  • -I'm so excited about this.

  • This EP comes out September 6th.

  • And I just love that you're putting out new music.

  • Even though -- 'Cause you're busy. You're on tour.

  • -Yeah, I'm on tour. This came out of nowhere.

  • Like, I wanted to, like, take a break for a year.

  • And then my brain was like,

  • "Nope. You're gonna put out this."

  • -You got to do what your brain says, yeah.

  • -Yes, exactly. -How do you find time to record?

  • -I actually called my producer, Jon Levine, out.

  • And we basically just, like, made a little makeshift studio

  • on the tour bus, and, like, started, like, fleshing out --

  • Is it "flushing" or "fleshing?" I never knew.

  • I always mumble that word

  • 'cause I don't know if it's "flushing" or "fleshing" out.

  • -Yeah. I would say -- Fleshing, I think.

  • -Fleshing out songs. -Fleshing it out, yeah.

  • We could flush it out too. -Flush it out.

  • [ Laughter ] Both things could be done.

  • -But that sounds -- I think it's fleshing.

  • -I think it's fleshing, yeah. -Fleshing.

  • -But flushing is a word. -Anyway, yeah.

  • -But the song -- your new song, "Rooting for You."

  • -Yeah. -I love that.

  • -Thank you.

  • -What's the idea behind that song, "Rooting for You"?

  • -It's kind of like -- I feel like it's a similar situation

  • that we all kind of go through where we are having,

  • like, a friendship with someone

  • or maybe a relationship or whatever.

  • And you think it's going great, and then it takes a turn.

  • And you're kind of, like -- it's almost like watching a movie

  • and, like, seeing the protagonist go the wrong way

  • and you're like, "Dude." -"No."

  • -"I was rooting for you. Why'd you got to go and do that?"

  • -Yeah, like, "No, come on, man. I loved you."

  • -Yeah, that's kind of what happened to me.

  • -And you tried to get Tyra, was it, Tyra Banks?

  • -Yeah, 'cause I don't know if you guys have seen --

  • There's, like, a clip in "America's Next Top Model"

  • where she's yelling at this model who, I guess, like,

  • wasn't passionate about what she was doing.

  • I don't really know the context, but she was just --

  • She just goes -- Tyra goes to her.

  • She's like, "I was rooting for you.

  • We were all rooting for you. How dare you?!"

  • And I wanted to put that in. [ Applause ]

  • Impression, number one.

  • But yeah.

  • I tried to, like, get that in the beginning of the song,

  • but her people or her, like, they didn't answer my e-mail.

  • So I couldn't add it in. I couldn't add the sample in.

  • -Tyra, we were rooting for you.

  • -Rooting for you. -I mean, what are you doing?

  • [ Laughter ]

  • -If you see this, we're still rooting for you.

  • I can get it on the EP version.

  • -You're on tour with Shawn Mendes.

  • -Yeah. -Who's a buddy.

  • [ Cheers and applause ] Yeah, we love him.

  • -Yeah. -He's a great guy.

  • -He is. -He tweeted out something.

  • He said that he's been a fan of yours since 2013.

  • -Yeah.

  • -It's, like, an old tweet that he said, "Who is this girl?

  • She's dope. Does anyone know if she's got Twitter?"

  • [ Laughter ]

  • -"She's got." -Yeah, yeah.

  • Do you remember this at all? -I do, yeah.

  • I remember when it happened too 'cause my --

  • I wasn't, like, doing music at the time at all,

  • so, like, my Twitter had like 50 followers or whatever.

  • And I started getting all these crazy mentions

  • 'cause he was big on Vine at the time.

  • And I was like, "What's happening on my Twitter?

  • What's going on?"

  • And then I realized he tweeted me.

  • And I was, like, "Hey, that's, like, the Vine singer guy.

  • That's so cool."

  • And then I think I followed him then.

  • And he might have followed me.

  • And then we kind of kept in touch throughout all the years,

  • because we're from, like,

  • pretty much the same place in Canada almost.

  • Like, 40 minutes away from each other.

  • -That's so fun. -Yeah.

  • -Isn't that amazing it starts right there?

  • -And now we're touring together. It's so weird.

  • -That's great. And then you're doing your own tour.

  • -I am. I'm doing my own tour. October 21st is the first date.

  • -Good for you. -Yeah.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • -You told me about this fun thing -- this fun thing

  • that you do with your girlfriend when you're on tour.

  • It's just a fun joke. But can you explain the joke to me?

  • 'Cause I do have -- I have a straw.

  • -Yeah. Oh, my God. Okay, yeah.

  • -Here's your straw. It's a metal straw.

  • -Thank you. It's a metal straw. -Don't use plastic straws.

  • -Yes, save the turtles, everybody.

  • -Yeah, alright. [ Applause ]

  • So what is the bit? What is your bit?

  • -Okay. So do you want to take your mug?

  • -Sure. -So, okay, this is really dumb.

  • I don't even know where this stemmed from.

  • I think I was talking to my best friend and her brother.

  • And her brother mentioned how --

  • he mentioned his frustration with, like, big men and, like,

  • using little, tiny straws and how it was funny.

  • And then from there we just starting thinking of

  • how funny it would be, like,

  • if someone saying something super serious and then, like,

  • they go to take a sip of the straw

  • but they can't find the straw.

  • And then they instantly, like, become, like, not cool.

  • [ Laughs ] And we just do this.

  • -Alright, let's -- We'll make you laugh.

  • Let's be very serious. You do it.

  • -I'll do it and then you do one. -Okay, gotcha.

  • -Alright. Oh, my gosh. Now I'm nervous.

  • -No, it's alright.

  • -I'm so glad that our bit made it to TV, by the way.

  • I just have to say. -Yeah, well, yeah.

  • [ Laughter ] -Yeah. Okay, so, okay.

  • Listen, dude.

  • Man to man, you mess with my family, you mess with me.

  • And don't make me have to tell you again.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • Don't make me have to tell you again.

  • [ Applause ]

  • -I don't think I can top that. Alright.

  • I want to talk about Juanes. Tonight you're performing.

  • How did you guys hook up?

  • -I actually have a tour manager.

  • My tour manager used to tour-manage him

  • or used to manager him.

  • And they've been, like, life-long friends.

  • And so Juanes had a song

  • that he said would be really perfect for me.

  • So, you know, my tour manager

  • was like the middle man and kind of made that happen.

  • -Have you ever sung in Spanish before?

  • -Never in my life. It was, like, so terrifying.

  • And it was so cool

  • 'cause they let me write something in English

  • and then Juanes and his producer translated it to Spanish.

  • So, like, I got to, like, write a little Spanish part.

  • Well, I didn't write the Spanish part.

  • But you know. -Yeah.

  • -Like, now I'm singing it. -Yeah.

  • And you're gonna perform it tonight.

  • -Yeah, for the first time ever.

-I'm so excited about this.
