Hi, I'm Tara Macri, and this is my most requested
2
00:00:03.419 --> 00:00:07.080
live Ask Anything chat. My new song is called Grace.
3
00:00:07.379 --> 00:00:10.359
Thank you so much to Romeo and iHeartRadio for having
4
00:00:10.380 --> 00:00:16.859
me tonight. Okay, first question is Anna from Washington, D.C. asks,
5
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:20.120
who were your favorite artists growing up and what genre
6
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:23.100
of music do you listen to the most? Good question.
7
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:26.780
Growing up, I listened to a lot of music that
8
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:29.440
was playing around the house. My dad would play the Beatles,
9
00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:34.840
Billy Joel, just, I don't know, so many, so many
10
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:41.009
amazing artists. And myself, I listened to Coldplay, a lot
11
00:00:41.030 --> 00:00:44.189
of pop music. So for the genre of music, a
12
00:00:44.229 --> 00:00:46.590
lot of pop music and also a lot of like
13
00:00:46.689 --> 00:00:52.020
folk and blues. Okay. Cordelia from Dalton, Georgia. Who would
14
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:54.520
you like to collab with? Ooh, this is so good. Well,
15
00:00:54.579 --> 00:00:59.329
right now, um, we're working on a song and I
16
00:00:59.469 --> 00:01:03.289
feel like I hear Post Malone singing on it. I just,
17
00:01:04.250 --> 00:01:06.670
I feel like he would crush it and that would
18
00:01:06.689 --> 00:01:11.620
be amazing. So, um, I'm sending that out to Post
19
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:19.099
Malone if you hear this. Alexander from Chicago asks, how
20
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:24.189
did Grace come together? So Grace was a song that
21
00:01:24.450 --> 00:01:28.810
I was writing just privately on my own at night.
22
00:01:29.510 --> 00:01:33.819
I was grieving going through the loss of losing someone
23
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.739
and I at night would just go to the piano and, um,
24
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:41.879
just kind of sing about it, write about it, work
25
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.959
through it. And the question that I kept coming back
26
00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:48.980
to was just asking, like, wherever that person was, I
27
00:01:49.019 --> 00:01:51.319
just wondered, are they okay? Can they send me a sign?
28
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:54.519
And that's where Grace started. And then I was in
29
00:01:54.540 --> 00:01:58.579
the studio working with my producer, Jordan Winfield, aka Alias One.
30
00:01:59.379 --> 00:02:01.299
And one day he said to me, hey, do you
31
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:04.500
have anything else that you're working on? And I said, yeah, actually,
32
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.840
I have. I don't think I'm going to release it,
33
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.050
but this is just a song I'm I'm working on
34
00:02:10.090 --> 00:02:12.229
right now. It was just a piano vocal, and I
35
00:02:12.310 --> 00:02:17.289
sent it to him. And then within a day, he
36
00:02:17.349 --> 00:02:21.039
sent me a note back and said, hey, can I
37
00:02:21.069 --> 00:02:23.159
put a track to this? And I was like, sure,
38
00:02:23.180 --> 00:02:26.139
that'd be awesome. And then he sent it back to
39
00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:29.960
me really quickly, and I had goosebumps when I heard
40
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:33.750
what he sent. It was just... He's awesome. What he
41
00:02:33.810 --> 00:02:38.490
heard was just completely different than I would have ever imagined.
42
00:02:38.969 --> 00:02:41.680
And it was really cool. And that's kind of how
43
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:47.500
Grace started. And it just grew from there. So Destiny
44
00:02:47.539 --> 00:02:53.699
from Springfield, Ohio asks, will you be doing any live shows? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
45
00:02:54.099 --> 00:02:56.680
We have some shows coming up. So stay tuned. We'll
46
00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:00.979
be announcing them soon. I can't wait to perform Grace
47
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:05.520
live and play with my band. Shout out to Zach, RJ,
48
00:03:05.659 --> 00:03:08.259
and AJ. I miss those guys. We have so much
49
00:03:08.300 --> 00:03:10.629
fun playing. So yes, we will have some shows coming up.
50
00:03:13.889 --> 00:03:17.050
Brittany from Memphis, Tennessee asks, how has your summer been
51
00:03:17.289 --> 00:03:20.610
and where do you spend most of your time? Thank you, Brittany.
