So he lived with my parents for, I think it was like two or three weeks.

And he came out, it was just me and James.

And we produced the record.

So my relationship with James was very collaborative.

It was never like, this is what I think you should do or else.

You know, I had just been in a girl group where you didn't get to write the songs.

You didn't get to have any say.

I had been through that.

And that's not the experience I wanted when writing my music.

Yeah, it was interesting.

So we had picked the songs for the EP and I didn't put Girls Like Girls on the EP.

I didn't want to because I wasn't ready to come out.

I was like, once I release this, people know I'm gay and then I can't turn back.

It's over.

It's over for me.

But I was like, I think I should throw it on.

It's the best song.

Why wouldn't I put it on?

And so it was kind of like a last-minute addition to it.

I remember playing it for James, and I think he knew the weight of what this moment was for me.
