He and I have a lot of history. I’ve liked him since 2011 or 2012. Just something about his voice, I’ve always loved it. I love his personality. He feels very familiar to me because of One direction. I love him because of that, because of who he is now. Every song he’s ever produced, I just love.

They were my inspiration. I had to get a matching jumpsuit. However, Free People dropped the suit. I waited too long so I can’t match it. But I tried to fit the vibes of the 60s/70s.
