She made this statement in a recent interview on the latest episode of the VA 100 New York Podcast.
She said, “I actually fell in love with the song ‘Runaway’ before I fell in love with ‘Calm down.’ I literally was a fan of his. But it (remixing ‘Calm Down’) was all like kind of his idea.
“When I met him, I honestly was so impressed by his demeanour, how humble and how grateful he is for every moment. And, I just couldn’t pick someone else who deserves all this success in the world.
He is so kind. I don’t know, I just wanna like to take care of him (laughs)”.
