During a recent event where the “Made You Look” singer-songwriter was signing copies of her new albumTakin' It Backat a Barnes and Noble location, an attendee asked Trainor to give a shout-out to her “cousins” — before naming them as Jennie, Lisa, Rosé and Jisoo, the names of Blackpink’s members.

After the 28-year-old musician obliged the request, the fan provided her with names to mention: “It’s Jennie, Lisa, Rosé and Jisoo.”

Oblivious to the fact that the names belong to the “Pink Venom” girl group members, Trainor verbally ensured the camera was rolling before attempting to greet the so-called cousins: “Jennie, Lisa, Rosé and… Joo-soo?”

The TikTok user repeated Jisoo’s name to correct Trainor, who then smiled ear-to-ear and said, “Hi! Thanks for not coming, but it’s OK. I love you anyways! Yay!”

Underneath the video, posted alongside the caption “Thank you for saying hi to my cousins,” Trainor left a comment — seemingly taking the joke in stride. “IM SO JET LAGGED HAHAHAHA HOW COULD U DO THIS TO MEEEE,” wrote the Grammy winner. “Love u anyways.”

Ahead of the Oct. 21 release ofTakin' It Back, Trainor spoke to PEOPLE how different her life is now compared to when she first made it big in the music scene back in 2014. “I’m a mom now, and I’ve been through some more stuff,” said the performer, who shares 20-month-old sonRileywith husbandDaryl Sabara.

“It’s almost been 10 years since my first album — which Jesus,” she continued with a laugh. “So I just feel like my music is elevated, and my music videos are also elevated.”

To commemorate the release of her new album, Trainor teamed up with popular mobile game Candy Crush Saga to release a music video for her track “Made You Look.”

“I knew for this music video that I wanted it to be bright, fun colors. That’s my thing, always,” Trainor tells PEOPLE. “But I wanted this to feel like [an] elevated [version of ‘All About That] Bass,’ more saturated.”
