5
Who is the most chronically online member of the group?
6
Ooh!
7
Ooh! Is it me?
8
I'm like pretty chronically online when it comes to like the meme of it all.
9
The lore.
10
The lore and like the TikToks and whatever.
11
I think Dani's like more chronically online when it comes to like just being on her phone.
12
I don't really know what she does.
13
I just look at selfies.
14
Yeah, I just look at myself.
15
where I was going through my pop culture Instagram account, and one of the posts were like, "These two celebrities being spotted together." And these are two celebrities that we're actually friends with.
16
And I accidentally liked the post on my main Instagram account.
17
So people were like, "Oh my God, Megan confirmed the relationship." But I was like, I didn't even mean to.
18
I was just so interested.
19
I was like, "What the hell's happening?" That was not a confirmation.
20
What's the most embarrassing moment you've had while performing?
21
Oh my god!
22
I choose the person who does have an embarrassing moment. But watch.
23
Oh!
24
Oh!
25
Where are you going?
26
Wait, my heart is racing.
27
Me too.
28
What is your issue?
29
What is your issue?
30
What did I do to you?
31
I have two that popped into my head.
32
Remember Wango Tango when I did Gnarly?
33
Oh my god!
34
They compare me to the flip -flop.
35
The flip -flop?
36
And then there's another one.
37
We were in...
38
Guys, we were in Brazil.
39
I wasn't warm and I tried to go higher and my voice cracked.
40
And the fans were defending me with the shield of armor.
41
They were literally like, "No, you don't understand vocal technique.
42
That was a vocal flip.
43
That was a Filipino." Yeah, they were like, "It's like a traditional." I was like, "You guys know my voice is cracked, actually." fighting people that were like, her voice.
44
No, no, no. They were like, she's fighting the tune.
45
It's a tune's fault.
46
It's a tune.
47
It's the mic.
48
It's the sound.
49
It's the team.
50
It's not her.
51
It could never be my dear Sophia.
52
Could never be my powerful leader Sophia.
53
Also, like, we've all had our share of like a little vocal slip up.
54
Like, it happens.
55
Okay.
56
Like, people have no grace.
57
Rank the cat's eye choreography from favorite to least.
58
Internet girl, gnarly, or better in denim.
59
Ooh!
60
Our favorite, I think, would be The Gap, then Gnarly, then Internet Girl.
61
I agree.
62
I agree.
63
I agree.
64
But The Gnarly Dance Break is really strong too.
65
But he didn't say Dance Break.
66
Yeah, he didn't say Dance Break.
67
That's true.
68
That's true.
69
Gap is like the most iconic, I think.
70
I think working with the choreographer was awesome.
71
Like, he's so, so talented.
72
And all the dancers with us.
73
All the dancers.
74
We were friends with some of the dancers too.
75
So it was like one whole big reunion and everyone is just like so creative.
76
It was a very comfortable environment.
77
Who cried the least during eliminations on Popstar Academy?
78
The least? So sweet.
79
You have been chosen.
80
I feel like I'm gonna say Yoon Shay, 'cause she doesn't cry that much.
81
No, but she did cry during the eliminations, though.
82
I did cry, but I think I...
83
The least.
84
I think out of all of us, Yoon Shay probably cried the least.
85
a tough so yeah i think it was always like devastating
86
so there was never a moment where i was like okay like it's fine like it always sucked
87
but i think at some point we got more used to
88
it like towards the end it was like okay this isn't as much of a shock
89
so i'm not like on the floor crying
90
but i'm still crying yeah also like during the elimination i was like it didn't
91
cries like when they would hug us goodbye a voice on a tv screen would be like you won't be continuing.
92
Like it was it was really really crazy.
93
What was the hardest part of the transition from competitors to group members? So scary.
94
Is that me?
95
I feel like even though we were all competing with each other, we also wanted each other to win.
