WEBVTT - Behind The Abeja Reina Tour

0:00:03.680 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>This tour is coming. Like I told myself, I'm gonna

0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:08.720
<v Speaker 1>do everything I want to do. I don't care what

0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:11.480
<v Speaker 1>anyone has to say. I just want to make my

0:00:11.520 --> 0:00:15.120
<v Speaker 1>audience happy. For the first time, I have like a

0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:18.799
<v Speaker 1>theme when it comes to a wardrobe, leather and gean

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:24.240
<v Speaker 1>and bandanas, because that's who I am, that love that

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I get from the people that go see me. It

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.480
<v Speaker 1>still blows my mind that people took the time out

0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:31.360
<v Speaker 1>of their night. They could be anywhere else in the

0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:34.120
<v Speaker 1>world and they decided to buy a ticket to a

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:42.240
<v Speaker 1>cheeky show. Hello and welcome to another episode of cheek

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:44.639
<v Speaker 1>Ease and Chill. I'm your host cheek Ease, and let

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:47.280
<v Speaker 1>me tell you I'm super excited about this episode because

0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>today I'm pulling back the curtain on my right not tour.

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:54.560
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna be talking about everything from makeup and wardrobe

0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>to how I decide which songs I'm going to perform,

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>sat my set list, and be sure to stay too

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>until the end for some juicy Q and as so,

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>sit back, grab a drink and enjoy this episode of

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:15.679
<v Speaker 1>cheek Ease and Chill. Oh Yes, life on the road.

0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>It's actually one of those things I enjoy the most

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>about being a singer, and I'm gonna tell you why,

0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:24.680
<v Speaker 1>because I personally like staying at hotel rooms. That's weird, right,

0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>but I do. I feel like I'm on vacation in

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:28.720
<v Speaker 1>a way way, but I'm actually there to work. But

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I get to relax more. I don't know, I feel

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:34.160
<v Speaker 1>like it's more me time. And now regarding my album

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 1>recording it, I'm done, officially done recording the album, but

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to say that this one was I think

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 1>the toughest to finish. The studio, to me, is a

0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>very personal place. I like to be kind of by myself.

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 1>I like, you know, the lights to be damned. I

0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:56.440
<v Speaker 1>like candles to be lit. I drink a little bit

0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 1>of team for a long time, you guys, going to

0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 1>the studio, oh, was like a drag because you can

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 1>hear every single mistake when you're in the studio. So

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>it's like I felt very intimidated, for the lack of

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>a better word, like I just felt like, oh my gosh,

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Like I almost preferred singing live than in the studio

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 1>because like literally it's just you feel closed in. And

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:22.880
<v Speaker 1>with time and with experience, now I've learned to love

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the studio, I just feel like it's me time. It's

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 1>me and the mic, and I get to express myself

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:29.239
<v Speaker 1>and I get to release tension. And yes, it's a

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 1>little stressful because I'm a perfectionist and I want everything

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 1>to come out right. I'll do take after take after

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 1>take until I get it exactly how I want it.

0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>But it helps me release. I forget about everything in

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:41.359
<v Speaker 1>the world and I just focus on that track that

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm recording. And I'm not one to like sit there

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.360
<v Speaker 1>and finish my record in two weeks. Like there are

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>people that say, Okay, I got my songs, I'm gonna

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 1>go in there, and I'm just gonna like record my album,

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 1>my entire album in two weeks. I can't do that.

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm more of like, I have the song, I'm gonna

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:58.760
<v Speaker 1>go in there. I live with the song, and that's

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.960
<v Speaker 1>why it's taken me on most two years to finish.

0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>So anyways, let's go back to the tour because I

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>just got back from my second date, which was in Dallas.

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>The first one was in pol Casino and it was

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 1>sold out, so we started off with the right foot.

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>You guys, Policastino, everyone that was there, Thank you. So much.

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.200
<v Speaker 1>It was a sold out show and Dallas was too,

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 1>so that's exciting. And now we're gonna be going I

0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.720
<v Speaker 1>have one in Northern California and then I'm gonna be

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.799
<v Speaker 1>going to Mexico with the tour. The album comes out

0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>May twelve. He was, I'm gonna be in Mexico. Aciendo

0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 1>is the lad so I'm really excited. I'm gonna be

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 1>an O Passo too. So the tour, the dates are

0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>going well, Mr Bull. My manager keeps adding dates and

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm gonna tell you, it's crazy because before

0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>every show, I'm very, very nervous, Like I get so nervous,

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:00.600
<v Speaker 1>and then when I get up there, I'm like, okay, cool.

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just like I know how to do this,

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 1>like what am I tripping off of? But I get

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>so nervous. And I feel like it's good to be nervous, though,

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>because that means that you're passionate about what you're doing.

