The hosts then asked to look through her profile before theParenthoodalum asked if she’s seen any huge stars that surprised her.

“Yeah, a few times. It’s kind of shocked me,” the Grammy winner confessed. “And it makes me feel better too because there’s such a vulnerability of being like, ‘Here’s the buffet of options today that I’m a part of.’ It made me feel better knowing that this person was on there too.”
