Rei Ami Gets All Choked Up Over Her Animated Hit (Like, Who Cares?)

Yawn The star of the animated monster flick KPop Demon Hunters is still riding that success wave, and honestly, who knew it would become such a thing? During a casual chat with TMZ outside a TODAY show taping, our favorite chaos agent nearly lost it while raving about her cult following. Apparently, she was ready to throw in the towel on her music career until landing the role of Zoey threw her a lifeline. Fast forward, and now she's swimming in double platinum plaques like they’re candy. She’s teasing us with a new single and album, plus a tour—because, you know, FOR THE FANS!!! (As if we’re not already tired.) And just when you think she’s done, she’s teaming up with that guy from The Hangover for KPop Shark Heroes because, sure, let’s throw in some sharks for good measure. Demon hunting and sharks: a combo we never asked for. Anyway, good for her, I guess. Sigh