0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:17.840
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know, but it is tiring, especially because

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to give my very best, especially with this tour,

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 1>because the set list took me four hours to put together,

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:27.159
<v Speaker 1>you guys, four hours on a Sunday. I need to

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 1>like envision the song. I need to like listen to

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 1>the songs back to back to see if the flow

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:34.520
<v Speaker 1>goes well, because I want people to obviously start on

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>a high note and then bring them down. And you know,

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:41.360
<v Speaker 1>I sing love songs and then songs to my mom

0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.159
<v Speaker 1>and I cry a little bit. Sometimes sometimes I do,

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.279
<v Speaker 1>sometimes I don't. These last two shows I have, I've

0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 1>cried and then I bring them back up. So it's

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>like for me, it's like what do I want to

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>see as a fan. That's why it's so important, Like

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 1>how I want the intro to look, what I want

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 1>to say in the intro before I go on stage

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:58.239
<v Speaker 1>the first song I want to sing, removing certain songs

0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:00.160
<v Speaker 1>that don't go with the flow, you know what I'm mean.

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:02.960
<v Speaker 1>And it's hard because a lot of o G fans

0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:05.520
<v Speaker 1>want to hear songs from my first album. But now

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>this is called the tour, so I have out of

0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:11.240
<v Speaker 1>the songs that makes sense with the story I'm trying

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 1>to tell, because that's what I'm doing with this show.

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling a story. I'm bringing you on the experience.

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.200
<v Speaker 1>So it can be stressful, it can be very tiring.

0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 1>It's late nights. You guys. But it's worth it. It's

0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:28.160
<v Speaker 1>been worth it because that love that I get from

0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the people that go see me, it still blows my mind.

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>It blows my mind to know that people took the

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 1>time out of their day, out of their night. They

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.440
<v Speaker 1>could be anywhere else in the world, and they decided

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.600
<v Speaker 1>to buy a ticket to a cheeky show. And I

0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 1>just feel like this responsibility in a good way to

0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.200
<v Speaker 1>give my best to make sure that that hour and

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.000
<v Speaker 1>a half, that hour and forty five minutes that you're

0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:53.159
<v Speaker 1>with me and listening to me, that you're enjoying every

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.839
<v Speaker 1>single part of my show, even if something goes wrong,

0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.280
<v Speaker 1>because especially on the first show, ship went wrong with

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.040
<v Speaker 1>you then monitors with the DJ, like certain songs didn't

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:04.479
<v Speaker 1>come in when they were supposed to, and things that

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I see but maybe even the audience hasn't notice, but

0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I notice it and it bothers me. But even that,

0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm very like, I go with the flow. I'm just like,

0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:13.039
<v Speaker 1>you know what it is, what it is. It's the

0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:15.599
<v Speaker 1>first show I tell the audience. I'm very open, but

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>because I want them to know that it's important to

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.919
<v Speaker 1>me that the money that you're investing in my show

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to be completely worth it. So for me,

0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it's like I take that ship serious. I take it

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.239
<v Speaker 1>so serious because it still blows my mind. I'm just like, Wow,

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>all these people are here for me. Like when you

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>guys are singing, you know the songs, those of you

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>that have been with me on tour or have been

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>with me to one of the shows. Like sometimes I'm like,

0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:40.159
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, like i want to sit there and

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 1>just cry like a little baby. Like I'm just like,

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.000
<v Speaker 1>oh my goodness, these people love me. It just feels

0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:47.840
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful. But then I'm like, no, you gotta be

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 1>a bad bitch. You gotta be a bad bitch. You

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 1>gotta get up. You can't be crying. So I'm just like,

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, come on, let's go, you know. And and

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:56.520
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a little hard, but now i feel like

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I've gotten the hang of it where I'm like, it's

0:06:58.520 --> 0:06:59.840
<v Speaker 1>okay to cry a little bit, but you gotta pick

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>it up. I've learned to get the hang of that

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:05.240
<v Speaker 1>because girl, our boys, men and women that are listening,

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm a cancer and we could be very emotional creatures.

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>So controlling my emotions has been a task in itself,

0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.520
<v Speaker 1>especially on stage, but I think I think I've dominated

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>it now. Talking about my band Labanda, it's very hard,

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:26.720
<v Speaker 1>very very difficult to find a responsible band because mosticos

0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>can be and of course, especially like if we don't

0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>have like a full on tour with like I don't know,

0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 1>a hundred dates, it's a little hard because vans the musicians,

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.440
<v Speaker 1>they have other jobs and they have families that they

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:43.720
<v Speaker 1>have to provide for, so sometimes they come and they go.

0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 1>So that's been a little bit. I think the most

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.440
<v Speaker 1>difficult thing since I started my career is finding a

0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 1>banda that is going to stick. And I think I

0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.880
<v Speaker 1>finally found one, and it just gives me so much

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>peace of mind because I've been working with this guy

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:00.760
<v Speaker 1>and he's like the manager and head of the banda.

