Hailee Steinfeld was able to catch up with media friends from the Philippines and some fans to talk about her latest single “I Love You’s” and how she’s coping up during the quarantine, on Wednesday, April 22nd.

Steinfeld is known for performing “Flashlight” with the Barden Bellas in Pitch Perfect 2 (2015) and has starred in various films such as Bumblebee, Edge of Seventeen, and comedy series Dickinson. It was then followed by her debut single, “Love Myself” and a series of singles, such as “Starving” which placed the 12th spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.

When asked how what is filming her music video, she shared, “It was a lot of fun. I love making music videos, I sort of feel like that was when my two worlds kind of collide, and when it comes to making the music video of I Love You’s, we had a version of the video that didn’t’ turn out the way we want it to – so when it came to doing it the second time, I figured I would throw my hat it and make it happen and execute my vision the best as I could and I did it with the help of Sarah McColgan, and we were on the same page since day 1.”

According to her, the song is sort of being in confined space and losing sight of who she was. “It’s realizing that time alone and time for myself is what I needed and that wasn’t such a bad thing. I think the idea of being alone can be daunting or not necessarily desirable for some people and I was in a certain situation where that was the last thing I wanted but I knew it’s what I needed. I think right now a lot of us are in confined spaces, some of us are handling it better than others, while some others are going crazy,” she added.

She also shared that she has a lot of free time to reflect and focus on herself. She has been trying lots of different things, from learning a bunch of music equipment and spending most of her time in her home studio.

During the interview, Steinfeld cited that she wants to collaborate with Ed Sheeran if she were to create a song about encouragement.

She also can’t wait for this to be over and meet all her adoring fans. Special thanks to MCA Music for including Philippine Concerts on the group meeting with Hailee Steinfeld.
