Lilly Singh on Her New Movie Doin’ It, Investing in Angel City & Supporting Women
Lilly Singh joins this week’s episode of BFFR to talk a little bit of everything — from her brand-new feature film Doin’ It to her deep love for supporting girls and women, and her very relatable “no work before 10 a.m.” rule.
She opens up about the journey of writing, producing, and starring in her first-ever feature film, how her family reacted to the steamy scenes in the sex comedy, and the importance of producing and representation behind the camera. She also shares why she became an investor in Angel City FC, the importance of showing up for women, and why it’s the most welcoming, inclusive environment she’s ever been part of.
Lilly and Ali also dive into her evolution from YouTube’s Superwoman to multi-hyphenate creative powerhouse. Stick around for the real talk on flaky LA friends, dating as a public figure, and the calendar that keeps her social life somewhat organized.

Savy King Shares Health Update, Angel City Comeback & Unreleased BFFR Interview
Savy King is officially back with Angel City. After her medical emergency earlier this season, Savy shares an update with Ali Riley about her recovery journey, returning to training, and how grateful she is to be back with her teammates.
From there, we’re rolling out a never-before-released interview we filmed with Savy back in May. Ali and Syd sit down with the rising star to talk about her life growing up in Southern California, the unique bond she shares with her twin brother, and the love and support she’s always received from her moms. Savy talks about being flag football standout, what it means to represent Angel City back home where it all began, and her experiences with the U.S. National Team. The conversation takes a fun turn as the girls laugh about their very first social media accounts — and Ali and Syd hilariously try to explain dial-up internet to Savy.