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.120
<v Speaker 1>So even if one leaves, he makes sure that he finds,

0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, another trump and he puts him in line

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>and they rehearse because rehearsing is so important. I was

0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:14.240
<v Speaker 1>actually in Brownsville for about I don't know, like a week,

0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.920
<v Speaker 1>like four or five days rehearsing, because before I would

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>rehearse one or two days. But I was like, I

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 1>need to set these days aside and rehearse so that

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 1>we have that connection and you could tell we're family,

0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>me and my musicians, you know, and that the flow

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:33.680
<v Speaker 1>goes well. Even if we mess up, we know where

0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to pick up. It's very important to have that relationship

0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:41.679
<v Speaker 1>with your musicians and Sambien and I think, finally, thank god,

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I have found that and I feel very comfortable, and

0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I think rehearsing and that's one thing that it's like,

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 1>you got to be disciplined enough to say I'm going

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.760
<v Speaker 1>to set days aside for whatever it is, even if

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:55.680
<v Speaker 1>you're not a singer. It's it's just really striving and

0:08:55.760 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 1>seeking that knowledge and practicing and rehearsing and making sure

0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.760
<v Speaker 1>that you are intentional about giving your best at whatever

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>it is that you're doing. And so to me, rehearsing

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 1>it's super important. I like to be at my sound

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>checks because every stage is different, every sound is different,

0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>every mic is different. I have my own mic, but

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>even like at the parlor, I wasn't able to use

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>my personal mic. So I was worried because I'm like,

0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:21.560
<v Speaker 1>wait a second, this is my mic. You grow an

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 1>attachment to your mic. So when they said, oh we

0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:26.520
<v Speaker 1>can't connect it, we don't have the device to connect

0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>your mic. I had to use one from theirs, and

0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:30.559
<v Speaker 1>I was a little nervous, but then I did my

0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:32.320
<v Speaker 1>sound check and I was like, okay, cool, Like I

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 1>got the feeling the mic and I became one and

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I was like, all right, make sure that this is

0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the MIC I'm going to use because I'm already leveled out.

0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's one thing, like I've seen it myself when

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I go to my sound check sometimes I'm the only

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 1>one there when it's like a bunch of artists and

0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:48.320
<v Speaker 1>they just send their musicians. But for me, it's like

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to be there. I want to feel the stage.

0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to see what I'm looking at. I want

0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.400
<v Speaker 1>to be able to go to every corner and no,

0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>like not just walk up on stage and not know

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.559
<v Speaker 1>where what I'm doing. So for me, it's like when

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 1>they say practice makes perfect, that's just the truth. Believe me,

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 1>you guys, there's these are things that you guys don't see.

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 1>There are some people that I'm sure I can say

0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>or want to say, ah no, Ganda like I'm sorry,

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:16.079
<v Speaker 1>but I'm not taking that any more. Now. I'm like,

0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I know exactly what I'm doing and I have put

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:20.840
<v Speaker 1>in the hard work, and I know about music. I

0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>know what I want, especially with this album, especially with

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:26.440
<v Speaker 1>this tour, Like I put everything. I put the set

0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>list together, I put my track list from my album together,

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I did the intros, and I wrote everything like I

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:34.680
<v Speaker 1>know what I want to hear. I have the ear.

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:36.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was raised in this you guys, like

0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>I was born in the music. Now I'm like, wait,

0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:42.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna let anybody's negative comments steer me from

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 1>believing in myself and knowing I know what I'm talking about,

0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.959
<v Speaker 1>and not only that I put the work. I really do.

0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Like for me, it's important even more so for me

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.839
<v Speaker 1>because my mom is who she is and I have

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:59.720
<v Speaker 1>been constantly compared to her and people may think, oh

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:03.079
<v Speaker 1>Ki's probably watches her mom, and because I've gotten it

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:04.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot where like oh my god, chick, he's like

0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.760
<v Speaker 1>you made me cry. Because I do meet in greats

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 1>after the show's right, and I have the conversations with

0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:10.959
<v Speaker 1>it's not just take a picture with me, and by no,

0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:12.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, how did you like it? Did you enjoy yourself?

0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 1>And like, oh my god, yes, chick, he is like

0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you made me cry. I saw your mom so many times,

0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.360
<v Speaker 1>like you look so much like her, Like I went

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>to her concert, and it's crazy because it's not like

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:22.599
<v Speaker 1>I sit there and watch my mom. I still to

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:24.680
<v Speaker 1>this day can't watch my mom. You guys, it's still

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 1>very hard. Just maybe like a few months ago, I

0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:30.319
<v Speaker 1>watched the reality show and I was watching it there,

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 1>but I can't watch it for long. It it's still

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:34.120
<v Speaker 1>hard for me to sit and watch my mom's concerts

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>because it makes me miss her. So it's not like

0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:37.960
<v Speaker 1>I sit here and study my mom. It's just I'm

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:49.360
<v Speaker 1>her daughter. No say like get set, Absolutely not, because

0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:52.000
<v Speaker 1>she's my mom. People that try to talk about it,

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:53.560
<v Speaker 1>first of all, it's kind of like, yeah, well, who

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:54.880
<v Speaker 1>do you want me to look like? You know what

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean? Like, who do you want me to act like?

