\n\tIt may be winter for the rest of us, but it\u2019s \u201cEurosummer<\/a>\u201d at The Jennifer Hudson Show \u2014 all thanks to Zara Larsson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Swedish pop star made her debut on the daytime talk show Tuesday (Feb. 24) when Larsson sat down with Hudson to talk Grammys, achieving childhood dreams, and her latest album Midnight Sun.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter the interview, Larsson taught Hudson and the live studio audience the viral<\/a> dance to her 2017 song \u201cLush Life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cZara, I can\u2019t dance!\u201d Hudson exclaimed as she struggles to keep up with Larsson\u2019s moves.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe wholesome dancing moment was foreshadowed earlier when staffers sang a remixed version of \u201cLush Life\u201d to Larsson as she danced down the show\u2019s viral \u201cSpirit Tunnel.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe got Zara Larsson at J-Hud, so we gotta show her all the love,\u201d the team sang. \u201cWe love her album Midnight Sun, and \u2018Lush Life\u2019 is our No. 1.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThough \u201cLush Life\u201d is nearly a decade old, the accompanying dance rose in popularity at the end of last year after a clip of Larsson inviting a fan onstage<\/a> to perform the routine with her went viral. \u201cShe joined my dancers. She ate us up,\u201d Larsson explains in her interview with Hudson.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs a result, \u201cLush Life\u201d was reintroduced to the Billboard Hot 100<\/a>, surpassing its original peak of No. 75 and hitting No. 36 earlier this month.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLush Life\u201d is just one example of Larsson\u2019s recent success<\/a>. Alongside the 2017 track, she landed two other spots on the Hot 100 with \u201cStateside\u201d (alongside PinkPantheress, No. 30) and \u201cMidnight Sun\u201d (No. 69) this month. \u201cMidnight Sun\u201d also scored Larsson her first Grammy nod, a nomination for best dance pop recording at this year\u2019s awards.<\/p>\n

\n\tLarsson\u2019s ascent shows no sign of slowing down: On Tuesday (Feb. 24) Billboard announced<\/a> that she will receive the Breakthrough Award at this year\u2019s Billboard Women in Music Awards.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Feb. 28, Larsson will embark on the sold-out<\/a> North American leg of the Midnight Sun Tour with a stop in Portland, Oregon.<\/p>\n
