Though the "Someone Like You" singer said that she "might get in trouble for playing it" before the song started, the unauthorised peek of her upcoming album's lead single delighted fans.
"There ain't no gold in this river / that I've been washing my hands in forever / I know there is hope in these waters / but I can't bring myself to swim when I am drowning in this silence / Baby, let me in," she sings in the "Easy on Me" clip.
After playing the snippet, the singer shared that her phone was already blowing up. "Oop me phones already buzzing, I’m gonna get in trouble," she said.

She also shared that she supports #FreeBritney, saying that she has met Spears a couple of times and is "so happy for her."
When asked what the upcoming album will be about during the Live, the pop star said, "Divorce, babe, divorce," per People.
