Tetris Kelly:<\/strong><\/p>\n I don\u2019t think anybody at Coachella looks as good as you.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\tThank you!<\/p>\n I love the style. Man, how you feeling?<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\tThis is such an honor. It feels amazing. Standing on a stage I\u2019ve always dreamed of, it still doesn\u2019t feel real.<\/p>\n Well, you\u2019re talking about this moment right now, man, you were the first Korean K-pop soloist ever to play Coachella. That\u2019s a big honor. Like, how did it feel on stage?<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\tVery honored and grateful. I\u2019m so happy I can\u2019t sleep today. Dreams come true.\u00a0<\/p>\n And then, of course, you just dropped new music as well. So I mean, it\u2019s taken a while in your career to finally do your first full English single. So how was it to perform that song tonight?<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\tWorking with new producers, I tried to find a balance between my signature sound and something completely new. Taking on that challenge meant a lot to me.<\/p>\n Well, you killed it, man, very good. And of course, you being honored at the Grammy Museum. So I mean so many honors for you. Congratulations. How excited are you about the Grammy museum exhibit, and what can fans expect?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\tWhen I performed at the Grammy Museum, so many fans came out, and it just didn\u2019t fel real to be standing on such a legendary stage I\u2019ve always known. It was such an incredible experience.
