Bacon, bacon's perfectly rated.

I feel like bacon has the reputation

that it does because it's just so amazing.

Put it in anything, makes it so much better.

[energetic percussion music]

[cymbal crashes]

Heartbreak actually, I'm actually gonna have

to go with underrated.

I feel like if I never endured any heartbreak in my life,

I would be half of the person that I am today,

and I wouldn't know myself near as well

or have really any of my songs, so, [laughs] underrated.

[cymbal crashes]

Performing live on awards shows is the scariest thing ever.

I feel really lucky to do it,

but maybe overrated just 'cause it's so terrifying.

Truly, before I perform or anything like that,

I'm like visibly shaking, like a little chihuahua,

fighting the urge to vomit it. [laughs]

I'm so scared.

[cymbal crashes]

Mustaches are so underrated.

I think mustaches are the cutest thing ever.

I think guys with mustaches are so cute.

It's a very specific one.

I just love it.

I think it's amazing. [imitates kiss]

[cymbal crashes]

Oh gosh, that's a tough one.

Being a teenager is so overrated.

But the second I turned 20, I was like,

Oh, but I miss my teenage years.

I dunno, there's a little bit of that,

but I'd have to say overrated,

'cause it does suck a lot of the time.

[cymbal crashes]

Being in your twenties,

overrated or underrated?

I've been 20 for, like, nine months,

so I don't know if I understand the full breadth

of what it means to be in your twenties.

But so far, so good, so underrated.

[cymbal crashes]

Overrated, I haven't been in a rom-com phase lately.

I like watching the most depressing,

sad movies where there's no plot whatsoever.

That's my fave now.

There is a plot, the movie Close.

It's this, I think it's Belgian or something.

It was just nominated for a bunch of awards.

It was so good.

I love the movie Tar, so good.

I don't know, but I do love everything.

I love movies.

I don't know, I do love rom-coms.

[cymbal crashes]

Writing fan fiction is underrated.

It definitely developed some

of my narrative writing skills that way. [laughs]

But maybe posting them

on online forums is maybe overrated,

'cause I don't know if you'll want that up there forever.

[cymbal crashes]

Ooh, making out's underrated.

Making out is the best, love it.

What's not to love?

[cymbal crashes]

High heels are so overrated, so overrated.

Don't love 'em.

But it is what it is.

Sometimes it makes a dress look better, but overrated.

[cymbal crashes]

Going to therapy is so underrated.

The most underrated thing ever.

I feel like there's such a stigma

that if you're generally pretty happy and stable,

that you shouldn't waste your time going to therapy.

And I always kind of thought that.

But I'm pretty okay and neurotypical,

and going to therapy has just changed my life in every way.

So I think very underrated, highly recommend.

[cymbal crashes]

Underrated, I love American Girl dolls.

It's shaped me as a person so much.

I had the Girl of the Year, Lanie, I forget,

I think it was like 2012 or something.

She had this curly hair

and she was an environmentalist.

And I just remember being 10 years old

and being so obsessed with this doll

and being convinced that I was going to cure every ailment

that the world had through this doll.

And yeah, I don't know,

it's just very inspiring.

It's a good thing for kids to be into, I think.

[cymbal crashes]

Getting together with your ex?

You guys, sequel was never as good as the original, never.

[drum beats]