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.400
<v Speaker 1>That's like that was my mother, my father, my friend,

0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:01.719
<v Speaker 1>my boss. I don't under stand. And it's been ten years,

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:03.400
<v Speaker 1>you guys, It's gonna be ten years in December. But

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 1>I said, the thing here is it's important for me

0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>that I give my best to you guys, which means

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to make it to my rehearsals. I'm going

0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 1>to make it to my sound check. I'm going to

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:15.200
<v Speaker 1>make sure that every piece of my show has a

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:19.120
<v Speaker 1>touch of cheek ease here and there, especially with this tour.

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting in a DJ. I added a DJ. I

0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 1>have a saxophone. A lot of people in regional don't

0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:25.880
<v Speaker 1>have a saxophone. I have a saxophone. I added a saxophone.

0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Added a DJ because there are times when I want

0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:30.720
<v Speaker 1>to get crazy and I want to like twerk on stage,

0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:31.760
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going to do that, and I want to

0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:33.400
<v Speaker 1>have my DJ there to play a song for me.

0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:36.600
<v Speaker 1>And while I'm talking, I want little beats because I

0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:40.360
<v Speaker 1>want to wrap. So this tour is coming like conto.

0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 1>I told myself, I'm gonna do everything I want to do.

0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Band them a little bit of urban, I I wrap

0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:48.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. Depends on how buzzed I am. I'm

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 1>going to do it all in this tour, and I

0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.560
<v Speaker 1>don't care what anyone has to say. I just want

0:12:53.160 --> 0:13:04.560
<v Speaker 1>to make my audience happy. I feel like my balls

0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:06.400
<v Speaker 1>just dropped, Like I don't know how to explain it.

0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I knew and I've always been a confident woman, but

0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:11.719
<v Speaker 1>this confidence that I feel, especially now on stage, I

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:14.240
<v Speaker 1>feel so different. I feel like that's the best way

0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I can explain it, like my balls dropped, like I'm

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:18.640
<v Speaker 1>a woman now and you guys are gonna be able

0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:19.920

<v Speaker 1>very proud of myself because I've been wearing my the

0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Hannah throughout like almost the entire show. Usually I would

0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:34.080
<v Speaker 1>take it off like it would bother me, but like,

0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like I'm having like a really good

0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 1>relationship with my the Hannah. So now i want the

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Hannah's in red and black and blue and pink, so

0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 1>you guys will be able to see a lot more

0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:46.280
<v Speaker 1>of that. Oh and I'm getting like ten different outfits

0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:50.000
<v Speaker 1>done and customed to my body for these tours, so

0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be able to see different outfits. But it's

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:56.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna be ten outfits custom made for this tour, so

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll be able to switch them out between dates and stuff.

0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:01.280
<v Speaker 1>So it's saving me money. I've learned. I'm like, okay, wait,

0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Like I can't just be buying a new outfit for

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:05.560
<v Speaker 1>every show, Like I have to buy a series of

0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 1>them and change them, you know, have them for this tour,

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 1>and I want to save them because I want to

0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 1>be able to have my own like museum one day

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>of like wardrobe, have a whole plan. And when I'm

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>on tour, it is important for me, especially the day

0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 1>of the show, to work out. I do cardio because

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I feel like It just gives me more energy, obviously,

0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:29.120
<v Speaker 1>and it helps my vocals, like clear my throat. So

0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll do cardio in the morning. Sometimes I do. Wait,

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.680
<v Speaker 1>it just depends, and I try to eat as clean

0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:38.280
<v Speaker 1>as I can on show day because my stomach gets

0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:42.400
<v Speaker 1>bloated really quickly, so I like to have just I'll

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 1>go light especially before my show, like approachein shake or

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 1>some chicken or a soup or something that's not too heavy,

0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.880
<v Speaker 1>so that I can just feel comfortable on stage. After

0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the show is another story, because after the show, I've

0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.640
<v Speaker 1>done so much cardio on stage that I get really hungry.

0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna lie to try to watch what I eat,

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:05.479
<v Speaker 1>but honestly, like my body craves bread and wants sugar,

0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:08.440
<v Speaker 1>So there are times where I'm just like, okay, instead

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 1>of having two tacos, I'll have one. But after the

0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:18.080
<v Speaker 1>show is so see Mellois gustos, and I'll have especially

0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.399
<v Speaker 1>something sugary, because it's like it's a lot of energy

0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.760
<v Speaker 1>you give out, you know, And especially me, I do

0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:26.120
<v Speaker 1>my show, my hour and a half show, and then

0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:29.840
<v Speaker 1>I do meeting greets after usually anywhere from eight hundred

0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:31.719
<v Speaker 1>people of meeting greats and I sit there and I'm

0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:33.959
<v Speaker 1>standing and I'm taking pictures and I'm like talking. So

0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.919
<v Speaker 1>by the time we're done, a bitch is hungry, so

0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I eat. Okay. Now, a lot of people might think

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:45.560
<v Speaker 1>that after my shows, I get crunk and I get

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.720
<v Speaker 1>crazy and I drink and I continue drinking. I don't.