52
00:03:20.729 --> 00:03:24.849
Summer has been great. I spend most of my time
53
00:03:25.069 --> 00:03:28.330
in Los Angeles, but recently I've been in New York
54
00:03:28.389 --> 00:03:31.750
quite a bit. We shot the music video there and
55
00:03:31.909 --> 00:03:35.800
also Grace was playing in Times Square. So I got
56
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:37.819
to go and see it in Times Square. I was
57
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:39.699
there for a couple of weeks, which was so fun.
58
00:03:40.379 --> 00:03:43.580
And then I also pop into Canada to see my family. So, yeah.
59
00:03:46.539 --> 00:03:49.259
Shelby from Jacksonville, Florida asks, do you have a nice
60
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:53.090
set of wheels? Yeah, I have my dad's old car.
61
00:03:53.930 --> 00:04:01.310
So I drive that around. And also I Uber, take Waymo. Yeah.
62
00:04:03.389 --> 00:04:06.060
Carmen from Dallas, Texas asks, if your music could be
63
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:09.240
part of any movie or show soundtrack, which movie or
64
00:04:09.300 --> 00:04:14.349
show would it be? Ah. Recently, I just saw Off Campus.
65
00:04:14.389 --> 00:04:17.829
So I feel like it would do really well in
66
00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:22.680
that show. And also maybe a sci-fi movie. It has
67
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.759
a cinematic vibe to it. So I think it would
68
00:04:24.779 --> 00:04:29.870
be nice there too. Lana from Burbank, California asks, will
69
00:04:29.889 --> 00:04:33.370
you ever record a Christmas song? Yes, but I have
70
00:04:33.410 --> 00:04:35.829
a Christmas song out right now. I mean, not right now,
71
00:04:35.930 --> 00:04:38.540
but it comes out every year. It's called Christmas for Two.
72
00:04:40.019 --> 00:04:42.620
But yeah, we are actually in the works of writing
73
00:04:42.660 --> 00:04:46.000
a brand new Christmas song. So yes, yes, Lana, very soon.
74
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:52.790
Sasha from Chattanooga, Tennessee asks, how is everyone in your
75
00:04:52.810 --> 00:04:55.970
family doing and are any of them involved with your career?
76
00:04:56.529 --> 00:05:01.629
They are all great. Thank you, Sasha. They're not involved,
77
00:05:01.750 --> 00:05:05.389
but they're very supportive. I was just recently visiting my
78
00:05:05.430 --> 00:05:09.129
parents and I came downstairs and I heard Grace playing
79
00:05:09.170 --> 00:05:12.529
in every room of the house. And I found out
80
00:05:12.610 --> 00:05:15.009
my dad was walking around and just putting it on
81
00:05:15.310 --> 00:05:18.670
different parts of the house. He'd be putting it on
82
00:05:18.730 --> 00:05:22.170
different on the iPad, on his phone, coming through the speakers.
83
00:05:22.290 --> 00:05:30.980
So that was very cute. Kim from Cleveland, Ohio asks,
84
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:35.439
what's your favorite t-shirt to wear? I don't have a
85
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:39.050
favorite t-shirt, but I do like a good graphic tee
86
00:05:39.810 --> 00:05:43.410
and also my friend has a store. It's called White Cherry.
87
00:05:43.490 --> 00:05:46.569
I'm actually wearing her necklace and her t-shirt from her
88
00:05:46.629 --> 00:05:52.500
store and I love everything she has there. Lydia from Hartford,
89
00:05:52.540 --> 00:05:55.300
Connecticut asks, what do you do to warm up your voice?
90
00:05:56.709 --> 00:06:00.819
I do a lot of lip trills, and I also
91
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:05.279
have a 15-minute warm-up that I do from my voice teacher,
92
00:06:05.579 --> 00:06:10.129
Eric Vitro and Michael Orland, and I try to do
93
00:06:10.149 --> 00:06:14.329
that every day. Also, I have this new voice mister.
94
00:06:15.329 --> 00:06:18.389
Because I fly so much, it really helps to kind
95
00:06:18.540 --> 00:06:23.569
of keep your voice warm. So, yeah. Cassidy from Houston,
96
00:06:23.610 --> 00:06:25.889
Texas asks, how old were you when you wrote a
97
00:06:25.930 --> 00:06:29.449
song for the first time? Oh my goodness. I don't
98
00:06:29.750 --> 00:06:33.569
remember how old I was, but I do remember it
99
00:06:33.610 --> 00:06:38.470
was under 10 and I would write them for my
100
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:42.250
dog or my cat. I'd write them a song and
101
00:06:42.350 --> 00:06:44.930
I used to write down the title of the song,
102
00:06:45.029 --> 00:06:47.060
the age I wrote it and why I wrote it.
