1
All right.
2
We're back with Ruby Spears.
3
And I was just saying to you when I was watching that clip, I remember seeing that video and thinking, whoever she is, she's going to be huge.
4
I just knew from that video you were.
5
There was something very special about you and dynamic.
6
And look at you.
7
Look at you now.
8
Thank you.
9
Now, that was fantastic, by the way.
10
And the video is amazing.
11
I realize watching you, I need a lot more arm movement.
12
I'm not moving my arms enough.
13
Yeah.
14
I do a lot of wiggling, as Rosemary called it, the woman who taught me my big finish.
15
But I don't use my arms nearly enough, and I'm not lifted enough.
16
Yeah, just use it a little bit more, and I think it'll, you know, it just takes practice.
17
But you're doing really good.
18
Thanks.
19
I see you.
20
It looks really cool.
21
Thank you very much.
22
But now, how often do you, like, you're getting ready to go on tour, right?
23
So how often, how much do you dance every day?
24
hours, sometimes to like 10 o'clock at night, sometimes to like 6.
25
Yeah.
26
Really?
27
All the time.
28
Every day?
29
Every day.
30
Wow.
31
That's amazing.
32
So but then you go out dancing too?
33
Sometimes.
34
Yeah.
35
I need to a little bit more.
36
Now, how do you maintain your energy?
37
Because I'm trying to figure out, I had the whole Grammy weekend, and I'm exhausted.
38
I can't, I don't know how you do it.
39
I mean, well, you're 22.
40
But other than that, how do you do it?
41
But do you have downtime that you just chill?
42
Yeah, sometimes.
43
But I get a little antsy.
44
I love dancing.
45
I love what I do, so I, you know.
46
But I definitely make time for like massages and stuff like that.
47
That's what you do to completely unwind?
48
Yeah, yeah.
49
Massages.
50
And movies, too. And movies?
51
Mm-hmm.
52
What have you seen lately?
53
I saw a movie last night.
54
It's an old movie with Goldie Hawn.
55
It's called There's a Girl in My Soup.
56
I like watching old movies, like fun stuff like that.
57
When was that, There's a Girl in My Soup?
58
That's very old.
59
Yeah, yeah.
60
Like really old movies and stuff.
61
Yeah.
62
Well, I could see where you do like a remake of a Goldie Hawn movie like that.
63
Maybe you should do that.
64
Maybe so.
65
All right.
66
Now, do you think that when you're working as hard as you are, because I watched that Driven, that VH1 special that they did on you,
67
and it's amazing to see what you've done in this amount of time.
68
You started when you were eight, right?
69
And what you've accomplished.
70
And for you to make it at all is, you know, the odds are always against you in this business.
71
But for you to make it to where you are now, what's the hardest thing?
72
What's the biggest surprise to you that you thought, I wanted fame but I had no idea it was going to be like this?
73
Honestly, the whole thing, nobody can tell you what it's like once, you know, I mean, you can't be prepared in any way.
74
It's just, you know, there's some wonderful things and there's, you know, some kind of downfalls with everything.
75
But I think right now I'm just, you know, at a point where I just want to keep, you know, the energy, creative energy going and keep, you know, pushing myself and challenging myself.
76
And, you know, that's like a part of the whole process right now.
77
Is it hard sometimes?
78
I would think it's hard to have fun because you've got everybody watching every single move you make.
79
And no one can understand, you know, if you put it on your own level, like if you're at work and all of a sudden everybody in your office is talking about you,
80
you times that times a million of what's going on with you.
81
You just, it's got to be just so much pressure to do everything right.
82
Well, you do, but there's some times where, you know, you have to just let loose.
83
I mean, I try not to pay too much attention to, like, tabloids and stuff like that of what they they say about you and everything.
84
And just kind of, I don't know, go home and hang out with your girlfriends and do stuff like that.
85
But I see what you're saying.
86
Yeah, it can get a little grueling sometimes.
87
Yeah.
88
Well, you're handling it, I think, pretty well.
