Young Miko:
Billboard, what are you doing here? Welcome to the XOXO Tour. We are in Philadelphia, show No. 18. As you can see, I’m in glam and makeup right now. The show will start in approximately 40 minutes to an hour from now. Today marks one month since the first show of the tour in Denver.
Before I get on stage, I actually feel like I do a lot of things, perhaps not so many. I have my vocal warm-up time. I stretch, I put on an inhaler, I have my glam and makeup time. I do a sound check, I have a sound check with fans. And then I get here and have a pre-show exercise where I do more stretching and then I kind of go into game mode and I put on my headphones, listen to a little bit of music. And actually when I open my eyes, it’s already showtime.
Let me show them what I’m wearing today for the Philly show. Yellow uniform — I haven’t used it yet, so I’m going to use it for the first time. And you are going to have the exclusive first look at the yellow uniform.
Hello, good morning — we are here in Boston. I just finished my sound check. Now I’m going to do a sound check with the fans. I am waiting for them to come in. I’m hiding here, behind the curtain. And they don’t see me and I start: “Yes!” And they go: “Wow!” They get really excited as I go out and talk to them for a while.
Keep watching for more!
