Drew Afualo gives flowers to Victoria Monét and she shares how Beyoncé, Aaliyah and more have inspired her music at Billboard Women in Music 2025.

Drew Afualo:

Hello everyone. I’m here with the beautiful, stunning, gorgeous Victoria Monét. How are you feeling tonight? 

Victoria Monét:

Great. How are you? 

Oh, I’m better now that you’re here. 

You look beautiful!

Oh my god, thank you Victoria Monét, I appreciate it. 

I love this color on you.

Oh my gosh, thank you. You look stunning. You look fab. How do you feel being here at Billboard Women in Music?

I’m very excited. I love running into the girls, supporting the girls, making new connections. It kind of feels like a family reunion, in a way because you just rekindle certain relationships. Maybe haven’t seen- I just saw someone I haven’t seen in like, two years. 

Oh my gosh, crazy.

Maybe even actually pre-COVID because until you know what time it is since then. But like, I love being here, and I love seeing women get their flowers. 

That’s beautiful. OK, so you are absolutely glowing tonight. Can we get your secret? What are you wearing that’s making your skin look and smell this incredible?

Oh you want Victoria’s Secret. I’m just kidding, no, but I really am obsessed with Brazilian Bum Bum Cream by Sol de Janeiro. So that goes on first, top it off with Cheirosa 62 Mist, and you’re smelling good all night, babe. 

Also I match it. 

I know, right? 

The yellow. 

Yeah, you look like the Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream right now. 

Keep watching for more!
