LOS ANGELES — Katseye expressed support for members Sophia and Manon during an appearance on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Thursday, Aug. 13, a day before the girl group releases its third EP, “Wild.”
Host Jimmy Fallon noted that the group looked different from its previous appearance in February as Sophia and Manon are currently taking breaks. He also praised the remaining members for continuing to support them.
“We have nothing but so much love and support for Sophia and Manon, and it’s beautiful to see how the Eyekons (Katseye’s fandom name) give them so much support and also continue to support us as we’re here,” member Lara said.
Fallon also introduced “Wild,” which will be released Friday, Aug. 14, and the documentary “Katseye: Wild Hearts,” which opened in theaters this week.
He highlighted the group’s achievements over the past year, including an American Music Award win, a Grammy nomination and a performance at Coachella.
The members described “Wild” with words such as “maturity” and “growing up.”
Lara, who wrote “Unloveu” for the EP’s special edition, said writing a song for Katseye had been her biggest goal for years.
Daniela described the choreography for the title track “Hootie Frutti” as “stamina killing,” while Lara joked that the tight formation for the pre-release single “Animal” made it a “miracle” that the members had not collided onstage.
The group also recalled meeting “Animal” co-writer Ed Sheeran at the NRJ Awards in France, where he told them he had a song for the group.
Katseye will begin its “Wildworld” arena tour in September. Organizers said tickets sold out within 48 hours.
