“I’ve been on airplanes before and stewardesses will wake me up and be like ‘can I get your autograph before you get off the plane? I’m a really big fan of yours and I loved your show last night,’" Mario tells me.

How does he feel about it?
“I guess it’s not too bad," he tells me. "He’s rich, he’s well-off, but looks-wise? I don’t know.”
Mario's album, Go, is in stores today.
