‘He was so sweet…he’s not a very showy person,’ began the Japanese/British singer.
‘He does things a lot behind the scenes to make sure everyone’s feeling okay. So kind.’

Sawayama also revealed how she landed the plum role.
She recalled: ‘I actually got a call out of the blue from Chad Stahelski, the director, and he said, “I’ve been trying to find this role and I’ve seen your music videos…what are you doing for the next three months?” Just like that.’
The performer recalled, however, that she suffered an injury during the early portion of filming.
‘On the first week, I pinched a nerve in my back just doing the most basic moves,’ she said.
The star was also seen outside GMA.
She cut a fashionable figure on the Big Apple’s sidewalks before heading into the studio.
The performer – who was previously in the running to represent the United Kingdom during the Eurovision contest – wore a black pinstripe vest that showed off a slight portion of her toned tummy.
The songwriter also donned a matching skirt that clung tightly to her sculpted figure.
