OHMYGOSSIP — Zara Larsson thinks her career has lost “momentum”.
The 23-year-old star’s new album, ‘Poster Girl’, is her first in four years, and Zara feels like she’s almost starting her career all over again.
She explained: “That momentum is not there. I’m not Rihanna. People won’t wait like that in the pop world. The pop world moves fast. So I’m starting over in a way.
“I’m like, ‘Hey guys, what’s up? I’m alive.'”
Zara thinks the music industry has changed over recent years and she suggested that being relatable often comes at a price for pop stars.
She told The Independent: “These days, people don’t listen to your music because they feel like you’re an unreachable superstar, they do it because they feel like they’re almost supporting a friend.
“But Beyonce, who is my biggest idol, I don’t want her to be a real person. It’s weird. I want to keep her on this pedestal and I want to keep her ‘Godified’ – make her bigger than a person, because she’s influenced so much of my life that she’s almost like this mythical creature.
“And by being so accessible, it does take away the huge stardom that people used to have, where the only time they could see them was literally if they went to their concerts.”
Over the last year, Zara has only been able to interact with her fans via the internet amid the coronavirus pandemic.
And at times, the blonde beauty has questioned whether she’s been doing the right thing.
She said: “It’s been sucky, honestly. Seeing numbers and views and likes is not the same thing as seeing real people at shows or festivals.
“I’m like, ‘Is this even what I want to do?’ Because I haven’t done what I love for a long time.”