0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I think I can count on one hand, maybe literally

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:57.240
<v Speaker 1>three times mucho. It's a lot if I've partied after

0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:00.440
<v Speaker 1>a show, especially because I do my meeting greets after

0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:03.400
<v Speaker 1>my show, I like to just eat, put on my pj's,

0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:06.800
<v Speaker 1>take off my makeup, and maybe watch a movie and relax.

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:11.480
<v Speaker 1>It's very, very extremely rare if I go out and

0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I party afterwards, or I have after parties, and even

0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:16.119
<v Speaker 1>if I say I'm going to have an after party,

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:20.119
<v Speaker 1>like the time that I performed at the Grove, I

0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:23.040
<v Speaker 1>had this whole thing plant. I had invited all my friends.

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:26.159
<v Speaker 1>We were going to party afterwards. It was like the

0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:28.479
<v Speaker 1>last day of my playlist tour, and we were supposed

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:32.400
<v Speaker 1>to party at the Rumor Room, my friends club. Everyone went.

0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:36.200
<v Speaker 1>After my meeting greens Dude, I was exhausted and I

0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:39.600
<v Speaker 1>was way too buzzed. So I went to my room

0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:41.679
<v Speaker 1>and I ordered food and I fell asleep and everyone

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.199
<v Speaker 1>was waiting for me at the after party, and I

0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:46.680
<v Speaker 1>felt so bad because I was like, I'm a homebody.

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm introverted. Like it's crazy because I feel like when

0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:52.439
<v Speaker 1>you're on stage you're giving so much of yourself that

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I felt like, sometimes I feel like going to an

0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.400
<v Speaker 1>after party and mingling, and so it's just sometimes it's

0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.639
<v Speaker 1>too much. Like I've learned that what I do is

0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:05.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm extroverted. That's cheekies, but Jenna is introverted. I like

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:07.960
<v Speaker 1>to be with the people that I feel comfortable with.

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I like to be in my room. I love watching movies,

0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I love reading books. I love just even eating in bed.

0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:17.960
<v Speaker 1>That makes me so happy. So I'm not that much

0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.119
<v Speaker 1>of a party animal. But when it's time to party

0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:32.000
<v Speaker 1>at party, I can throw back those tiquila shots. I can't.

0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:35.560
<v Speaker 1>That's just me, guys, and people ask me this all

0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the time, like do I go sight see when, like

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:41.439
<v Speaker 1>for instance, like when I was in Dallas. I'm very

0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 1>to myself. I like to spend a lot of time

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>in my room. I'll go to the gym. Most of

0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:48.800
<v Speaker 1>the time. I eat in my room. It's very rare

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:50.919
<v Speaker 1>when I go out to a restaurant when I'm on

0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:55.160
<v Speaker 1>tour because I'm so focused and I'm so about like

0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:58.040
<v Speaker 1>what I'm doing and the task ahead that I don't

0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>really enjoy much. I want to get better writ it though,

0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:04.680
<v Speaker 1>like see and visit landmarks and take pictures and stuff

0:20:04.720 --> 0:20:07.080
<v Speaker 1>like that, mingle a little bit more. But for the

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:10.080
<v Speaker 1>most part, about nine of the time, I stay in

0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 1>my room and I just read and I relax that

0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:16.520
<v Speaker 1>I can have as much energy for my show. But

0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I will admit I want to get better at seeing

0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:21.719
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more of the world and not just

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:30.640
<v Speaker 1>be in my own world in my room. So now

0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:33.879
<v Speaker 1>we come to the rapid fire questions. You guys, remember

0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:36.040
<v Speaker 1>I said to hold to the end because we're gonna

0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.480
<v Speaker 1>have some Q and a s okay. Number one first

0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:42.159
<v Speaker 1>memory of being on stage, well, the first one that

0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:47.200
<v Speaker 1>comes to mind is when I did I Want to Say?

