I’m happy that my music can reach so many different people. Literally, every type of fan was in that audience, it feels incredible. LEONARDY: I loved the New York audience’s energy. So I’ve just been waiting for four years. I think in 2019 you were doing a show here, and I was trying so hard to get a ticket and I couldn’t. Last night was wild-just seeing the fans for the first time in person, finally. I had a ball! I was really excited to come to New York. LEONARDY: Well, you’re doing an amazing job. I don’t think I’ve ever done this much singing ever before. And not only that, it’s just non-stop singing. LEONARDY: I was looking at the schedule, and I was like, “Damn, you’re really shooting straight through.” I’m on a tour bus on the way to Maryland for a show tonight. The next day, she called me from her tour bus, sounding as bright and animated as ever, to talk European stans, Barbie, and her first headlining tour.ĪVA MAX: Good. The after-party was no less energetic: crop-top gays and others in designer suits collided on the dancefloor while Drag Race winner Aquaria and two-time Eurovision winner Loreen lip-synced to “Euphoria.” Then Max came on stage and sang two songs before dancing the night away with a glass of wine in hand. Max would maintain her composure through the 18-song set, though she did acknowledge breaking a sweat as her dancers handed her a powder puff on a rhinestoned platter. It’s no secret that many artists have struggled to materialize IRL fans from their Spotify playlist placements, but at her New York stop at Irving Plaza, this wasn’t a problem for Max: as she sang, preteens and adult gay men alike shouted along with every word. It took four years for her first tour-cheekily named “On Tour (Finally)”-to get underway in Europe and America, and the stakes were high. In the four years since Ava Max dropped her 2019 hit “Sweet but Psycho,” a lot has happened: album delays, hits, misses, collabs, breakups, WorldPride, a Coca-Cola flavor, a Roblox concert, and a global pandemic.
