Jason Derulo brought energy to the Mercedes-Benz Interview Lounge at Y100’s Jingle Ball, presented by Capital One. In a lively conversation with Sami and Claudia, the singer opened up about his Miami roots, family traditions, and his exciting plans for the future.
Returning to Miami for the holidays was a special moment for Jason, especially with his large family in attendance. With generations coming together—including his young son—it was clear how much family means to him. His pride in having them present added an extra layer of excitement to his performance.
When it comes to the holidays, Jason’s favorite part is all about the food. As someone of Haitian descent, he loves dishes like griyo (fried pork), oxtail, and lasagna. While holiday desserts aren’t his favorite, he does enjoy festive drinks.
Jason also shared a fun parenting strategy for getting his son to join TikTok dances. By playfully challenging him, Jason turns dance steps into catchy songs that his son can easily follow—a true blend of parenting and creativity.
Looking ahead to 2025, Jason revealed plans to focus more on acting. While music remains a key part of his career, he’s ready to dive into film projects and expand his creative horizons.