96
In the back of our minds, all of us about 20 girls were like one group already but yeah i think
97
the bond was always there
98
and it was just about finding our artistry as catside as
99
the group rather than the bond it was just always there the sisterhood has always been there it's really cool
100
that we were able to be a kind of chosen family for a situation
101
that was chosen for us it's easier to bond
102
when you have a similar upbringing similar cultures similar beliefs all those things
103
but to have a situation where you took these girls from all over the world and put them into one group
104
and have them have the same shared goal, have to make decisions, come to a consensus every time.
105
It's very complicated and complex, but we're making it work.
106
If you switch horoscopes with the person next to you, would you be happy?
107
Oh, wait.
108
What are you?
109
Capical?
110
Tadgiosmorphia.
111
Cancer.
112
I can tell you what.
113
I can tell you what.
114
Wait, let's see.
115
Oh, you can.
116
This is not my question because I really don't know when.
117
- The basis of what a Scorpio is a Capricorn.
118
- Well, okay, Scorpio is very determined, very intense, very emotional.
119
People say that Scorpio is really mysterious.
120
That's typical what people say.
121
And then Capricorn is very, very, very hardworking, very organized.
122
- Very determined, very motherly, fatherly, very, very hardworking.
123
If I have a goal, I have to complete it.
124
- Yes.
125
- And then she's more like fiery, emotional, like passion.
126
And I very much just like, gotta get it done.
127
- Yeah, it's just basically, who do I wanna be?
128
- I love Scorpio, I love - - Capricorn.
129
- Capricorn.
130
- I love all the - - Signs.
131
- Signs.
132
- And I like myself too.
133
- Okay, she's PR trained.
134
- Yeah, she's PR trained.
135
- What's the most money you spent on self -care?
136
- Oh, self -care.
137
I mean, I think retail there.
138
Well, Wally will choose.
139
- I'm gonna do self -care.
140
- Oh!
141
I actually don't go that crazy on self -care.
142
I spend a lot of money at Sephora for makeup.
143
- That counts.
144
- Because a Sephora haul, like when you go shopping, you're dropping a bag.
145
Especially if you want to get foundation, concealer, contour, everything, brushes, lashes.
146
- Makeup is expensive.
147
- It's $1 ,000.
148
- It's so expensive.
149
- I spent on a spa day.
150
- On a spa day?
151
- I would go crazy on a spa day.
152
I'll spend hundreds of dollars on a spa day with all the treatments, the massage.
153
Give me those hot stones.
154
- What was the-- - Give me those sauna access.
155
- What was the-- - What was the massage that we got?
156
- The static drainage.
157
- The static drainage.
158
- Wow, you guys.
159
- That was so nice.
160
- Wait, I need to get that.
161
- Yeah, I've sold it in childhood.
162
- Yeah, I wanna like, I wanna be drained.
163
- It was great.
164
- Has there ever been a cat's eye performance where you liked another member's outfit more than your own?
165
No, that's not true.
166
That's not true.
167
Yeah.
168
Oh, it's on Danny.
169
Oh, you are on the hot seat.
170
Most of the time I actually do enjoy my outfit the most,
171
but there's been a lot of shoots where I liked another girl's outfit more than my own.
172
Honestly, Coachella, I liked my outfit the least out of everyone's.
173
But I think that was just like the pattern.
174
It wasn't my like taste.
175
But it was cute.
176
It was like a cute outfit.
177
It was just like not me.
178
That's just what I thought. But...
179
Thanks.
180
Tell us an insecurity of yours that your fans will be shocked to know.
181
Oh, that's a good one.
182
Do you need to hold my hand?
183
Yeah.
184
I'm coming out.
185
Oh my god, are we trying to get deep right now?
186
I feel like I'm such an awkward person a lot of the times, and I don't really know how to be cat's eye Megan other than Megan Megan.
187
There's times where I'm kind of trying to still figure that out.