103
00:06:47.149 --> 00:06:49.149
And I had this little book that I would put
104
00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:55.639
them all in. So yeah. Ainsley from Tulsa, Oklahoma asks,
105
00:06:55.899 --> 00:06:58.259
if you were in a lip sync battle, what song
106
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:03.259
would you choose? Oh, that's a good question. Um, I
107
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:07.379
think it might be, I had to do the song
108
00:07:07.779 --> 00:07:12.319
randomly for my drummer. One time he asked me, he's like, Hey,
109
00:07:12.339 --> 00:07:13.779
will you come to the Viper room and jump up
110
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:17.639
and no rehearsal, just sing Aerosmith's walk this way, which
111
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.490
I had never done. So I feel like that would
112
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:26.699
be a good lip sync battle song. to do. Okay.
113
00:07:27.370 --> 00:07:30.819
Cheryl from Manchester, Vermont asks, what's your dream house, dream
114
00:07:30.870 --> 00:07:37.430
vacation and dream car? Ooh, um, it's a good question.
115
00:07:37.569 --> 00:07:41.610
I think dream vacation would be Amalfi coast. And it's
116
00:07:41.649 --> 00:07:44.509
so weird cause I'm wearing an Amalfi coast t-shirt right now,
117
00:07:44.569 --> 00:07:48.370
but I love it there so much. I think I
118
00:07:48.389 --> 00:07:50.930
would trade in like the dream house and dream car
119
00:07:50.990 --> 00:07:58.949
just to have that forever dream vacation there. Dahlia from Whitaker,
120
00:07:58.970 --> 00:08:02.310
California asks, what was the last vacation you went on?
121
00:08:04.649 --> 00:08:09.790
That would be Turks and Caicos. And we went looking
122
00:08:09.810 --> 00:08:12.670
to see if Drake was there, but he wasn't. Apparently
123
00:08:12.689 --> 00:08:14.610
the whole island knows when he's there because his plane
124
00:08:14.889 --> 00:08:16.970
is there. But we did go to visit his tiki
125
00:08:16.990 --> 00:08:24.389
bar and that was cool. So yeah. Monica from Miami Beach,
126
00:08:24.430 --> 00:08:27.120
Florida asks, in what order would you rank the following
127
00:08:27.209 --> 00:08:32.299
cereals at the Tara breakfast table? Cheerios, Captain Crunch, Rice Krispies,
128
00:08:32.460 --> 00:08:37.120
Frosted Mini Wheats, and Shreddies. Okay, don't hate me, but
129
00:08:37.299 --> 00:08:40.500
I can't rate any of them because I don't eat
130
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:44.500
any of them. I think I've been in LA too long.
131
00:08:44.899 --> 00:08:50.409
I do a combination of chia seeds and blueberries in
132
00:08:50.450 --> 00:08:59.320
the morning. So, um, yeah, sorry about that. Okay. Sonia
133
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:02.409
from Raleigh, North Carolina asks, is there anyone you went
134
00:09:02.450 --> 00:09:04.070
to high school with you want to give a shout
135
00:09:04.110 --> 00:09:09.190
out to and would they be totally surprised? Um, yeah, actually,
136
00:09:09.230 --> 00:09:10.870
I don't know if they'd be surprised cause we still
137
00:09:10.889 --> 00:09:13.730
keep in touch, but I have a friend Trish, shout
138
00:09:13.750 --> 00:09:17.990
out to Trish, um, call her T she calls me T. Um,
139
00:09:19.289 --> 00:09:22.470
and Yeah, I've seen her recently. She's in New York
140
00:09:22.529 --> 00:09:25.350
and she's killing it. She's on Broadway. So shout out
141
00:09:25.370 --> 00:09:32.029
to Trish. McKenna from Durango, Colorado asks, do you eat
142
00:09:32.090 --> 00:09:35.909
hot dogs? And if so, what do you put on them? Well,
143
00:09:35.950 --> 00:09:38.679
I'm a vegetarian, so I don't eat hot dogs, but
144
00:09:38.899 --> 00:09:42.279
I do eat veggie dogs and mustard all the way.