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>And it was my first single that was playing on

0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>the radio, and it was like my first performance ever,

0:20:54.840 --> 0:20:58.240
<v Speaker 1>launching my career on television. So I remember that it

0:20:58.320 --> 0:21:00.520
<v Speaker 1>was like this whole thing, whole product and thing. It

0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.000
<v Speaker 1>was awesome, but I was shaking you guys, like you

0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:06.000
<v Speaker 1>have no idea and I always say that first performance,

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:09.520
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it wasn't me, Like I feel like

0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:12.800
<v Speaker 1>something took over my body because it went by so

0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:15.399
<v Speaker 1>fast and I don't remember any movement I make, Like

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.000
<v Speaker 1>even when I go and watch that show now, like

0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:20.439
<v Speaker 1>you go on YouTube and watch it, like, I'm like,

0:21:20.520 --> 0:21:22.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't even remember doing that. It was just I

0:21:22.920 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know something to go over my body. It's the

0:21:24.760 --> 0:21:28.360
<v Speaker 1>craziest thing. Now I pray for like I asked God,

0:21:28.400 --> 0:21:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I want to be completely present on my shows. I

0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:31.840
<v Speaker 1>want to feel that. I want to know exactly what

0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing, and thank goodness, we're much better with that.

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 1>A favorite city to play and why oh my favorite city,

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:43.600
<v Speaker 1>geez Louise. Okay, Well, besides l A, I love Dallas.

0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:47.200
<v Speaker 1>That's one of the places where I just saying, um

0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:49.560
<v Speaker 1>in Dallas, Like it's one of my favorite places. It's

0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:52.880
<v Speaker 1>an intimate restaurant sort of feel like nightclub, and I've

0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:55.320
<v Speaker 1>always really enjoyed it. The stage is very small there,

0:21:56.000 --> 0:21:59.760
<v Speaker 1>but the feeling that I get is crazy, Like last

0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:03.919
<v Speaker 1>Happen Louso is just it's so beautiful, Like that's one

0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:06.119
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite places. I always look forward to go

0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:08.800
<v Speaker 1>into Dallas. Said that one specific place, and they've offered

0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:11.160
<v Speaker 1>me bigger places. They're like, okay, you know, you could

0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:13.840
<v Speaker 1>do one night here and it's X amount of people.

0:22:14.040 --> 0:22:17.199
<v Speaker 1>But I'm like, I don't know. I want to keep

0:22:17.280 --> 0:22:21.880
<v Speaker 1>doing It's just it's fun. I don't know, I feel great.

0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:24.960
<v Speaker 1>I love being there. Okay, how do you choose your

0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:30.679
<v Speaker 1>first and last song, especially with this tour. I just

0:22:30.720 --> 0:22:33.439
<v Speaker 1>felt like it was the most appropriate thing to start

0:22:33.480 --> 0:22:38.240
<v Speaker 1>with the song that still hasn't come out. It's it's

0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:39.879
<v Speaker 1>a part of the album, it's still not a single.

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:41.439
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people haven't heard it. I wanted to

0:22:41.480 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 1>give my audience, the people that go watch me sing

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:48.359
<v Speaker 1>with this tour something special, a gift. So I'm like,

0:22:48.400 --> 0:22:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I need to start with a strong song, a high note,

0:22:52.040 --> 0:22:54.320
<v Speaker 1>and end with a high note. For me, it's like

0:22:54.520 --> 0:22:58.479
<v Speaker 1>I want to leave people wanting more. So I always

0:22:58.600 --> 0:23:01.960
<v Speaker 1>end with complement, which is one of my most popular songs.

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:05.239
<v Speaker 1>It's called and I always end with that. I just

0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 1>wanted to become like a thing like brand that you know,

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:11.840
<v Speaker 1>So it's always start with the high note and end

0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:13.960
<v Speaker 1>with a high note, you know, and everything else in

0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 1>between will work out. Okay. Worst experience with a fan,

0:23:18.320 --> 0:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>any unruly ones. Um, well, okay, talking about this place

0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:26.320
<v Speaker 1>in Dallas, there was this one guy, a boss Bia

0:23:26.400 --> 0:23:28.880
<v Speaker 1>king By I'm not going to say his name, but

0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>he It was like, you kind of have to sit

0:23:30.760 --> 0:23:33.280
<v Speaker 1>there because if if you don't sit, then the people

0:23:33.280 --> 0:23:35.840
<v Speaker 1>behind you can't see you when you're on stage. So

0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:38.399
<v Speaker 1>there was this one fan that kept standing up and

0:23:38.480 --> 0:23:40.679
<v Speaker 1>screaming and stuff, and people were getting upset and the

0:23:40.760 --> 0:23:43.560
<v Speaker 1>security had told him a few times to just sit down.

