Sam Hunt appears on the Ellen DeGeneres Show Thursday (January 22nd) to perform his latest hit, “Take Your Time.” He’s really looking forward to meeting the talk show host.
“I respect her a ton, and I respect her appreciation for music. You see her doing so much for new artists,” says Sam. “I’ve seen segments where she’ll find artists on the internet and have them on and really give them exposure and help them out in a really cool way. I have, right off the bat, a ton of respect for anybody who appreciates music and especially new artists in music in the way that she does.”
Ellen routinely gives her male guests “Ellen” underwear, but just in case she isn’t forthcoming with the boxers for Sam, he’s prepared.
“Actually, my aunt found out I was gonna be on the show, and for Christmas, she got me some Ellen underwear,” he laughs. “I have some already that I may have to tell her that, or I may wear ‘em, actually.”
Sam is also prepping to launch his first headlining tour, Lipstick Graffiti Tour, January 29th at the Troubadour in West Hollywood.