145
00:09:42.500 --> 00:09:48.440
Just mustard. That's it. Laura from Colorado Springs, Colorado asks,
146
00:09:48.779 --> 00:09:51.090
what would be your DJ or rapper name if you
147
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.730
could pick one? Okay, I kind of have one that
148
00:09:54.750 --> 00:09:58.669
a producer gave me one time. He calls me TJ Mac,
149
00:09:58.970 --> 00:10:00.970
and when I come in the studio, he'd be like, Hey,
150
00:10:01.049 --> 00:10:03.970
TJ Mac coming at you like a hot attack. Um,
151
00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:09.840
so I guess it's TJ Mac. I don't know. Vanna
152
00:10:09.860 --> 00:10:13.620
from San Antonio, Texas asks, what emoji would you use
153
00:10:13.659 --> 00:10:21.710
to describe yourself? Um, probably the happy emoji, which is
154
00:10:21.750 --> 00:10:28.429
probably annoying, but yeah. Um, that one. Yeah. Carm from Nashville,
155
00:10:28.450 --> 00:10:30.789
Tennessee asked when you do get some time off, do
156
00:10:30.809 --> 00:10:33.629
you drive yourself around or do you bum rides with friends?
157
00:10:34.870 --> 00:10:37.889
Oh man, I love driving and I love kind of
158
00:10:37.909 --> 00:10:40.919
just being on my own in the car and, and
159
00:10:41.460 --> 00:10:46.580
just listening to music and yeah. So that's kind of
160
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.860
what I do when there's some time off. Katie from Covington,
161
00:10:50.019 --> 00:10:54.000
Kentucky asks, have you ever gotten those celebrity gift bags
162
00:10:54.139 --> 00:10:57.330
and what do they usually have in them? Yes. Yes.
163
00:10:57.629 --> 00:11:01.830
Usually there's some kind of alcohol and some kind of
164
00:11:02.129 --> 00:11:08.379
face mask or face cream or something like that. So yeah. Okay.
165
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:11.980
Andrea from Cherry Hill, New Jersey asks, if your tour
166
00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:14.080
bus pulled up to a 7-Eleven, what would be the
167
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.620
first five things you would buy? Okay, the first thing
168
00:11:17.629 --> 00:11:22.179
would be salt and vinegar chips, chocolate bar of some sort,
169
00:11:22.259 --> 00:11:23.820
and then I'd have to do some kind of healthy
170
00:11:23.860 --> 00:11:26.539
thing like nuts or something just to balance out the
171
00:11:26.580 --> 00:11:33.679
fact that I'm buying chips and chocolate bars. Nick from Columbus,
172
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:36.860
Ohio asks, what was the first concert you went to?
173
00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:41.340
That's a good question. I don't know if I can
174
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:45.879
remember the first concert, but There's some memorable concerts that
175
00:11:45.899 --> 00:11:49.500
I've been to, ones that I keep going to. Ray LaMontagne,
176
00:11:49.740 --> 00:11:54.639
I've seen him so many times. He's amazing. Ames Lee,
177
00:11:55.309 --> 00:11:59.909
those are some great concerts that I've been to. Deb
178
00:11:59.929 --> 00:12:03.789
from Green, Kentucky asks, what's the coolest thing you own?
179
00:12:03.809 --> 00:12:11.090
That's a good question. I think for me right now,
180
00:12:11.110 --> 00:12:14.850
having an aura ring is pretty cool. it kind of
181
00:12:14.870 --> 00:12:18.409
keeps me on track and, um, it's so fun to
182
00:12:18.450 --> 00:12:20.360
see like how many steps you did, how is your
183
00:12:20.379 --> 00:12:24.440
sleep score? So yeah, I think that's the coolest thing
184
00:12:24.460 --> 00:12:28.679
I own right now. Thank you again so much for
185
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.519
watching my ask anything chat with Romeo and most requested live.
186
00:12:32.820 --> 00:12:34.350
Check out my new song grace.
1
00:00:00.350 --> 00:00:03.359
Hi, I'm Tara Macri, and this is my most requested
2
00:00:03.419 --> 00:00:07.080
live Ask Anything chat. My new song is called Grace.
3
00:00:07.379 --> 00:00:10.359
Thank you so much to Romeo and iHeartRadio for having
4
00:00:10.380 --> 00:00:16.859
me tonight. Okay, first question is Anna from Washington, D.C. asks,
5
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:20.120
who were your favorite artists growing up and what genre
6
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:23.100
of music do you listen to the most? Good question.
