However, not so many people were impressed, as there were some who noticed how his appearance had changed and questioned if he was okay.
"Some time in the end, some time in the future, trying to pretend I think I'm just on one side, we both come alive, Celine with the girlfriend wish he did. Because I know why. I know how. Oh my. This is a freestyle, oh my God. I'm doing it so nicely you'd think I wrote it down. Give me words, I swear, I don't know what I'm saying, but I am saying the truth," he said.
He continued to read the comments from fans and used what they were saying to create some wordplay.
At one point, he blurted out an emotional stanza which insinuated that he was not comfortable being in front of the screen, and it took him time and courage to get over that fear.
He said:
"We woke up on a roll. I must say I'm feeling a little bit more comfortable on the cameras, though it's been a long while, so I won't lie it was tough trying to pretend like i'm fine on the screen that ain't right, it ain't right. I'd rather not fake it, I'd rather be fine, summer. Nice and sunny."
When asked about his spirituality, Almasi noted that everything was fine and that he was still at it.
