Ha*Ash Talk Working With Thalia on ‘Amiga Date Cuenta’ & More | Billboard In Conversation

Ha*Ash shares how performing at Viña del Mar in 2018 changed the trajectory of their career, how they’re able to maintain their energy after 23 years, working with Thalia on “Amiga Date Cuenta,” an upcoming release for a new single, red flags they have for men and more.

Ingrid Fajardo:
Hi, friends at Billboard! Today we’re here in Chile, and look at who we brought from Miami! Now we’re in Chile at Viña del Mar, how are you, Ha*Ash?

Ha*Ash:
We’re so happy with life, emotional, grateful. It’s our second time at Viña del Mar, so … We’re so happy to talk to you. 

Aw, how cute! So the last time you were here was 2018. How do the emotions feel this time around because, obviously, it’s totally different. This time you’re going to be singing. 

Well, the first time we came we were judges and we sang and it was a beautiful experience. We’ve talked about it a lot, but they were feelings that marked a “before” and an “after” in our career because Viña is watched by all of Latin America, and it was an opportunity for people to get to know our music. And I remember that there were countries where we were going to do performances in theaters, but after Viña we were able to do stadiums. So it was a “before” and “after” that was really important for us, and we’re so grateful for Viña. Now that we’ve received the invitation to come back again, we got really emotional because now we’re touring all over South America, and it’s a festival that we have a lot of appreciation for. It’s very prestigious, and it’s a monster, but we’re happy because our Chilean fans make us feel worthy of being here.

Keep watching for more!