89
I think it's a lot to be put on a 22-year-old.
90
And so I think you're an amazing person.
91
That's a lot on your shoulders.
92
Well, thank you.
93
Thank you for having such a wonderful show for me to watch in the morning.
94
Well, oh, I'm glad that you get to watch it.
95
So, now what's the, what's the, first of all, I asked you, are you kind of, have you caught your breath from just performing just now?
96
Because I asked you in the dressing room if you would teach me, you do 500 to 1,000 sit-ups a day?
97
Every single day?
98
Not every single day, but I try to, yeah, almost every single day.
99
All right, so I want to know what kind of sit-ups you do.
100
I want you to teach me those sit-ups, and I want you to show me some workout things, because I need to know.
101
All right.
102
All right, yeah.
103
We're going right here.
104
OK.
105
All right.
106
OK, lay down.
107
OK.
108
You lay down there.
109
All right, I'll lay down here.
110
No, no, no, I got to do something.
111
OK.
112
All right.
113
Lay down.
114
Yeah.
115
Now, I'm going to stand over you like this.
116
Oh, you're going to push my legs back, aren't you?
117
Yes.
118
OK, so give me your legs.
119
All right.
120
You hold on to mine.
121
Yeah, I know.
122
I know this one.
123
Throw them down.
124
Yeah, like that.
125
You're good.
126
I know.
127
I know this one.
128
I would have shaved my legs if I thought I was doing this.
129
All right.
130
What else?
131
Okay, let me see.
132
How come I'm doing all the work?
133
You can, let me see.
134
Lay down.
135
All right.
136
Okay.
137
I've got this mic packs back here.
138
Okay.
139
Watch that coffee table.
140
Usually, I'll do with my legs up, and I'll do 50 of these, like this.
141
Yeah, just put your hands up.
142
Yeah.
143
Like that.
144
You do 50.
145
Then you do 50 of these with your hands like that, yeah.
146
All right.
147
And then this is the hard one.
148
Then you do 50 with your butt up like that.
149
Okay.
150
With the mic pack, that hurts.
151
I'm sure this was a good view for everybody in the audience. And then.
152
Yeah.
153
And then you just repeat that.
154
Yeah.
155
The whole thing over again.
156
So those are the only stomach things you do?
157
Mm-hmm.
158
You don't do any of these things?
159
Sometimes, yeah, I do these.
160
Sometimes.
161
And then another thing that really works good, if you turn sideways like this, and do it.
162
It works the side part right here.
163
Yeah, that's the thing I don't like doing.
164
I don't like the side things.
165
Yeah.
166
All right.
167
And then do it the other way.
168
Right.
169
Two.
170
All right.
171
And now, how many, like, do you count by ones or tens?
172
Ones.
173
And then also, this is the way we should have interviewed the whole time.
174
Yeah.
175
Because you've got to be tired.
176
I want to help you out here.
177
Uh-huh.
178
All right.
179
Now, so you would do, like, say if you were, um.
180
So you do how many of each of these?
181
Like, you do how many of each you do to add up a thousand?
182
You wouldn't do a thousand each.
183
No, not a thousand each.
184
I do like a hundred.
185
A hundred, yeah.
186
In one time, or you take breaks, like 25?
187
I do it all together.
188
Uh-huh.
189
Mm-hm.
190
Spider.
191
Oh.
192
Kidding.
193
I'm just kidding.
194
There.
195
Man, oh, man.
196
That's cool.
197
That is cool.
198
Wait, hold on.
199
How do you do that?
200
Oh, I hate when they don't come out again after I do one.
201
How come yours did and mine didn't?
202
I don't know.
203
Maybe I'm not meant to smoke.
204
Yeah, you shouldn't.
205
No one should.
206
This is just a joke.
207
No one smokes.
208
OK.
209
We'll fix it for you.
210
We'll fix it.
211
All right, we're going to take a break, and then we're going to do push-ups.
212
We'll be right back with the industry.
213
All right, well, that's good.
