Great interview!. This is why she is soooo popular. She is real, outgoing, funny, talented, mature and child like at the same time. She appeals to kids as well as adults. There are Grace vanderwaal fan clubs that consist of mostly adults. Grace is a role model for all ages.
Why can't other celebs be real in interviews. I've seen a lot of interviews where I thought the celeb was being real, but not like Grace. She is so open and honest.
Notice how effortlessly entertaining she is; she has the knack for being mesmerizing when she talks. So smart, so charismatic, so charming. Which explains why she sings so well; she's telling a story and she's a great actress. Which is why her music videos are so good and why she'll have no trouble being Stargirl. My admiration for this genius knows no bounds.
My mind is forever blown. That deep insight of hers about musicians and actors. So simple, so obvious, yet no one ever used that theory to explain why many more actors become musicians than the opposite. Acting doesn’t satisfy one’s urge to express their true selves like music does. It is that simple. From Jeff Bridges and Steve Martin to Bacon Brothers, Johnny Depp to Jamie Foxx and even Keanu Reeves, they all prove Grace’s point beyond any shadow of doubt. I felt two things while watching this interview. One, the hosts were moved by her as if they were listening to a motivational speaker. Two, we are much like Newton just playing with pebbles on the shore, while the whole ocean in front of us, that is her mind, remains to be explored. All the wisdom and insights she will give us in her lifetime can and will change the world. You may not have realised yet, but she already makes you want to be someone she would respect and admire.
Grace's point is interesting and defendable, but I am not sure this is the reason of why actors become singers more than the opposite. Because I truly think actors express part of themselves too, by interpreting the role they get in their own way, by exploring some deep part of them. Acting a murderer for instance, demands from the actor to explore dark parts of himself, experiencing angry, jealousy, nastiness...in his own way. Second, when the interviewer sums up Grace's think by saying actors have a script...it is true, but script is not acting, it is only guidelines. Plus, singers can have scripts too as they don't always sing their own songs. See Grace, loving covering other songs than hers. It is kind of acting too I think. Hope I made my point clear...
nathasion - I think you made your point clear. I would agree that Grace's singing, whether her own song or covering someone else's, is like acting. Especially the emotional songs - she goes deep into the song and makes it her own.
@@nathasion9556 Her covering a song is definitely acting, as you describe it. That is why Disney cast her as the lead in Stargirl, even though she had never "acted" a line in her life.
Love everything about this; whip smart Grace in happy, relaxed, sparkling, entertaining form. Clever, outspoken, kind, creative girl, and pure, unadulterated, beautiful performance.. Tonic for the soul..
@@stephenolan5539 She tells of how she wrote Darkness Keeps Chasing Me in 20 minutes when they had left over time at the end of a studio session. A lot of the songs on Just the Beginning were cowritten, but that one is all Grace.
This deserves man more views: top interviewer and Grace at her absolute best. Somebody in the comments below wrote: Old soul (we heard that before) and the kind heart of a child. Yessss !
You took the words out of my mouth, Brent! I wonder what her IQ is, it's gotta be way up there. And yeah, charming and funny- it's like she was born to be famous, notice? :-)
Most 14 yr old girls can talk up a storm like this, it's just that Grace can do it in front of a mic where normal girls would freeze up. Millie can talk up a storm just as natural as this, both girls are very smart. Watching a video of Millie and Maddie together you can't help notice how much smarter Millie was and I wondered how Grace would handle how quick Millie is. They really would make good friends if they found themselves living in LA some day
I was really impressed both with Kane and Grace. She has the most perfect name for her personality. God bless her parents for raising such wonderful and down to earth girls! Great job Kane..you Rock and have a new follower!!!!
What an awesome interview. I have now learned more about Grace then i thought i knew. My opinion, if i may, come back to the Kane show. you were so relaxed so into it and so realistic. This is were we meet Grace. The true unexpected Grace. So friggen amazing.
Fantastic interview!! So wish it had been longer. Just can't seem to get enough of this young lady! Thank you for the thoughtful questions and drawing her out more. I like those interviews where something new comes out. Time to go make some mac-n-cheese w/broccoli!
Her abilities with rhythm and timing changes are under appreciated - many people just know she has a special way with her songs, without knowing why. Yet she was doing it with her very first performance, I Don't Know My Name.
In a prior interview she spoke about when she writes a song, she literally sees it played out in her head. Like Moonlight she knew what and how it would be played out in the Video. I stand, that up to this moment it has been Grace and all Grace from the get go. Anybody can correct me on this one, she said that when the industry tries to change me I will walk away. Katy Pery, Pink, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Madonna, all did and are still doing it their way. They all can just flat out sing, well maybe all but one, but made millions anyway. In that sense Simon's comment about being the next Taylor Swift, what he meant that Grace will join the ranks of these artists because she is determined to emulate their work ethics and to exercise her independence along the way. What a Gift! There are no words to describe this interview, except, "Mind Blown." (borrowed)
