[Fayrouz] Hi, I'm Fayrouz Gadalla,

(static)

I'm 20 years old, and I'm from New Jersey

But my parents are from Egypt and I was actually born there.

(upbeat music)

I started getting into sports and adventures

mainly because of my brothers.

They were always out there.

They were always doing sports

and it was just challenging me.

♪ Do you still have love for me ♪

♪ Do you still have love for me ♪

When I asked to play a sport, guys would be a little

taken aback since I'm a tiny girl wearing a scarf,

but once I start playing, they're like,

oh wait, she knows what she's doing.

♪ Do you still have love for me ♪

♪ Cause I've been falling falling falling ♪

I just wanna try everything.