214
I'm going to do those every single day, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to look just like you.
215
So now when do you start your tour?
216
March 2nd in San Diego.
217
In San Diego.
218
Mm-hm.
219
And who's on tour with you?
220
Who are you going on tour with?
221
Cleese is opening up for me.
222
Mm-hm.
223
Her milkshake is pretty good, I understand.
224
Awesome.
225
She's amazing.
226
So and now you start in San Diego, you said?
227
Mm-hm.
228
And then you end up, how long?
229
You're going to do that for a year?
230
For like nine months.
231
Wow.
232
Yeah.
233
So your life is basically rehearsal and studio and promotion and touring, and it just starts all over again.
234
Yeah.
235
Wow.
236
And then you're doing a showtime.
237
You're doing a live special in Miami?
238
Yeah.
239
Is that scary to do a live special?
240
No. I mean, you get nervous beforehand, but I'm really excited about the show because I'm getting a bunch of different new collaborations, hopefully, to come in and do it,
241
to spice it up a little bit, make it cool.
242
So I'm excited.
243
Spice it up.
244
Spice it up a little bit.
245
That's what you need, because you're so bland, you know?
246
Yeah, that's good.
247
What can you possibly spice up?
248
What are you talking about?
249
Well, I like spice up the show just to make it more interesting and to, you know.
250
It's pretty interesting, I think.
251
But hey, listen, I'm just looking at all your bling you got going on there.
252
Yeah.
253
That's a lot of bling.
254
Yeah, yeah.
255
This is my favorite right here.
256
It's a pink diamond.
257
I got this for Christmas.
258
That's gorgeous.
259
Who gave you that?
260
My mom gave it to me.
261
That's beautiful.
262
Well, thank you.
263
And then this is, is that like a dragonfly or something?
264
Actually, I don't know what this is.
265
I think it is.
266
I think it's cool though.
267
It's really cool.
268
It's just like, I don't know, I could get in a fight with this and really hurt somebody.
269
No, I know.
270
That looks like a weapon sort of.
271
I thought it was actually connected with the other one.
272
Isn't that cool?
273
And what's What's this one on your engagement finger?
274
This is a fake ring.
275
It's just for fun.
276
Uh-huh.
277
Yeah.
278
Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
279
Hey, listen, I understand that you promised that everybody in your group that when you go on tour, you would do something for them that you have yet to do.
280
So I thought I would help you out with it.
281
OK.
282
And so we got you a little gift to take on tour with you.
283
Oh.
284
There it is right there. Are you good?
285
You want to shoot some wood?
286
Yeah.
287
Are you good?
288
I'm OK.
289
Oh, I'm excited.
290
I'm really bad at this.
291
You try one.
292
I really am so bad.
293
I'm so excited.
294
Thank you.
295
You're welcome.
296
OK.
297
Just aim for my face.
298
All righty.
299
Oh, I sucked.
300
OK, wait.
301
Hold on.
302
All right, you go.
303
No, you go.
304
No, well, listen.
305
I'm really bad.
306
See?
307
I'm good.
308
Go ahead.
309
OK.
310
I just am so bad.
311
Just.
312
Can you do a layup?
313
No. Go.
314
Go ahead.
315
And those two, you're going to do a layup?
316
I'm going to try.
317
All right.
318
All right.
319
Again.
320
We're going to try it this way.
321
Try it again.
322
OK.
323
Here we go.
324
Wait, one more.
325
One more.
326
And it goes out.
327
OK.
328
Yeah.
329
Don't make it look like you got it on your first time.
330
OK, cool.
331
I'm really bad.
332
I'm telling you, I can't play better.
333
Go ahead.
334
This is really sad.
335
Oh my god.
336
Yeah.
337
You're done.
338
I'm sad.
339
I'm gonna get better.
340
Dang.
341
See, it's good to have these guys.
342
Watch out.
343
All right.
344
All righty.
345
Well, you're gonna get better because you'll have this every day.
346
Nice!

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