0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:45.800
<v Speaker 1>He was just excited. He was drunk and having a

0:23:45.800 --> 0:23:47.480
<v Speaker 1>great time, and he's one of my biggest fans and

0:23:47.520 --> 0:23:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I love him so much. I was singing to the

0:23:50.160 --> 0:23:53.320
<v Speaker 1>left side of the stage and from the corner of

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 1>my eye I could see that something was happening on

0:23:55.880 --> 0:23:58.879
<v Speaker 1>the right side of the stage. And next thing you know,

0:23:58.920 --> 0:24:01.560
<v Speaker 1>I see the security guard grab the guy from his

0:24:01.640 --> 0:24:03.639
<v Speaker 1>neck and bring him down to the floor. And I

0:24:03.680 --> 0:24:07.720
<v Speaker 1>just stopped everything, and I'm like, wait a second, you

0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:09.399
<v Speaker 1>are not going to do that. Like, of course, I

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:12.200
<v Speaker 1>respect with the security guards, that's their job. They need

0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:13.879
<v Speaker 1>to let calm people down. But I just felt like

0:24:13.920 --> 0:24:15.960
<v Speaker 1>it was just way too much and I had to

0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:18.400
<v Speaker 1>stop everything. The music and I think they even caught

0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:20.920
<v Speaker 1>this moment on TikTok where I was like, wait, don't

0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:24.000
<v Speaker 1>do that, Like I'm not okay with that. But for

0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>me to have like a bad experience with a fan

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:29.640
<v Speaker 1>like me personally, I haven't. I actually had a bad

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.399
<v Speaker 1>experience with one of my mom's fans. I was selling

0:24:32.400 --> 0:24:35.439
<v Speaker 1>posters at one of her concerts. I would sell the

0:24:35.480 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 1>posters and the CDs and the shirts and stuff. I

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:40.040
<v Speaker 1>had one of the posters in my hands. I was

0:24:40.040 --> 0:24:41.920
<v Speaker 1>about to give it to someone else, and she snatched

0:24:41.960 --> 0:24:44.359
<v Speaker 1>it out of my hand. So I turned around and

0:24:44.400 --> 0:24:49.000
<v Speaker 1>I grabbed it back and my mom's fan bit me

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:51.840
<v Speaker 1>on the arm, like she literally bit me. I had

0:24:51.920 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 1>bite marks, and I was like and I screamed, and

0:24:54.080 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 1>my mom was busy doing something, but she heard her

0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:59.480
<v Speaker 1>child scream me, and she's like, what happened? And I

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:01.680
<v Speaker 1>told her as a she just bait me. Oh my goodness,

0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 1>my mom slapped that lady so bad, like she slapped her.

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:07.960
<v Speaker 1>She said, don't you ever put your hands on my daughter.

0:25:08.600 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I will never forget that day. I felt so bad

0:25:10.800 --> 0:25:12.679
<v Speaker 1>for the girl because I don't think she knew I

0:25:12.680 --> 0:25:14.920
<v Speaker 1>was my mom's daughter. But it's like my mom at

0:25:14.960 --> 0:25:20.320
<v Speaker 1>that moment was not the artist, she was the mother. Dude.

0:25:20.320 --> 0:25:22.080
<v Speaker 1>That lady beat me so hard I thought I was

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:25.159
<v Speaker 1>going to bleed. My mom just heard me scream and

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:27.280
<v Speaker 1>she was like, What's what's wrong with my daughter? So

0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:29.120
<v Speaker 1>for me, I think that was like the worst experience

0:25:29.119 --> 0:25:32.960
<v Speaker 1>with the fan, but not necessarily one of my fans. Oh. Actually,

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 1>one time, now that we're talking about it, a lady

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:37.159
<v Speaker 1>flipped me off. I was in Mexico and she was

0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 1>slipping me off with both her fingers and I was like,

0:25:39.600 --> 0:25:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I flipped her back off too. I said, girl, if

0:25:41.320 --> 0:25:44.280
<v Speaker 1>you don't like it, if you don't know, and I

0:25:44.320 --> 0:25:46.840
<v Speaker 1>had the security guards take her out because I'm like,

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:49.119
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to disrespect me. I'm here working, I'm

0:25:49.160 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 1>doing my thing, and you're they're flipping me off. So

0:25:51.080 --> 0:25:52.719
<v Speaker 1>I flipped her back off and I said you better go.

0:25:52.960 --> 0:25:56.760
<v Speaker 1>So that was one anyways, most embarrassing moment on stage.

0:25:57.080 --> 0:26:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Most embarrassing moment um, well, it's always with wardrobe and

0:26:01.880 --> 0:26:04.520
<v Speaker 1>my butt because I got a big gas so the

0:26:04.520 --> 0:26:08.359
<v Speaker 1>pants were too tight. I was working sas my pants

0:26:08.440 --> 0:26:11.560
<v Speaker 1>ripped right in the crack of my ass. Thank goodness,

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:14.920
<v Speaker 1>I had madias but still I had like media's where

0:26:14.920 --> 0:26:16.600
<v Speaker 1>you could still kind of see my my booty crack.

