Last month, Lennon Stella gave her fans a mini-heart attack when she started a tweet with: "also thought you should know I am very pregnant." For those who stopped reading after those nine words ("Yeah, there was a lot of people that thought I was actually pregnant," Stella laughed to Billboard in a new interview with the Pop Shop Podcast; listen below), the rest of the tweet reads: "...with an album baby and i'm about to pop. ... three…two...one here we go 2020."

Over the past few months, she's been super busy on the road with The Chainsmokers and 5 Seconds of Summer, but once that wraps up, she's focusing entirely on the album.
