00:00 Hey, I'm Jessica Lynn and this is Behind the Photo with Billboard.

00:03 This picture was taken in Rack Studios in North London where I've recorded a lot of this album.

00:16 I remember it quite specifically, I wrote the intro to the album and this was a moment where

00:22 I was obviously listening to the record back and my friend Jolene, who is my creative director,

00:28 thought let's take a nice little snap. This is a really beautiful moment because there was a

00:32 few tears actually that day. This picture is me on stage last year at Radio 1. This was quite a

00:40 special moment for me because I had not been on stage for I would say three to four years. It'd

00:48 been a minute. It was actually a really big relief being on stage and everyone's reaction.

00:53 And this moment captures it all. This is a picture of me at Wembley Stadium with the Spice Girls and

01:00 this was just before our last show. This was one of the most surreal moments of my life. The Spice

01:06 Girls was the first gig I ever went to at Wembley Arena as a kid. My manager came up to me, he was

01:12 like, "The Spice Girls are getting back together and doing a tour and they want you to go on tour

01:16 with them." And I was like, "Shut up." And he was like, "Yeah, like do you want to do it?" And I

01:21 was like, "Is this real?" Fast forward, it was real. I went on the tour with the Spice Girls

01:25 and it was one of the most insane moments and probably one of the biggest highlights of my

01:30 career. And I will never forget walking out into that stadium for the first time and their show

01:37 starting and I actually felt like a little kid. So that was a moment I will never forget. This is

01:42 me pouting with my new merch hat on that says, "I take you for breakfast." And that is a lyric

01:48 from my new single, "Enough." "Enough" is a really important song for this record. It was the first

01:57 song that I wrote that I decided was going to be on the album. It kind of set me up for the

02:02 messaging of this record and when we were announcing the album, the only song that made sense to kind

02:07 of release with that moment was this song because it kind of summarizes the journey that I've been

02:12 on and where I'm at now. And it's crazy because the song's kind of evolved for me in its meaning

02:16 over the years. When I listen to it now, it's like a really nice kind of reassuring message

02:21 that I am enough.