0:26:17.000 --> 0:26:19.679
<v Speaker 1>That was, like, I think, the most embarrassing moment on stage,

0:26:19.960 --> 0:26:22.679
<v Speaker 1>and I told them, I said sorry, guys Pio, and

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 1>they had to come on stage and put like little

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:27.480
<v Speaker 1>alfielet Is and you know, to cover it for the

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:29.320
<v Speaker 1>time being. But it was I just didn't turn around

0:26:29.400 --> 0:26:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the show. Okay, next, what's the one

0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:35.040
<v Speaker 1>song you always have to sing? The one song I

0:26:35.160 --> 0:26:38.240
<v Speaker 1>always have to sing. I think it's completemente absolutely, that's

0:26:38.280 --> 0:26:40.760
<v Speaker 1>the song that I finished my set list with. That

0:26:40.920 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 1>video has the most views on YouTube, and I have

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:46.639
<v Speaker 1>to sing it because I dedicated to my fans. I'm like,

0:26:46.680 --> 0:26:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm yours one yes, And those are two songs that

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:52.680
<v Speaker 1>if I do a show, I have to do those

0:26:52.680 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 1>two songs with. Whom would you love to share the stage.

0:26:58.400 --> 0:27:01.720
<v Speaker 1>That's a good question. I've shared stages with a lot

0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:03.919
<v Speaker 1>of people that I love that I've wanted to, like

0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:09.600
<v Speaker 1>my sister Jackie, my uncle Lupe, my deal Gus Groups.

0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:12.639
<v Speaker 1>He invited me once. I'm a huge fan of us,

0:27:12.640 --> 0:27:13.920
<v Speaker 1>so he invited me once. I went to his show

0:27:13.920 --> 0:27:16.639
<v Speaker 1>and invited me to sing on stage with him. Dude,

0:27:16.920 --> 0:27:19.920
<v Speaker 1>that's a great question. I think Carol G. I would

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:23.359
<v Speaker 1>love to share stage with Carol g. Alright, dream city

0:27:23.400 --> 0:27:26.840
<v Speaker 1>venue to perform? Oh I I have on my vision

0:27:26.880 --> 0:27:31.720
<v Speaker 1>board the Microsoft Theater. I like to do short term goals.

0:27:31.880 --> 0:27:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Of course. I would love to sell out the Crypto

0:27:34.280 --> 0:27:36.760
<v Speaker 1>here in Los Angeles. That would be like a dream,

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.640
<v Speaker 1>of course, but like my shorter term venue right now

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:43.960
<v Speaker 1>and short term goal would be the Microsoft Theater. Okay,

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:46.879
<v Speaker 1>how would you describe your feelings right after a show.

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:52.399
<v Speaker 1>I am hyped. The adrenaline is like to the top.

0:27:53.320 --> 0:27:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I think after my show, I'm just like the first

0:27:55.160 --> 0:27:56.800
<v Speaker 1>thing I do is I thank God. I'm just like,

0:27:56.840 --> 0:27:59.359
<v Speaker 1>thank you God, I got that done. But yeah, more

0:27:59.400 --> 0:28:02.640
<v Speaker 1>than anything, it's like, oh we did it. Having more

0:28:02.640 --> 0:28:04.680
<v Speaker 1>than anything. It's it's that type of feeling where it's

0:28:04.720 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 1>like I feel relieved, I feel satisfied. Okay, So are

0:28:10.640 --> 0:28:14.719
<v Speaker 1>you superstitious at all? Do you have any rituals you

0:28:14.760 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 1>do before performing? This is a good one. Before my show,

0:28:18.040 --> 0:28:20.399
<v Speaker 1>it's super important for me to pray. I like to

0:28:20.480 --> 0:28:24.439
<v Speaker 1>pray by myself. I have some time to myself. I

0:28:24.560 --> 0:28:27.760
<v Speaker 1>have Balo Santo. I love Balo santo and incense. So

0:28:27.840 --> 0:28:32.399
<v Speaker 1>I like that before every performance with Bobo and I

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:35.159
<v Speaker 1>say I'm protected. I always say this, God, give me

0:28:35.200 --> 0:28:37.800
<v Speaker 1>the mind of Jesus, give me words of excellence so

0:28:37.840 --> 0:28:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I can remember my song so that I could sing great.

0:28:40.960 --> 0:28:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I put hands over my throat and I'm like God

0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:48.040
<v Speaker 1>annoyed my voice. And I pray with my team, and

0:28:48.160 --> 0:28:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I always wear like a certain bracelet that just I

0:28:51.480 --> 0:28:54.400
<v Speaker 1>feel gives me strength. It could be mental whatever, but

0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:56.760
<v Speaker 1>for me, it just helps me and I feel like

0:28:56.800 --> 0:28:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm protected and I could just go out there and

0:28:58.680 --> 0:29:01.920
<v Speaker 1>give my all without having to worry about something quote

0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:06.320
<v Speaker 1>unquote bad happening. You know, for me, it's like it

0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:08.240
<v Speaker 1>has to be done. I have to get on my knees,

0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I have to thank God, I have to pray, and

0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:13.120
<v Speaker 1>then I go out there and do my dying. So

0:29:13.160 --> 0:29:15.320
