00:00You know what? Getting him in pyjamas was a right hassle.
00:02I'm like, yes! What's wrong with pyjamas? Oh, gosh. I'm warming up, so.
00:07You look so beautiful.
00:08You look gorgeous.
00:09I'm so excited for you. You are going it alone tonight.
00:12I know. I want my tea, is it?
00:14She's a girl's girl. She's a girl's girl.
00:17Is it alright now?
00:18Yeah, no, perfect.
00:19Thanks, Angel. Are you excited?
00:20I am very excited. I'm kind of like excited, but nervous, but like, ooh. I sound checked
00:26at like 9am, so I'm really ready now.
00:29Are the nerves different from the band, being up there on your own?
00:33Yeah. I don't know if it's like, one way it's easier, because if I mess up, nobody knows
00:37because it's just me, but then, I don't know, it's like, it's weird, and then you've got
00:41the support of them, so there's like pros and cons to it, for sure.
00:44You're still dancing on stage, which I'm so happy about. I'm so pleased you're doing that.
00:47And Christmas number one, baby. You're taking on Mimi, aren't we?
00:50Oh, do you know what? I love my Christmas song. Just the fact that people are loving
00:54it and enjoying it, I'm really happy.
00:55It's stuck in my head so much.
00:57Yeah, do you like it?
00:58Are you now a director? What's going on?
00:59I know! It was so much fun. I wanted it to be like wholesome, just chilled, me and Axel
01:04at home, and then obviously Alex walking in at the end. It's so cute.
01:08I can't believe you got him involved. My fellow would be like-
01:10I know! Do you know what? Getting him in pyjamas was a right hassle. He was like, I'm like,
01:15you have to. He was like, what, wear pyjamas? I'm like, yes! What's wrong with pyjamas?
01:20He's got a thing against it.
01:21I also think he's the cutest footballer ever, because he just gets involved.
01:24He's so cute.
01:25He loves Delaney and his baby. It's wonderful. Is Axel into singing? Does he want to be?
01:29He loves singing. He loves it, and Do You Know Men's Analytical was like my most listened
01:32to song on my rap, other than myself, of course, because he's just obsessed with singing. He
01:38loves it.
01:39Well, I think the song is amazing.
01:41It has everything you want it to be in regards to Christmas, because it's such a banger,
01:44by the way.
01:44Yeah, I had a tick list, and I went through each thing, like Breakdown Chorus, Melancholy
01:47Mormon, K-Change, Nostalgia, all that stuff. I ticked it all off.
01:51I absolutely love it. Right, debut album. What are we saying? Next year?
01:54Oh, gosh. I keep editing it. Editing it? Is that the word? I keep tweaking it. I keep
02:00writing more. I did a few sessions the other week, and I loved it. I'm like, maybe I should
02:04put these on. Maybe, I don't know. I'm a perfectionist, so I just want to make sure it's perfect before
02:08I release it.
02:09Well, I heard about five tracks a couple of months ago, and you wrote them with Ray, is
02:13that right?
02:14Yeah.
02:14Is that happening more, songwriting with Ray?
02:17Yeah, well, just more sessions in general. I think I loved it the first time round, and
02:22I think now I'm kind of getting the feel of it and the vibes that I like. I'd love to
02:26go in and do some more, rather than just be like, yeah, it's ready. Here you go.
02:28Well, I'm so excited. Name. Are you thinking anything?
02:31I have a name.
02:32Yeah?
02:33Yeah, and I really love it.
02:34Perrie.
02:34But, no, it's not Perrie. It's actually not, but I can't tell you.
02:38Okay, well, I can't wait. I've got a little Christmas question in here in my stocking for
02:42you. Pretend there's loads. There's only one in there.
02:44Okay. Oh my gosh, what could it be?
02:46Look how pretty.
02:47Is it the candy cane?
02:48It is.
02:49Okay. Do you want me to read it?
02:51Yeah.
02:51Okay, if you could host a Christmas dinner with any three fictional characters.
02:57Flynn Rider from Tangled.
03:01Maybe even the horse.
03:04Got a little thing for the horse. Do you know what I mean?
03:07And then maybe, like, maybe Elsa.
03:12Yeah, and then Axel would be buzzing, wouldn't he?
03:14Anyone for yourself, or is it only cartoon characters?
03:18I thought fictional characters was like fake ones. Is that not right?
03:21What do you mean?
03:22I'd maybe have Brian Cox from Succession. That would be interesting.
03:24Oh god, I can't think of any. I went straight to Disney. That's just my brain. I'm a mummy,
03:28for god's sake.
03:29I'd have Woody from Toy Story, I reckon. He'd be awesome stories.
03:32Oh, Woody would be pretty lit as well, yeah.
03:34I love it. So next year, what other plans have you got apart from the daily album?
03:37Just more live shows, more performances. I just want to be on the stage as much as possible.
03:42We're so happy that you're back. You're amazing.
03:44Thank you. Thank you so much.
03:46Do you want an actual one to eat?
03:47Oh, it's okay. I'm good. Honestly, I'm good.
03:50Good luck tonight, my darling.
