00:00Hi! Oh my goodness!

00:02It's his name Wilbur.

00:04You heard?

00:06The rumors are already spread about this famous man.

00:08Look, we heard about your date yesterday.

00:10I've been desperately waiting. Hi Wilbur!

00:12Everybody's loving Wilbur.

00:14And you match. Oh my goodness.

00:16And honestly, he matches the fit, so I love that it's like,

00:18we're coordinated today. You've been owning this pink era.

00:20I'm loving it. You debuted at Coachella.

00:22It was a gorgeous pink set.

00:24Okay, you also debuted your cheerleading moves,

00:26which I did not know you had those.

00:28Will you tell me about the decision

00:30to incorporate that into your show?

00:32Well, I've kind of always wanted to. I did cheer in high school.

00:34And I was always thinking when I was in cheer,

00:36it would be so cool if I was doing this,

00:38but singing. And so then for Coachella,

00:40I was like, what can I do

00:42that I'm good at?

00:44And I'm not the best dancer, so

00:46I was like, cheer stuns.

00:48Cheer stuns! And I heard they might even be incorporated

00:50on the tour.

00:52Okay.

00:54And I love, by the way, that you're petting Wilbur

00:56like during the interview.

00:58I know.

01:00He loves it.

01:02Oh my God. And then talk to me a little bit about the outfit.

01:04I heard it was inspired by somebody special.

01:06Priscilla Presley.

01:08Oh, I love that.

01:10Thank you, thank you.

01:12And I mean like, how'd you put it together?

01:14Amanda, she's wonderful and she helped me.

01:16It's a custom look and it's inspired by

01:18one of her fringe looks, Priscilla Presley.

01:20Oh, nice. Amazing.

01:22Amazing. I was talking about, I love how

01:24wide ranging your inspirations are.

01:26I mean, not just in fashion, but obviously sonically too.

01:28Tell me a bit about how,

01:30we've talked a lot about, you know, hip hop and country

01:32have always been really closely linked,

01:34but we're seeing that actually more and more.

01:36Definitely. What's that like for you? Because

01:38you've been doing this for a long time. It's not like you're new.

01:40Well, I think I just love both genres so much.

01:42I love soul too, and a lot of like older music.

01:44And whenever I make songs, it just comes out in a filter

01:48of all the stuff I love.

01:50And we're seeing that now resonate on the charts too.

01:52Hey girl.

01:54Yeah, it's crazy. Watching your glow up has been amazing.

01:56We're just so proud of you.

01:58Thank you guys, that's so nice.

02:00Have so much fun tonight with Wilbur, by the way.

02:02Thank you, I will. It's the best date that I've ever seen.

02:04You're the best.

02:06Bye buddy. See you later man.
