    “And not only that but, you know, this situation was involving someone that I [am] extremely close to, so I just felt like on some loyal s**t, and on some do the right thing, you have to be responsible. Absolutely I’m changing up the record,” she added. Kehlani continued, “It was business and it was also loyalty to a situation. This is not an industry friendship. That’s really my friend and someone I say I love you to.”

    “She is so supportive and so, so sweet,” JoJo told Entertainment Tonight during a recent virtual sit-down. “Her and Sam Smith were talking about how much they loved my new album… they did like, this joint interview, and they were both talking about it, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, that is so sweet!'”

    The remix of “Lonely Hearts” featuring Lovato will be released on 28 August as part of the “Good to Know” deluxe edition.

    JoJo Assigns Mother to Lighting Duty When Shooting Sensual Music Video for 'Comeback'

    Instagram

    Aside from sharing the behind-the-scenes story, the ‘Leave (Get Out)’ singer promotes her new song featuring Tory Lanez and 30 Roc as one that oozes the ‘sexy time playlist’ vibe.
    May 8, 2020
    AceShowbiz – JoJo has apparently made the filming of her music video for “Comeback” a family affair. On Thursday, May 7, the “Too Little Too Late” hitmaker released the “very sexy” visual for the latest single off her “Good to Know” album, and revealed in an interview that her mother did lend a hand during its production.
    Speaking about the sensual music video, the 29-year-old singer told E!’s Scott Tweedie for HappE! Hour that it was shot at her home in Los Angeles. “This table that I’m talking to you on, we turned it into a surface for me to kind of crawl on and dance on and do all these things,” she dished. “And my mom was, like, helping hold up the lighting and stuff.”
    Though admitting that having her mother around during the sensual shoot “was weird,” the “Leave (Get Out)” singer still found the process “fun.” On the reason why, she explained, “My mom, she’s no prude. So it’s not like she was like ‘oh my!’ clutching pearls or anything.” She additionally noted that a friend, “who’s a director, come through – wearing a mask and everything” to do the shoot.
    When discussing the single featuring Tory Lanez and 30 Roc, JoJo acknowledged its steamy elements. “I guess some people are surprised to hear me talkin’ that way,” she weighed in before pointing out, “But yeah, it’s a fun song. You definitely need to add it to your sexy time playlist type of vibe.”

    Upon releasing the promo video, JoJo announced in an Instagram post, “this is dedicated to everyone who’s looking forward to that post-quarantine comeback with bae.” She continued spilling, “made this video IN MY CRIB !!! #quarantinestyle @torylanez and I shot our parts in separate states (f*kin ‘rona…) but AYE. we made it WERK. Ps- we accept no liability for any babies made as a result of your post covid comeback sex.”

    “Comeback” comes from JoJo’s fourth studio album “Good to Know”, which was released on May 1. She explained that she was abstaining from sex in her process of making the record. “The album just finds me processing and getting to a place of realising I’ve never been alone my whole adult life,” she told PEOPLE. “I’ve always been in a relationship with somebody, and I was delaying a really important part of becoming an adult, which is being independent.”

    JoJo Gives Up Sex During Making of New Album, Admits to Cheating on Boyfriend

    WENN

    The ‘Too Little Too Late’ singer reveals she’s abstain from having sex while hard at work in the studio to complete her latest studio album ‘Good to Know’.
    May 1, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Pop star JoJo kept her focus while recording her latest album, “Good to Know”, by giving up sex.
    The singer, who is now happily single, admits she struggled to be independent after a string of relationships and wanted to fully commit herself to working on her new music.
    “The album just finds me processing and getting to a place of realising I’ve never been alone my whole adult life,” she tells People. “I’ve always been in a relationship with somebody, and I was delaying a really important part of becoming an adult, which is being independent.”
    The star reveals she was celibate for 10 months while working on the record.
    “I would go out on dates, but I loved saying, ‘OK, good night,’ ” she adds.
    The “Leave (Get Out)” hitmaker admits self-care helps her stay positive when she starts getting down on herself. “I’ve been going to therapy since I was 18. I had more weight on my shoulders than I could bear,” she shares. “I would talk to my therapist once a week, and now it’s kind of as needed, but it’s really nice to have that impartial and professional opinion. I’m very fortunate that I could do that.”
    And Jojo isn’t about to diss men, confessing she has often been to blame for failed romances and revealing she once cheated on her boyfriend after a night of drinking.
    “I self-sabotaged because I didn’t feel worthy of a loving, lasting relationship,” she says. “I didn’t love myself. I am actively practising self-love. It’s not just something you arrive at. I need to really work at it.”
