00:00 Nice to see you. I'm good. How are you?
00:02 Always great.
00:03 Always great.
00:04 I try my best.
00:06 You're performing again this year?
00:07 Yes, twice.
00:08 You crushed it last year. Crushed it.
00:10 Yeah, I'm so happy.
00:12 So I'm performing a medley of my new songs that just came out,
00:16 and I'm performing with TXT.
00:18 We're releasing a single tonight, which is very --
00:20 It's amazing. I'm very happy about it.
00:22 And you made history last year with your win, didn't you?
00:24 Yeah, I was the first Brazilian to win an Emmy,
00:27 to be performing and nominated and winning.
00:30 It was crazy.
00:31 The first time of Brazilian funk on awards like that.
00:35 And for me, it was amazing
00:37 because I could bring my culture, my country.
00:39 They were so happy.
00:40 And tonight, let's see what happens.
00:42 Nominated again. I don't know.
00:44 Can I just say, I am standing so close to you.
00:46 You are flawless.
00:48 Thank you.
00:49 Flawless. Are you for real?
00:50 Thank you. Thank you.
00:52 Guilty pleasure questions.
00:53 Is there anything that you always do
00:54 before you go out on that stage?
00:56 Right before, I do a little breathing exercise.
01:02 And that's it.
01:03 Nothing too much, though.
01:05 I'm very, like, easy. I try to relax.
01:08 Last year, I was not so relaxed.
01:09 But this year, I'm, like, so relaxed.
01:11 I feel it. I can feel it.
01:13 'Cause I think last year was my first time,
01:14 so I was more nervous.
01:16 I feel like the vibe of the VMAs is so different, too.
01:18 Yeah, I mean, I'm really happy,
01:20 and I think my fans are, like, going crazy.
01:23 TXT fans are going crazy. It's gonna be great.
01:25 This is the year for women in music.
01:27 Let me just ask you, right now, in this moment,
01:29 what is it like to be a woman in music?
01:31 I mean, it's still hard as [bleep]
01:32 but it's good. It's very good. I love it.
01:35 I love that we are getting more room,
01:37 more space to perform, to show our art, you know?
01:41 And we are more, like, united.
01:42 Also, who here tonight would you love
01:44 to collab with in the future?
01:45 I think, well, Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion,
01:51 they are doing this song that I loved,
01:53 and it has a little bit of Brazilian funk beat reminder,
01:57 so I would love to be together with them
01:59 'cause they are always bomb.
02:02 And I gotta let you go. Just let me know,
02:03 how did you put this outfit together?
02:05 Very tight. I'm not breathing, but who needs to breathe?
02:08 Who needs to breathe? I don't need to breathe.
02:10 I mean, this is Capparelli.
02:12 I think whenever we were trying all the outfits
02:15 and I put this on, I was like, "Damn, girl!
02:19 You look good as fuck! Loved it!"
02:22 So I came in hot.
02:24 We'll just end with, "I love you."
02:26 Thank you!
02:27 I can't wait to see the performance.
02:28 Bye, thank you.
02:29 (upbeat music)
02:32 you
