54It's totally normal.

10:55That's what happened

10:56and I wish I would have preserved a friendship

10:58rather than done a song.

10:59But,

11:00life do be like that.

11:03And also,

11:04that song was never meant to throw shade.

11:05It was only meant to say,

11:07I'm sorry,

11:08I shouldn't have done the song with you.

11:09We were friends.

11:10But,

11:11alas.

11:15How do you think that went?

11:17Fine.

11:18I feel fine.

11:20I think.

11:21I'm a little bit panicked.

11:22My Virgo control tendency is kicking in

11:24where I'm already spiraling a little bit.

11:30Cheers to you, Cheap Shots.

11:31Thanks for having me, Cosmo.

11:32Come see me on tour

11:33where I'm much more put together and glittery.

11:36I'm also on the season of NBC The Voice.

11:39So,

11:40tune in.

11:41It's amazing.

11:42I'll see you there.

11:43Or anywhere else.

11:44I'm around.
