Madison Beer on the Maturity and Emotions of 'locket'

After a series of major events, Madison Beer spoke with Bru in our Los Angeles studios. She had just walked the runway for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and announced her new album, locket, set to release on January 16.

Upcoming Album Announcement

Hours before joining Bru, Madison shared on social media that her fourth album, locket, would be out soon. She co-wrote and co-produced the entire project.

Emotional Reaction to the Announcement

"I wasn't anticipating to cry after I posted it. Right before I posted it I had like a sample of the vinyl in my bed, and so I just went live for literally 30 seconds, and flashed it right before I posted just to get people excited and I started like shaking. I ended the live and then I posted my announcement, and just weirdly immediately started like hysterically crying. I don't know why."

Madison explained this emotional response as a mix of endings and beginnings. The album symbolizes closing one chapter and starting another, which naturally brought a surge of feelings.

"I just think it's kind of the end of an old chapter, the beginning of a new one. There's just so much, so many feelings that come along with it, but yeah, I was hit with like a wave of emotion."

Summary

Madison Beer reveals that launching her new album locket stirred unexpected emotions, marking a meaningful transition in her life and career.
