“I’m excited for [my] new song to come out, but I’m kinda brought back to a time when it was really, really difficult in my life,” Puth, 30 said in a Wednesday March 23, TikTok YouTube video, crying. It just rears its ugly heads every time I hear it.
New Jersey native, John Doe, announced his plans to release “That’s Hilarious,” which was inspired by his 2019 breakup as his next single in April.
Puth stated Wednesday that he had never told anyone what happened. He described the year as the “ff-king worst” year of his life. I just wanted to get it out of my system and start over with people who are better than me. This is my most difficult song, and I want you to hear it. Thank you.
Although the “Attention” singer did not mention who the song was inspired by, he did date Charlotte Lawrence early in 2019. He tweets that he was “single now” by September.
For her part, the 21-year-old “God Must be Doing Cocaine” singer told Vanity Fair one year later that she was in love with Puth but not anymore.
“I don’t regret any ex-boyfriends.” Lawrence said that he had opened his eyes to a new side of music in February 2020. He also noted that the two men worked well together during their turbulent relationship.

Puth, who was previously connected to Selena Gomez, Halston Sage and Bella Thorne, exclusively spoke to Us Weekly about writing about past relationships.
“It’s all my fault that fans are interested in my love life. He told us in February that he would prefer to inspire them — if they are musicians, maybe they want the same thing.” “Put some real life feelings on top with melody.”
The “Light Switch” singer spoke glowingly about fans’ interest in his personal life, and their support. He also teased the release of his next album, full of vulnerable melodies.
Puth stated to Us, “I’m being the authenticest I’ve ever felt and sonically as good,” “I made this record to be consistent. I was willing to push the boundaries. I wanted to push things at different tempos and to hear sounds that no one else has used. It’s Charlie.
