Zara also talked about the females who have made a big impact on her, two of those people being her mother and her manager, but she also talked about her idol, Beyoncé. She said, "I just feel like she is such a strong woman. She's been putting in the work and you can see that she is not letting anything slide without the Beyoncé approval. It's very inspiring to see how she really advocates for, for women, for black women in particular. Like what she did with Lemonade and Black Is King. It's bigger than the charts. It's bigger than the industry. It's about the culture and it's about creating a legacy. And I just thought she's just so powerful. Not only is she extremely talented in what she's doing, but the way she creates room for others. We all know she's the first lady of music. Like, I'm not unique saying this."

Larsson added, "I met her once and it was an incredible experience. It was after her show on the 'Mrs. Carter' world tour, it was in Stockholm. And she came here. I did meet her backstage after the concert, after I'd been crying my eyes out for the whole show. And, it's weird. It's so weird to see someone that you looked up to for that long period of time, and you're like, wait, she's actually real. She is a real person."

Zara is releasing her sophomore album Poster Girl on March 5th, which follows 2017's So Good. The new album showcases twelve new songs, including previously-released tracks like "Love Me Land," "Wow" and "Talk About Love" featuring Young Thug.