7
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:26.780
Growing up, I listened to a lot of music that
8
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:29.440
was playing around the house. My dad would play the Beatles,
9
00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:34.840
Billy Joel, just, I don't know, so many, so many
10
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:41.009
amazing artists. And myself, I listened to Coldplay, a lot
11
00:00:41.030 --> 00:00:44.189
of pop music. So for the genre of music, a
12
00:00:44.229 --> 00:00:46.590
lot of pop music and also a lot of like
13
00:00:46.689 --> 00:00:52.020
folk and blues. Okay. Cordelia from Dalton, Georgia. Who would
14
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:54.520
you like to collab with? Ooh, this is so good. Well,
15
00:00:54.579 --> 00:00:59.329
right now, um, we're working on a song and I
16
00:00:59.469 --> 00:01:03.289
feel like I hear Post Malone singing on it. I just,
17
00:01:04.250 --> 00:01:06.670
I feel like he would crush it and that would
18
00:01:06.689 --> 00:01:11.620
be amazing. So, um, I'm sending that out to Post
19
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:19.099
Malone if you hear this. Alexander from Chicago asks, how
20
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:24.189
did Grace come together? So Grace was a song that
21
00:01:24.450 --> 00:01:28.810
I was writing just privately on my own at night.
22
00:01:29.510 --> 00:01:33.819
I was grieving going through the loss of losing someone
23
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.739
and I at night would just go to the piano and, um,
24
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:41.879
just kind of sing about it, write about it, work
25
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.959
through it. And the question that I kept coming back
26
00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:48.980
to was just asking, like, wherever that person was, I
27
00:01:49.019 --> 00:01:51.319
just wondered, are they okay? Can they send me a sign?
28
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:54.519
And that's where Grace started. And then I was in
29
00:01:54.540 --> 00:01:58.579
the studio working with my producer, Jordan Winfield, aka Alias One.
30
00:01:59.379 --> 00:02:01.299
And one day he said to me, hey, do you
31
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:04.500
have anything else that you're working on? And I said, yeah, actually,
32
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.840
I have. I don't think I'm going to release it,
33
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.050
but this is just a song I'm I'm working on
34
00:02:10.090 --> 00:02:12.229
right now. It was just a piano vocal, and I
35
00:02:12.310 --> 00:02:17.289
sent it to him. And then within a day, he
36
00:02:17.349 --> 00:02:21.039
sent me a note back and said, hey, can I
37
00:02:21.069 --> 00:02:23.159
put a track to this? And I was like, sure,
38
00:02:23.180 --> 00:02:26.139
that'd be awesome. And then he sent it back to
39
00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:29.960
me really quickly, and I had goosebumps when I heard
40
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:33.750
what he sent. It was just... He's awesome. What he
41
00:02:33.810 --> 00:02:38.490
heard was just completely different than I would have ever imagined.
42
00:02:38.969 --> 00:02:41.680
And it was really cool. And that's kind of how
43
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:47.500
Grace started. And it just grew from there. So Destiny
44
00:02:47.539 --> 00:02:53.699
from Springfield, Ohio asks, will you be doing any live shows? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
45
00:02:54.099 --> 00:02:56.680
We have some shows coming up. So stay tuned. We'll
46
00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:00.979
be announcing them soon. I can't wait to perform Grace
47
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:05.520
live and play with my band. Shout out to Zach, RJ,
48
00:03:05.659 --> 00:03:08.259
and AJ. I miss those guys. We have so much
49
00:03:08.300 --> 00:03:10.629
fun playing. So yes, we will have some shows coming up.
50
00:03:13.889 --> 00:03:17.050
Brittany from Memphis, Tennessee asks, how has your summer been
51
00:03:17.289 --> 00:03:20.610
and where do you spend most of your time? Thank you, Brittany.
52
00:03:20.729 --> 00:03:24.849
Summer has been great. I spend most of my time
53
00:03:25.069 --> 00:03:28.330
in Los Angeles, but recently I've been in New York
54
00:03:28.389 --> 00:03:31.750
quite a bit. We shot the music video there and
55
00:03:31.909 --> 00:03:35.800
also Grace was playing in Times Square. So I got
56
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:37.819
to go and see it in Times Square. I was
57
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:39.699
there for a couple of weeks, which was so fun.
