"They were like 'we're doing this movie called African Cats and here's the song, it's by Ryan Tedder,' Jordin recalls of being approached to record The World I Knew. "I literally downloaded the song and I probably got through the first chorus and I was like 'I want to do it,'" she added enthusiastically.

Jordin revealed that she could relate to the inspirational tune on a personal level. "I've always been very independent but I'm learning to you know, stand on my own two feet more and make decisions and really stand my ground," she said.
The talented beauty just recently turned the big 2-1 but we were very impressed with how sweet, mature and professional she was on set! Jordin even dined with the entire crew during their short lunch break while sporting an oversized sports tee and comfortable shorts. How much more do you adore her after hearing that!?
