You’re doing it all.
I’m trying. I’m trying. How do you feel being here at Billboard Women in Music?
I feel great. You know, it’s exciting. I feel like I haven’t been to that many events for music, like, really, this was a big deal.
Oh my gosh. It is. It’s a huge deal.
I got to see amazing people perform that I like love. And I get to present aespa, which is incredible.
Right? It’s such a women empowerment night.
It is.
Which we’re big fans of.
Not just night, every day.
I don’t need this night-
We don’t, but it’s nice to point out.
Exactly, sometimes we got to build our own table. Can you share with us your real astrological sign and how much you know about astrology and birth charts?
Okay, so I’m a Capricorn, but my parents didn’t write down what day- time I was born. And I’ve tried to get the birth certificate, you know, I’ve been to many astrologers to have them try and guess, but I don’t actually know the exact time, which I just think is a disgrace,
Right? It’s a bad mark.
They failed me.
Thanks a lot, Mom and Dad.
