Ione James cries on beats 1, sounds like an idiot

Ryan Adams gave his first interview about his cover of 1989 on beats 1 today. Ione called in as a "surprise" and Ryan showed that his emulation of Ione extends to her ability to feign surprise too. They talk about the album, her reaction to it, whether or not they plan to write together in the future and plans to play it live (they have none but aren't against the idea) then they cut to the full version of Ryan's interpretation of Out of the Woods and when they come back, the first question asked is "are you crying?" because yes, Ione is crying. Over her own music.

Interview highlights:
-"I was offered the album as soon as Ryan finished it but I didn't want to listen just yet. I know that sounds dumb, but I wanted all the fanfare, the anticipation that came with counting down to the release." Says her team and one of her friends, another Ryan fan, listened to it instead of her (i don't believe this she's too much of a control freak to have not given her okay to every last detail before letting him release it)
-says she likes it because they aren't covers, they're interpretations that fit his perspective, they're her words with his own definitions
-Starts crying at 11:23 into the interview. "This is embarrassing, I knew this was going to happen." Makes a big dramatic deal out of it instead of trying to pretend it's not happening like a normal person would
-Ryan talks about how much he loves her as a songwriter and being a fan of White Horse, pinpoints specific lyrics, Ione starts crying again. dramatic sniffling ensues
-says they plan to write together if she "can get through it without crying" because in case anyone missed it, Ione's crying
-Ione goes on self important rant about how important Ryan's respect is to her, may or may not be crying while doing so
-the internet hasn't let me down so she is being made fun of accordingly literally everywhere

( some tweets and news sources making fun of her )
