Hi, I am Jacob Artist from Glee.
I think I could be on Glee. Do you want to hear my voice?
Absolutely.
Whoo! Chills. Shivers.
Does that just move you beyond?
Beyond belief, more so than anything, I think.
You nailing it. Are you going to cast me?
Yeah. Yeah. Done and done. I'll be on Glee.
Hi, Jacob.
Hello, hello.
Great. You have the best speaking voice.
Oh, thank you.
We were doing a countdown, like we have we have to do like a mic check. And can we just like reenact your test one, check one, two, three?
Absolutely. So it went a little something like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
I know you're kind of obsessed with our pillow.
A little bit. Yes.
Is there anybody, I mean this is our like celebrity pillow. I know you want to be on it. We will put you on it after today.
Desperately.
Is there anybody in there that you cannot name?
I think I've gotten just about everybody except for this stranger. I don't know.
Now this stranger is very important and integral to Young Hollywood. He is our CEO, R. J. Williams.
Okay, okay. I it was either that or Brad Pitt. I wasn't sure.
You will love you for that. So, okay. I'm glad to know. This is going to make it into the segment. Is there anybody there that you'd love to work with that you haven't worked with?
I'm gonna have to go with Cameron Diaz. I think I've had a crush on her since her Charlie's Angels. Love that movie, so I'm gonna say her. Yeah.
Really? Okay. So, Young Hollywood, we partner with H&M and it's a recycling program and I know we asked you ahead of time. It's we are asking celebrities to donate an item of clothing that they no longer want or need. And they're recycling textiles. It's great for the environment. And I know we asked if you had anything to bring in today. And behind door number one. a fabric. Don't don't recycle that pillow. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Thank you. I kind of want that t-shirt. I feel like I could sleep in that t-shirt.
It does look like a comfy sleep shirt, doesn't it?
We are going to recycle it in a recyclable Young Hollywood bag. Can we talk about one of your tweets?
Yeah.
Okay, I'm gonna read it out.
Okay.
Off to the Elton John Oscar party. Hope I don't run into Jennifer Lawrence because I may not be able to control the drooling.
That I good news, I did not see her, so there was no drooling.
Well, I don't know if that's good news or not.
You're right. It was kind of bad, actually, now that I think about it. I was so
You did not see her.
No, I didn't see her.
You didn't step on her gown, you didn't do anything to her.
I didn't step on her gown. She didn't trip anymore. I But yeah, I was really looking forward to it. I wanted to see her because I think she's so talented and beautiful and awesome.
But didn't you find the tripping endearing? I thought that was so It it makes people love her even more because she's so that girl. If anybody's gonna trip and make it make it the best.
I totally agree.
It's gonna be Katniss.
Yep.
So one more of your tweet. It was something about Justin Timberlake that every time you put on a suit and tie, you want to break into song and dance like JT.
Totally. I um I went to a really cool party the other day and I had like a bow tie and like a black suit and I just kind of was internally the whole time singing that Justin Timberlake song. Yeah.
And you felt like JT.
Yeah, I felt like a boss, for sure. Yeah.
So speaking of Twitter, I have some Twitter questions from from some of your fans that knew you were coming in today. So, ask Jacob if he has any weird quirks or ask him random facts about himself.
Weird quirks. I actually just discovered one the other day. Melissa on the show who plays Marley pointed it out. She's been in here.
Oh, has she?
She's great. She um she was telling me that I apparently sometimes if there's a song playing, I'll just go Like this weird kind of drone and I never ever realized it and she was like, are you aware that you're doing this? Cuz like we've had scenes where like we're slow dancing and I'm like kind of like in her ear, whatever and she's like, you're kind of like moaning and droning right now. And I'm like, oh, no, I gotta cut that out. So now I'm like very hyperly conscious about not moaning when I hear a song.
You just do that with Melissa. Just admit it. Come on. Well, actually, speaking of which, C A F. I think it's fee or fie, had a second question that I thought was fantastic. Ask Jacob if he prefers the Jarley romance or the Jader bromance, meaning Jake and Marley or Jake and Rider. Do you have a preference?
Tough choice. Yeah. It is tough. It is tough. You know, I think I mean You can't go against a good bromance but the women, you know.
I know, that's true. Well, if we saw the last episode, he wasn't a very good bro her to at all.
No, he was not. Cutting in on your woman. Yeah, so I'm gonna say I'm gonna say Jarley because of that. Yes.
Okay, so last question, L N A G A 1 wants to know what song would you like to record and what song would you like to cover with Melissa?
What song would I like to record? I I would love to record a Frank Ocean song. I think that his music is so great and cool and original and I've been a huge fan of his now for a while. And then with Melissa, have you heard that new Rihanna song Stay, that's a duet. It's her and a guy and she did it like on the Grammys and she was Yes. It's a very emotional song. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that that would be really cool and I think it'd be probably a special moment for the two characters as well.
So I have a game for you. Okay. It's become a rite of passage that every Glee cast member that comes into Young Hollywood must play this game. It's become very popular. It's called Glee Club or not. We're gonna show you behind the you on the monitor pictures of celebrities and we're gonna say Glee Club or not. Have they recorded music or a single recorded music at all? Doesn't have to be on Glee. So it's it's a yes or no.
Okay. Gotcha.
All right. Here we go. It's behind you on the monitor.
On my looking. Okay, gotcha.
Eddie Murphy.
Yes. Yes.
Was that easy for you?
Yeah, I don't know why it was so easy cuz I could not even think of a song right now if you asked me, but I was like, Eddie Murphy, of course.
I mean, he looks strapping, but I'm gonna say no.
Yeah! Oh my god, I'm on a roll. Okay.
Yes. I remember she had like a single or something.
Yep, yep, yep, yep. Fantastic. Oh. Mila Kunis. She's beautiful. Oh, This is really This is really very distracting photo.
No.
Yes. Scarlett Johansson.
You know what? I don't know why but I want to say yes.
Yes! Okay. There we go. Regis Philbin.
Oh man. Why is everybody laughing? I don't know. Oh, he has to have it at some point.
Correct. Yes, okay, good. Sweet. Okay. And last but not least. Oh.