58
00:03:40.379 --> 00:03:43.580
And then I also pop into Canada to see my family. So, yeah.
59
00:03:46.539 --> 00:03:49.259
Shelby from Jacksonville, Florida asks, do you have a nice
60
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:53.090
set of wheels? Yeah, I have my dad's old car.
61
00:03:53.930 --> 00:04:01.310
So I drive that around. And also I Uber, take Waymo. Yeah.
62
00:04:03.389 --> 00:04:06.060
Carmen from Dallas, Texas asks, if your music could be
63
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:09.240
part of any movie or show soundtrack, which movie or
64
00:04:09.300 --> 00:04:14.349
show would it be? Ah. Recently, I just saw Off Campus.
65
00:04:14.389 --> 00:04:17.829
So I feel like it would do really well in
66
00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:22.680
that show. And also maybe a sci-fi movie. It has
67
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.759
a cinematic vibe to it. So I think it would
68
00:04:24.779 --> 00:04:29.870
be nice there too. Lana from Burbank, California asks, will
69
00:04:29.889 --> 00:04:33.370
you ever record a Christmas song? Yes, but I have
70
00:04:33.410 --> 00:04:35.829
a Christmas song out right now. I mean, not right now,
71
00:04:35.930 --> 00:04:38.540
but it comes out every year. It's called Christmas for Two.
72
00:04:40.019 --> 00:04:42.620
But yeah, we are actually in the works of writing
73
00:04:42.660 --> 00:04:46.000
a brand new Christmas song. So yes, yes, Lana, very soon.
74
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:52.790
Sasha from Chattanooga, Tennessee asks, how is everyone in your
75
00:04:52.810 --> 00:04:55.970
family doing and are any of them involved with your career?
76
00:04:56.529 --> 00:05:01.629
They are all great. Thank you, Sasha. They're not involved,
77
00:05:01.750 --> 00:05:05.389
but they're very supportive. I was just recently visiting my
78
00:05:05.430 --> 00:05:09.129
parents and I came downstairs and I heard Grace playing
79
00:05:09.170 --> 00:05:12.529
in every room of the house. And I found out
80
00:05:12.610 --> 00:05:15.009
my dad was walking around and just putting it on
81
00:05:15.310 --> 00:05:18.670
different parts of the house. He'd be putting it on
82
00:05:18.730 --> 00:05:22.170
different on the iPad, on his phone, coming through the speakers.
83
00:05:22.290 --> 00:05:30.980
So that was very cute. Kim from Cleveland, Ohio asks,
84
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:35.439
what's your favorite t-shirt to wear? I don't have a
85
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:39.050
favorite t-shirt, but I do like a good graphic tee
86
00:05:39.810 --> 00:05:43.410
and also my friend has a store. It's called White Cherry.
87
00:05:43.490 --> 00:05:46.569
I'm actually wearing her necklace and her t-shirt from her
88
00:05:46.629 --> 00:05:52.500
store and I love everything she has there. Lydia from Hartford,
89
00:05:52.540 --> 00:05:55.300
Connecticut asks, what do you do to warm up your voice?
90
00:05:56.709 --> 00:06:00.819
I do a lot of lip trills, and I also
91
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:05.279
have a 15-minute warm-up that I do from my voice teacher,
92
00:06:05.579 --> 00:06:10.129
Eric Vitro and Michael Orland, and I try to do
93
00:06:10.149 --> 00:06:14.329
that every day. Also, I have this new voice mister.
94
00:06:15.329 --> 00:06:18.389
Because I fly so much, it really helps to kind
95
00:06:18.540 --> 00:06:23.569
of keep your voice warm. So, yeah. Cassidy from Houston,
96
00:06:23.610 --> 00:06:25.889
Texas asks, how old were you when you wrote a
97
00:06:25.930 --> 00:06:29.449
song for the first time? Oh my goodness. I don't
98
00:06:29.750 --> 00:06:33.569
remember how old I was, but I do remember it
99
00:06:33.610 --> 00:06:38.470
was under 10 and I would write them for my
100
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:42.250
dog or my cat. I'd write them a song and
101
00:06:42.350 --> 00:06:44.930
I used to write down the title of the song,
102
00:06:45.029 --> 00:06:47.060
the age I wrote it and why I wrote it.
