Harper Trending on Billboard As Rosalía readied the release of her anticipated album Lux (out Friday, Nov. 7), the global pop star was also filming for the upcoming third season of Euphoria. How Rosalía Crafted Her Wildly Ambitious Album While Filming ‘Euphoria’: ‘For Some Reason, I Didn’t Completely Go Crazy’ Rosalía: Photos From the Billboard Cover Shoot Jelly Roll Says Louis Vuitton Store in Sydney ‘Legitimately Just Treated Us Like We Were Finna Rob That Place’ “It was very challenging to do both. I was recording the album and producing and checking mixes, everything, while I was shooting Euphoria,” shares the Billboard cover star. “I had to divide my mind between both, and it was the first time, also, that I was doing something like this — preparing a character, studying lines. These are new things for me. It’s very different from making an album and making music. So that was a real challenge.” Plus, despite her fame, she still had to audition for a role: “Girl, of course, claro!” But once she landed the part and filming began, she says Euphoria co-star Alexa Demie had the best advice to share. “She’s been a very close friend of mine, and she’s been very supportive. The way she approaches it is so effortless, and that’s something very beautiful to see and very inspiring.” As for who has the best music taste on staff? “Definitely me,” she says with a laugh, before offering another answer. “Zendaya. Because Zendaya recommended Motomami to the director.” “When we were filming, I admire her so much, I didn’t want to distract her at all,” continues Rosalía. “So I wouldn’t talk to her too much. But when she would be off set, then she would explain that she knew about my music, and that made me very happy. It meant a lot, because I really like what she does. She can do it all.” Rosalía can, too. With Euphoria on her resume, she reveals that she would love to work with Quentin Tarantino or Sofia Coppola. But until then — and until the third season of Euphoria finally airs in 2026 — fans can cling to the singer’s fourth album, Lux, and read her full Billboard cover story.
