Zara Larsson | Interview | Stingray Rising Stars

What got you into music?  

I honestly can’t tell what got me into the music industry, but it was probably when I was ten years old, and I won Sweden’s Got Talent. That opened a lot of doors for me, meeting people and such... But in music in general? I don’t know! I’ve just been doing music my whole life. I’ve always loved singing, and I’m living my childhood dream right now! 

If you weren’t doing music, what would you be doing right now? 

I would probably do something in entertainment. I don’t really love school... Maybe acting, or hosting stuff like a radio host. It would be really fun because I like to talk! Or I would do something like design, something creative. 

What is your favorite song of all time? 

It’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen because it’s like five songs in one. It’s a masterpiece, in my opinion. 

Who would you like to collaborate with? 

I would like to collaborate more with girls, with women. I was so excited to collaborate with Sabrina Carpenter, and I thought she was so lovely to work with and an amazing artist. So, more girls! Kehlani is on top of my list, Ariana Grande, Snoh Aalegra… so look out in the future for the gals! 

What are you working on right now? 

I’ve just finished my album! It’s ready to go! I guess I’m just working on not being too nervous about it. And when it’s out, I will run back in the studio and make another album. We’re not waiting four years for the next one!
