00:00 You're going into this weekend of course as a nominee. How does it feel? What's your mindset?
00:04 I can't, I mean, it's just parked there. Sunday is a long way away but also it's any second.
00:15 Mostly I'm just so excited to be nominated. I'm so excited to be going to the Grammys and being amongst incredible artists.
00:27 So I've got performances tonight, performances tomorrow at Clive Davies' party and a Grammys performance.
00:34 Not me, but I just get to be in the audience and love and appreciate music.
00:38 I mean, what a weekend. And it's going to keep going because you're being nominated at the Billboard Women in Music Awards in March.
00:45 You're receiving the Icon Award. What does that feel like for you?
00:48 Incredible. Yeah, really incredible. I know how much work I've put in over a lifetime.
00:59 And you know, you ride the highs and the lows and everything in between.
01:03 I think Icon is one of those words you're not exactly sure what to do with, but as recognition of my work, I'm really proud of that.
01:16 Are there moments when you feel like an icon?
01:20 Sometimes. I mean, when I saw the hero shot in Padam video, I knew. I was feeling it. I went, "This feels good."
01:29 So sometimes you're like, "Ooh, this could have a shot," but you hope for the best.
01:34 What effect has Padam Padam had on your year?
01:37 It's true. There's pre-Padam and post-Padam. It's like two different parts of my life.
01:47 Who knew? We didn't know it would become a viral sensation and would really connect me with, well, reconnect me with a lot of people, but also a different generation.
01:58 So they kind of put Padam with Can't Get You Out of My Head that live in similar 20 years apart, but kind of live together.
02:05 He's adorable. I love Jelly Roll. I'm just going to be fangirling over so many people tonight.
02:14 So Padam Padam has been a very good friend.
02:20 A good friend to have.
02:22 We're going to be best friends for life.
