It's been five years since The Weeknd has done an interview, but since he has a new album out he thought it might be a good idea!
There were a lot of take aways from the album, like how Abel refused to push back his album because he knew his fans wanted/needed!
Another take away from the interview he reveals that he is a huge fan of Jim Carrey. Back in 2019 Abel ended up texting Jim and they realized they could see each other's homes from their own! They could see each other wave using a telescopes. From there Abel told Jim about growing up as a fan of his. It should also be noted their both Canadian!
"And when I told him about my mom taking me to seeThe Mask, he knew the theater!" he said. "Anyway, on my birthday, he called and told me to look out my window, and on his balcony he had these giant red balloons, and he picked me up and we went to breakfast. It was surreal. Jim Carrey was my first inspiration to be any kind of performer, and I went to breakfast with him on my first day of being 30."