Yep, well said , have you heard Burned?, It's one of her original not yet studio released. It's so damn good. I believe it could be her first number one hit in the making
Yes it will be , but it's a stragety now of picking the right timing to release it. While the TS high is going, they won't do it. It will just get lost and not seen well
to any of the interviewers who might read my comment,you were in the presence of perhaps the greatest female voice to have ever lived at the tender age of only 13 how dare you guys not applaud and tell her how unbelievably amazing that version of that song sounded right there at the moment she finished!my god what’s wrong with you big headed want to be famous radio hosts all of you should’ve stood up from your stools and bowed down to her thanking her for the honor and privilege to have her sing that amazing song for us .each time she sings a song she puts her heart and soul into that moment in performing the song that’s why they all change slightly cause she’s not robotic that’s what i love about her live performances it’s always fresh and new.that was the best performance of that song i’ve heard and you guys just sat there and said nothing about it after she just poured it out of her soul i would’ve been like on the floor holding my chest going you just captured my heart may i please have it back?i promise i’ll do something noble with it.
I'm not really into defending them but if you listened to their questions they were basically about AGT, a tour and live performances. Since radio doesn't play her and they have to handle so many singers that was probably the 1st or 2nd time they've heard Moonlight. They never asked her how a 13 year old handled Japan, Austria, Jason Mraz, Cindi Lauper, Katy Perry still to this day hasn't met her or even why that is significant. The guy on the far right is a Fanderwaal the other 3 don't really know much about her but I still enjoyed this interview. If you watch it again they edited it right after she finished the song so we have no idea how they reacted, he did give her a great compliment at the end
I believe that they were still in an awe moment with her quick wit and infectious personality. Grace can have that effect on people when they first meet this genius prodigy.
This is one of my favorite takes of DitMoonlight! I love your voice and energy so much! And... I would love to see you do some more acting. You are so natural at that. When the right role comes in. Just my .02.
I think a variation of the Prince and the Pauper would be a good role for her. Possibly with an alternate universe where her mother bought her a ukulele and she didn't have an "I'll show them attitude", and gives up on it after a few weeks and does not become famous.
2 things about Grace being an actress: A) 2 words: Barbra Streisand. 2 more words: Justin Timberlake (who actually starred in one of my favorite films of all time, entitled "About Time." 2 more words: Kris Kristofferson (excellent actor as well as a great singer). B) Secondly, I think she could definitely write the screenplay for herself - I almost predict that actually coming to pass. You're welcome to come back and give a thumbs up to this comment, years hence, when/if that comes to pass :-)
Every once in a while there people who can do the transition to acting, tai'nt a lot of them, seen Grace enough to know she would have been a better "Eleven" than Millie but I figure Grace wouldn't shave her head
@@Cal99ers Boy are you wrong, she shaved for her Video DAWYDK, her head was bald and Mlillie is one of her best friends along with Maddie Ziegler, she has made her acting debute ans killed, she is an amazing actor
@@jamesgriego1089So true, and my take on her not buzzing (not shaved) all her hair off was based on how insecure she appeared to be about her looks 6 years ago. So self conscious about her brows and thin hair. Her mind expanded soooo much by 16/17 years old. PS. Remember Tina apologizing to Grace because she inherited her thin/fine hair? | have to add, I thought Grace would make a better psycho that Millie.
I've seen Grace on so many radio talk shows yet to this day I don't see or hear the shows playing the best music of her generation, what's up these shows?
"I put broccoli in it!" Foreshadows of 'Florets'... I somehow got her wrong there; I got the impression she dosn't like the greens after hearing her comments on Florets.
Anyone else find themselves with the biggest smile on their face while watching?
yes
She is pretty damn wonderful. :)
She has charmed them all, hasn't she?
Michael hazle aren’t you a little greedy ?
She's an old soul with an adult's brain and a child's heart. The perfect combination for a growing artist.
grace if your reading this when i have rough days your music gets me through them you are what the world needs
Grace is absolutely the best! Her voice needs no added processing. She can reproduce her sound on any mic. What a fun interview.
Great interview!. This is why she is soooo popular. She is real, outgoing, funny, talented, mature and child like at the same time. She appeals to kids as well as adults. There are Grace vanderwaal fan clubs that consist of mostly adults. Grace is a role model for all ages.
You can be sure. She is a role model even to adult people. One of the most genuine spirits I've ever known
She is soooooo much fun.... And equally intelligent too! How can a girl of 13 be so thoughtful?!
Why can't other celebs be real in interviews. I've seen a lot of interviews where I thought the celeb was being real, but not like Grace. She is so open and honest.

