The 23-year-old “Issues” songwriter (and rising pop star in her own right!) spoke with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show before hitting the stage to perform on Monday (October 23) in New York City.
During the interview, Julia revealed why she didn’t keep Justin Bieber‘s smash hit “Sorry” – which she co-penned – for herself.
“It just wasn’t my time,” Julia explained.
“I’m a very nervous person and I’ve never really been much of a confident person, and it took a song like ‘Issues’ for me to realize that it was something that I wanted and something that I suppressed because I’m so fearful of it.”
Watch Julia‘s interview, as well as her performance of “Worst In Me,” below!
The 23-year-old singer and the 27-year-old hit-making producer teamed up with the “Issues” singer to collaborate on a duet version of their song “Friends,” which has already peaked at #20 on the Billoboard Hot 100.
Julia actually co-wrote the track with the producer and her songwriting partner in crime, Justin Tranter � so the collaboration makes total sense, they’re indeed “Friends.”
The official “Friends” remix with Julia Michaels is also available on Spotify and download on iTunes now!
