Ahead of her first film hitting theaters this weekend, SZA checked off another first: her talk show debut.
The Grammy Award winner appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” Monday and kicked off her interview lauding the actress for being her inspiration. The “Good Days” singer said she wrote a letter to the talk show host she never sent, thanking her for being “one of the few lovely white women” she emulates.
“When you’re younger and you’re a Black woman, there’s not a lot of examples all the time, and one of the few lovely white women that I looked up to so much on television, it was you because you were so yourself,” SZA said.