We'll see what the critics think. Some of them see the world through colored glasses.
That kid is inspiring to watch. A real role model . She is raw and real

I love this young lady. She is so genuine and I hope she never changes.
Grace just gets more amazing every time we see her.
Grace VanderWaal is so adorable
About Grace being an actress: Disney has her staring in a movie filming this fall, 2018, as "Stargirl"! I listen to her every day, no kidding.
I love this interview.
And I am obsessed with Grace. It seems to be a very old soul in her body.
Wow! Just 13 yrs old and she wrote moonlight! She is a pro! She's my favorite singer songwriter! ^ ^
IIRC she said in another interview that if she can't finish a song in a few hours she gives up on it.
@@stephenolan5539 She tells of how she wrote Darkness Keeps Chasing Me in 20 minutes when they had left over time at the end of a studio session. A lot of the songs on Just the Beginning were cowritten, but that one is all Grace.
Grace is the kind of wonderful kid that really gives me hope for the future.
Great stuff, thanks! Now you can see why Grace is absolutely adored by her fans - she is one of a kind for sure.
We are all one of a kind.I would say she is the light witch would show us out of the darkness.

@@Sartorri4666 Totally! Thanks Todd.

Hot 99.5 became super cool when Grace appeared and wowed the hosts and the rest of us. Great interview.
Grace really knows how to tell a story; probably why she is such a great songwriter. Well, I will always love her.
Then in less than 2 months Grace has one of the best concerts I've ever viewed in Austen TX
Cute, lovely, smart, unique, simply Amazing! Grace Vanderwaal, the one a only.
I was really impressed both with Kane and Grace. She has the most perfect name for her personality. God bless her parents for raising such wonderful and down to earth girls! Great job Kane..you Rock and have a new follower!!!!
She is humble and honest
Grace is awesome!
Thanks so much. Grace is just refreshing and inspiring (again!). Wish the interview would last an hour...
Look at the faces of the interviewers; they are so taken with her.
What an awesome interview. I have now learned more about Grace then i thought i knew. My opinion, if i may, come back to the Kane show. you were so relaxed so into it and so realistic. This is were we meet Grace. The true unexpected Grace. So friggen amazing.

She is the best, playing and sing with that rhythm is not easy at all.

that definitely should be a hit song... as others have pointed out in youtube comments, it sounds like could be the intro song for a James Bond movie
Yes it will be , but it's a stragety now of picking the right timing to release it. While the TS high is going, they won't do it. It will just get lost and not seen well
Simon Cowell said that she is one of the very few people that he trusts.
It's weird but this is the third time I've watched this; just fun to watch Grace be so smart and funny.
I love you Grace! You are my hero and you inspired me! ^ ^
Pure love in beautiful action = Grace
Down to earth, must be her Dutch blood, love her.
Tanks your parents to have made you...............your are just. so amzing that there is no words to describe you.
first grace won america´s got talent and now got a treehouse from treehouse masters on animal planet two we love very much!!

Look at captions 😂😂
10:10 11:05 and all moonlight song very funny captions 😂
she's got it whatever it is
He looks exactly like I thought he would look. I love listening to this show in the car!
Looking to the four adults in the room smiling from ear to ear shows how entertaining Grace really is.
Webster Dictionary should put a pitcher of Grace beside the word: Adorable! (Sweet,Smart,Funny and Talented.........)
the interviewers looks grown ups from Grace's smartness and maturity. why so adorable Grace.
Man, just listen to her account of the audition process; such a natural talent for telling a story. Which is reflected in her songwriting.
I've seen Grace on so many radio talk shows yet to this day I don't see or hear the shows playing the best music of her generation, what's up these shows?
No Grace we saw what you did it was more that the peanutbutter sandwich, you were adlibing off the top of your head, that's a gift
18:00 “Florets “.
Jerry Reed singer to actor.
"I put broccoli in it!" Foreshadows of 'Florets'...

She's trying to be a vegan