188
Not that I want to be a completely different person.
189
I want to be Megan as cat's eye Megan, but I think finding that bridge and that balance is a little bit hard,
190
especially being
191
in the public eye and so many eyes on you, it gets a little bit hard to distinguish that line, I guess.
192
I'm genuinely an actual 20 -year -old girl.
193
I already know what it is.
194
How emotional I get about certain things.
195
I was actually going to say the opposite.
196
No, that's what I'm saying.
197
Oh, like how emotional.
198
I feel like how emotional I get.
199
It's like my level.
200
My level of emotions.
201
Like you don't get emotional.
202
I feel like it's unpredictable but also predictable.
203
But it's not a lot.
204
It can easily read as selfish, judgmental and not empathetic.
205
To people that don't truly know me.
206
Yes, to people who don't know you.
207
To people that don't actually know me, it reads that way.
208
And it's also.
209
I also think maybe a bit of avoidance.
210
And also I'm a huge avoidant.
211
If I don't want to deal with something, I will literally just.. drop it
212
and then automatically like turn off my feelings for it
213
and it comes off as me not being emotional
214
and just like not caring as much or not thinking things are too deep just because I'm
215
afraid to open pandora's box and be like these are my emotions
216
but recently i just i'm getting better i'm getting better
217
because i've learned that the only way
218
that you can heal from being an avoidant is to acknowledge
219
and accept that there's something to heal from and
220
so i've been i have been getting better it's
221
so hard it's actually it's really really difficult
222
but for the past few months that's been my goal like i don't want to i i didn't know
223
that there was something that i had to heal from That's why I was being an avoidant.
224
And the girls have really been helping me, especially Lara.
225
Like she's been helping me so much and clocking me saying that certain things are immature and selfish.
226
It comes across that way.
227
Not that I am, but it comes across that way.
228
And like not between us, like with her.
229
personal situations or other situations and so
230
and i think it does bleed into the group dynamic as well it's been something
231
that i have been working on the past few months
232
and i think i'm getting a lot better yeah you're healing
233
who holds grudges the longest oh i stole your shirt mad
234
about it for like a week after like two weeks after it's like you're holding a grudge okay
235
I feel as though it's Dani.
236
Dani does hold a grudge.
237
Is this going to be a problem?
238
Is this a problem?
239
No, she already knew.
240
Yeah, she knows.
241
Okay, she knows.
242
You never know.
243
I literally looked at the camera like this.
244
I looked at Dani, I went, hmm.
245
Yeah.
246
No, no, no. Because when someone pisses me off, it lingers because like, I can't just brush that off because as a cancer, I think I just take those things.
247
She takes things very deeply.
248
Very deeply.
249
And that's beautiful.
250
Because sometimes, thank you.
251
Sometimes it is, a little deeper than what it needs to be.
252
- Needs to be, but I don't know.
253
That's just my reasoning.
254
- Yeah, no, no, no, no. I think your capacity for emotion is beautiful.
255
I think that it's amazing.
256
- Give me some.
257
Here, take it.
258
I have so much to offer.
259
- I think it's beautiful.
260
And I think it's something you should be proud of.
261
You do hold a grudge.
262
What's the most debated topic in the Cat's Eye group chat?
263
What do you guys think?
264
Order, yeah.
265
Low key, what's an order?
266
Or if we're going out tonight.
267
To push to rehearsal to a different day.
268
Yeah, I think we talk about our schedule and like when we're tired.
269
Guys, how do you feel today?
270
I couldn't wake up today.
271
And then we blame it on the weather.
272
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
273
today like we throw a lot of pity parties
274
because that's like our one place to throw a pity party yeah like we're the only people
275
that will understand if we complain that's the only place
276
that we can say that can say that stuff like there's only us
277
and yeah so it's like so comfortable like nobody's gonna snitch how do you deal with a gabriella oh oh
278
Keep going.
279
Oh.
