What's happening, guys? This is Young Hollywood and I'm so excited about today because we're at the RDMAs. Are you ready? You guys are nominated tonight? Yes! Congratulations. How does it feel to be here?

It feels great. We've been trying to come here for the past four or five RDMAs. And I'm so glad we made it because we're performing and we're nominated. So it's a really special thing for us to be here finally.

I just got married two months ago and Paris in the Rain was my wedding song. Really? No way. Well, first of all, congrats. That's incredible. Yes. What's your favorite thing about Disney?

I just love Disney just because it's like basically my childhood, you know. We all grew up on the movies. Yeah. I mean it's like our everyone's childhood. Yeah. Like I feel like everyone has a connection to Disney at some point in their life, you know. You can't hate on Disney in any way. No. You're just a bad person, I feel like.

We have a game. Are you guys willing to play?

Let's play.

Okay, there's three of you. So you kind of get an advantage. You might win compared to whoever else has played. All right. The game is called The Bestest Song of the Year. So I'm going to read the line and then you have to finish it or guess the artist. I've been running through the jungle. I've been running with the wolves to get to you. But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time. Honey, I rose up from the dead. I do this all the time.

This is Taylor Swift. Boom. Yes.

Is there somebody that's here that really inspires you guys?

Yeah. Um, Kelly Clarkson. I used to watch American Idol and be like, wow. She I want to do that. She's amazing. She's such a great singer.

Well, there's a category tonight called Double Tap. And I'm wondering, is there someone on social media that you're constantly liking but that you haven't met yet?

Paris Hilton. She comments on my pictures but I've never met her and she invited me to a launch the other day and I missed it. Paris Hilton, holler at your girl.

I don't think I have anyone. No one really like likes my pictures that I haven't like met yet. I don't know, I want to meet a lot of people that haven't liked my pictures yet. I really want to meet Shane Dawson. He's a YouTuber. I really like Shane.

Is there somebody that you're constantly liking online that you haven't met yet, that you'd love to meet? Physically liking? Yeah.

Oh, that's a good question. Like lots of hearts all the time. Actually, uh, it's kind of an odd choice, but Hans Zimmer. Wow. He's a he's a composer, a film composer, and I look up to him a lot. Anytime he posts anything, I'm the first to like it.

If you guys could choose another artist to nominate for an icon award, who would you choose?

I think a band for us growing up inspired us not just to make music, but to make music that mattered was Switchfoot. And I feel like a lot of bands were very influenced by them.

Do you have any big plans for summer?

We have like three tours. We're very excited. It's the first time we're doing real tours, uh, you know, living in the bus, show every night. Um, so we're very excited for that. Yeah.

Who's going to be the messiest person in the bus?

Probably me. Yeah.

And when you're not writing music or performing, what do you do for fun?

Uh, well, I just got, so I used to love skateboarding as a kid, so I just bought a new board. So I'm going to get back into skating. We we're going to go jet skiing as well.

Jet skiing. Jet skiing where? Everywhere. At the beach, like where?

The only problem is I'm really pale, so like I burn so easily. So me at the beach is like a nightmare. Put on the sunscreen because I need to. We will, we will, we will.

Guys, you're glowing at the moment. What are you talking about? You too. And you guys too, all right. Sunblock. Sunblock always.
