Canadian singer-songwriter Alessia Cara is known for her soulful voice and relatable lyrics, and she recently shared her Valentine’s Day must-haves with ET while celebrating her Made By campaign with Lenovo and the release of her new album.
Cara, who rose to fame with her hit song “Here” in 2015, has been making waves in the music industry with her unique sound and honest storytelling. And now, with the release of her third studio album “In The Meantime,” she is taking her artistry to new heights.
But amidst all the excitement of her album release and partnership with Lenovo, Cara took some time to share her Valentine’s Day essentials with ET. And it’s safe to say that her list is not your typical flowers and chocolates.
First on her list is a good book. “I love reading, so I always have a book with me,” Cara revealed. “It’s the perfect way to escape and get lost in a different world, especially on Valentine’s Day when everything is so lovey-dovey.”
Next up is a cozy blanket. “I’m a homebody, so I love snuggling up in a warm blanket and watching a movie,” she said. “It’s the perfect way to spend a romantic night in with your significant other or even by yourself.”
And speaking of movies, Cara’s third must-have is a good romantic comedy. “I’m a sucker for a good rom-com,” she admitted. “There’s something so comforting about watching a love story unfold on screen, especially on Valentine’s Day.”
But it’s not all about staying in for Cara. She also shared that she loves going out for a nice dinner with her loved ones. “I’m a foodie, so I always look forward to trying new restaurants and dishes,” she said. “Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to indulge in some delicious food and spend quality time with the people you love.”
And last but not least, Cara’s ultimate Valentine’s Day must-have is music. “As a musician, music is a huge part of my life,” she explained. “I love creating playlists for different moods and occasions, and Valentine’s Day is no exception. Whether it’s a playlist of love songs or just some feel-good tunes, music always sets the mood for me.”
Cara’s Made By campaign with Lenovo is all about celebrating creativity and individuality, and her Valentine’s Day must-haves perfectly align with that message. “I think it’s important to embrace your own unique interests and preferences, especially on a day like Valentine’s Day when there can be a lot of pressure to conform to certain expectations,” she said.
The singer also shared her excitement for her new album, which she describes as a “journey of self-discovery.” “I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share my music and connect with my fans through my art,” she said. “And I hope that my album and my partnership with Lenovo can inspire others to embrace their own creativity and passions.”
Cara’s Valentine’s Day must-haves may not be the traditional ones, but they perfectly reflect her individuality and authenticity. And with her new album and partnership with Lenovo, she is spreading a message of self-love and acceptance, which is what Valentine’s Day is all about.
So whether you’re spending Valentine’s Day with your significant other, friends, or even by yourself, take a cue from Alessia Cara and embrace your own unique must-haves to make the day special. And don’t forget to check out her new album “In The Meantime” and the Made By campaign with Lenovo for some creative inspiration. Happy Valentine’s Day!