280
Oh.
281
Truthfully, I am going to look at my partner.
282
Because I'm like, the f*?
283
Why are you entertaining the Gabriella?
284
Like, what even is that?
285
Like, it doesn't matter.
286
Like, I actually think it's flattering.
287
I think it's wonderful.
288
Like, everybody wants my person.
289
That's hot.
290
That's how it should be.
291
Like, that means I have a bad f*.
292
Like, that means I'm dating somebody hot.
293
Someone desirable.
294
And I love that.
295
The Gabrielle is only going to keep pestering if my partner is inviting it and entertaining it.
296
So I'm like, it's really on you.
297
I don't care about this random.
298
I care about you.
299
But then, If it really is a problem, like with the gabriella like i don't i don't know what
300
do you do like you just have to cut her off maybe like go up to her
301
and like give her like a little talk i would never i would do
302
that honestly i would so you would go up to her
303
and be like honestly that's such a way you're talking about man
304
and be like bye you are my man no no no
305
i would never i'd be like i would you up but that's
306
so not worth my time like i wouldn't even look at her i would never go up to another girl
307
and be - If it becomes like an ongoing issue,
308
like we've done everything, that is the last possible thing you're gonna do.
309
- We get a restraining order.
310
- This random is not worth my energy.
311
- What if it wasn't a random?
312
What if it was your friend?
313
- Well, I would cut off my friend and that would be that.
314
Like I wouldn't be like, "Don't touch my man." Like, do you know what I mean?
315
- I'd fight her.
316
I just fight her.
317
- I would never!
318
- I don't think I would do that.
319
- But that's not worth your...
320
- My avoidance comes in and I would just pretend she doesn't exist.
321
- Daniella, yeah.
322
- And that's so easy.
323
- Yeah, you wish.
324
Like, I'm not gonna go and fight you.
325
I have to go to work.
326
- If you're not going to go to work.
327
- If you're not going to go to work, you're not going to go to work.
328
- I would never.
329
- I would never.
330
- But that's not worth your...
331
- I would never.
332
- But that's not worth your...
333
- My avoidance comes in and I would just pretend she doesn't exist.
334
- Daniella, yeah.
335
- And that's so easy.
336
- Yeah, you wish.
337
Like, I'm not gonna go and fight you.
338
I have to go to work.
339
- Yeah, you wish.
340
Like, I'm not gonna go and fight you.
341
I have to go to work.
342
If your moms were in a K -pop group, who would be the leader?
343
- Oh, I'm so leader!
344
- Wait, that's a really good...
345
- Oh!
346
- That's such a good...
347
- Honestly, even though I'm the leader, it's not gonna be my mom.
348
- I think Auntie Sylvia.
349
- I think it's your mom.
350
- I think it might be Sophie.
351
- It's not gonna be my mom.
352
- Okay, well, you'd think it's Sophia's mom, but Sophia's saying no. - I don't think it's my mom.
353
- Maybe Megan's mom?
354
- I think Megan's mom.
355
- I think either Megan's mom or Laura's mom.
356
- No, no, no, no, no, trust me.
357
You guys know my mom.
358
- I would be Alara.
359
- My mom would be Alara, but she wouldn't be the Sophia.
360
Auntie Sylvia is the Sophie.
361
- My mom basically works for us.
362
- She's the anchor.
363
She's the anchor.
364
She knows more than I do about what I do.
365
Yeah, because she would wake everybody up in the morning and be like, get to rehearsal.
366
My mom would.
367
Yeah, she would do that.
368
You guys in line.
369
That's why we vibe.
370
I think having our family and especially our moms be so supportive has helped us get through this,
371
especially during the training and the part where we were competing.
372
That was really rough.
373
So I think having a good support system, especially your own mother,
374
is always like so like nice to have.
375
So thank you mommies for always being there for us.
376
We love you.
377
We literally couldn't have done it without you.

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
