How Jordin Sparks' Split With Jason Derulo Influenced Her Album-- Plus, Would She Ever Appear on The Bachelorette?

Jordin Sparks fans, rejoice: The 25-year-
old singer has dropped a new single!
On Tuesday, the American Idol winner
released her latest song "Double Tap"
featuring 2 Chainz, and just hours after
the super-catchy tune debuted on iTunes
the brunette stunner stopped by the E!
News studio to chat about her
forthcoming album, Right Here, Right
Now. She shared how her past (and very
public breakup) with ex Jason Derulo
influenced her studio sessions and even
revealed whether she would ever want to
appear on The Bachelorette!
"The song 'Double Tap' is definitely
inspired by Instagram and the times right
now," she shared. "So you double tap to
'like' a picture, so there are a couple of
ways you could take it. For me, in the
song, I take it as a girl knowing that
there's a guy looking at her pictures, but
he won't like them because he doesn't
want her to know. And she's like 'I bet
you're not going to double tap that
picture.'"

She added with a smile, "So it's all about
that, 'Oh well, you know I'm cute kind of
thing.'"
As for why she decided to feature 2
Chainz on the song? "Because he's just
crazy enough to do it," she shared.

"His
flow and everything. He was the only
person I could think of."
Sparks' forthcoming album is due out in
mid-May and during her chat with E! News
(be sure to tune in tonight for lots of
scoop!), she shared that there are "a
couple" of songs about ex Jason Derulo,
from whom she split in September after
about three years of dating.

Asked how her public breakup influenced
the recording process, she candidly
replied, "Everybody...takes experiences
from their personal life and puts it in
there because that's how you get the
emotion...that's how that one fan that is
laying in her room puts on your record
and she cries with you because she feels it
with you...I've always drawn from
personal experiences to sing songs."

She continued, noting that she has a new
perspective on heartbreak, which will be
reflected in her music, now that she is
older.
"When I was 17 and I put out my first
record, I had never been in love like that
before.

So doing a song like "No Air," I
had to imagine what it would feel like to
lose somebody that I loved that
much...now, I know what it feels like to
feel like I can't get out of bed in the
morning because it hurts so bad or feel
like I can't breathe, but I also know the
other side.

Like, I know what those
butterflies feel like...so I think it's pretty
natural to take personal experiences and
put them into your music."
Sparks, who was sweet as can be, also
gushed over her fans, calling them "so
great and so patient and supportive" in
addition to revealing a few album

But we couldn't let Jordin leave without
hearing her thoughts on the Bachelor:
Women Tell All and asking the single star
whether she would ever want to be The
Bachelorette.

"Oh my God, no...I would not be OK with
20 guys expecting to come and try and
kiss me!" she exclaimed before later
adding, "My cousin actually would
probably enjoy it if I did the Bachelorette
because she's obsessed."
So, what's her dating style then (since a
reality competition clearly isn't her cup of
tea)? Press play to find out!
