00:00It's coming up. We have Zara Larson. I cannot believe she is here.
00:04And her outfit! Guys, what do you see her outfit?
00:07Oh my gosh, yes, the money!
00:08I love the outfit!
00:10Oh my gosh!
00:14So nice to meet you. I'm a big fan.
00:16I'm a big fan of you!
00:17I've seen a lot of your videos, so you're so good.
00:18Thank you so much!
00:19And of course, you too.
00:20Oh, I've always been the biggest fan of you.
00:23But, you know, tell us a bit about this outfit.
00:24She came wearing the money today. She's not playing around.
00:27Yeah, I mean, what is there to say?
00:29Maybe it's like a manifesting dress.
00:30Absolutely, yes. We're in the manifesting mode lately.
00:33What are you manifesting for 2025?
00:36A really good year for my music.
00:38I'm releasing my single very soon, Pretty Ugly, out for pre-save.
00:43I am releasing my album. I'm going on tour with Tate.
00:47I'm going on my own tour. A lot of things are happening.
00:50And it's been really exciting.
00:53And I feel like all the stuff that I've done in my life have kind of led me to this year.
00:58So I hope a lot of fun moments and success.
01:02Yes, yes.
01:03Well, speaking about that tour that you're doing, the Miss Possessive tour with Tate McRae,
01:08how are you feeling about that?
01:10Can you please tell us more about it?
01:11Because I'm sure it's going to be super exciting.
01:13And, I mean, have you ever met her before?
01:15Yes, I met her. She's so sweet.
01:17I met her briefly at her, I think it was around here actually, in the area,
01:21when she did the album release on a parking lot.
01:25Yes, love that.
01:26And it was really cool. She's very sweet.
01:28I also think it's a perfect match for our projects,
01:34because she's so fierce and she dances a lot.
01:37And that's kind of what I want to bring, bringing my dancers, bringing the energy.
01:41It's a little bit of sass.
01:43Absolutely.
01:44I think it's going to be, yeah, it's just like a perfect mix.
01:48Yes, yes.
01:49So I'm very excited.
01:50And something, like Meghan Trainor today is being honored with a Hitmaker.
01:53You are a Miss Hitmaker yourself as well.
01:55What is the key to a hit song?
01:57Ooh.
02:00You just feel it. I don't know.
02:01And there's so many different genres and different vibes, I guess.
02:09I think so many songs are really good songs.
02:12A hit for me is like a successful song.
02:15But a song can still be really, really amazing and good,
02:18even though it might not reach the big, big audience.
02:22Right, right.
02:23But I think when you hear a good song, you just feel it.
02:26You know it.
02:27Yeah.
02:28A hundred percent.
02:29Well, I hope that all aspiring artists out there are listening to this advice
02:32to making a hit song.
02:34Absolutely.
02:35Just do what feels good.
02:36Yeah, exactly.
02:37You just got to make sure you feel it in your heart.
02:38Absolutely.
02:39Thank you so much, Zara.
02:40Thank you so much.
02:41It was so good to see you.
02:43Great to see you.