103
00:06:47.149 --> 00:06:49.149
And I had this little book that I would put
104
00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:55.639
them all in. So yeah. Ainsley from Tulsa, Oklahoma asks,
105
00:06:55.899 --> 00:06:58.259
if you were in a lip sync battle, what song
106
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:03.259
would you choose? Oh, that's a good question. Um, I
107
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:07.379
think it might be, I had to do the song
108
00:07:07.779 --> 00:07:12.319
randomly for my drummer. One time he asked me, he's like, Hey,
109
00:07:12.339 --> 00:07:13.779
will you come to the Viper room and jump up
110
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:17.639
and no rehearsal, just sing Aerosmith's walk this way, which
111
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.490
I had never done. So I feel like that would
112
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:26.699
be a good lip sync battle song. to do. Okay.
113
00:07:27.370 --> 00:07:30.819
Cheryl from Manchester, Vermont asks, what's your dream house, dream
114
00:07:30.870 --> 00:07:37.430
vacation and dream car? Ooh, um, it's a good question.
115
00:07:37.569 --> 00:07:41.610
I think dream vacation would be Amalfi coast. And it's
116
00:07:41.649 --> 00:07:44.509
so weird cause I'm wearing an Amalfi coast t-shirt right now,
117
00:07:44.569 --> 00:07:48.370
but I love it there so much. I think I
118
00:07:48.389 --> 00:07:50.930
would trade in like the dream house and dream car
119
00:07:50.990 --> 00:07:58.949
just to have that forever dream vacation there. Dahlia from Whitaker,
120
00:07:58.970 --> 00:08:02.310
California asks, what was the last vacation you went on?
121
00:08:04.649 --> 00:08:09.790
That would be Turks and Caicos. And we went looking
122
00:08:09.810 --> 00:08:12.670
to see if Drake was there, but he wasn't. Apparently
123
00:08:12.689 --> 00:08:14.610
the whole island knows when he's there because his plane
124
00:08:14.889 --> 00:08:16.970
is there. But we did go to visit his tiki
125
00:08:16.990 --> 00:08:24.389
bar and that was cool. So yeah. Monica from Miami Beach,
126
00:08:24.430 --> 00:08:27.120
Florida asks, in what order would you rank the following
127
00:08:27.209 --> 00:08:32.299
cereals at the Tara breakfast table? Cheerios, Captain Crunch, Rice Krispies,
128
00:08:32.460 --> 00:08:37.120
Frosted Mini Wheats, and Shreddies. Okay, don't hate me, but
129
00:08:37.299 --> 00:08:40.500
I can't rate any of them because I don't eat
130
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:44.500
any of them. I think I've been in LA too long.
131
00:08:44.899 --> 00:08:50.409
I do a combination of chia seeds and blueberries in
132
00:08:50.450 --> 00:08:59.320
the morning. So, um, yeah, sorry about that. Okay. Sonia
133
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:02.409
from Raleigh, North Carolina asks, is there anyone you went
134
00:09:02.450 --> 00:09:04.070
to high school with you want to give a shout
135
00:09:04.110 --> 00:09:09.190
out to and would they be totally surprised? Um, yeah, actually,
136
00:09:09.230 --> 00:09:10.870
I don't know if they'd be surprised cause we still
137
00:09:10.889 --> 00:09:13.730
keep in touch, but I have a friend Trish, shout
138
00:09:13.750 --> 00:09:17.990
out to Trish, um, call her T she calls me T. Um,
139
00:09:19.289 --> 00:09:22.470
and Yeah, I've seen her recently. She's in New York
140
00:09:22.529 --> 00:09:25.350
and she's killing it. She's on Broadway. So shout out
141
00:09:25.370 --> 00:09:32.029
to Trish. McKenna from Durango, Colorado asks, do you eat
142
00:09:32.090 --> 00:09:35.909
hot dogs? And if so, what do you put on them? Well,
143
00:09:35.950 --> 00:09:38.679
I'm a vegetarian, so I don't eat hot dogs, but
144
00:09:38.899 --> 00:09:42.279

a producer gave me one time. He calls me TJ Mac,
149
00:09:58.970 --> 00:10:00.970
and when I come in the studio, he'd be like, Hey,
150
00:10:01.049 --> 00:10:03.970
TJ Mac coming at you like a hot attack. Um,
151
00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:09.840

first five things you would buy? Okay, the first thing
168

would be salt and vinegar chips, chocolate bar of some sort,
