“Girls5eva is back for a third season, did you know — how great was it to get a third season after feeling like the show was over?” Bareilles, 44, asked her castmates.
“After feeling rejected?” joked Philipps, 44.
“Sweet, sweet relief, sweet relief,” added Goldsberry, 53. “It was like a happy hallelujah dance, but I actually never thought for a minute that we wouldn’t come back.”
“Same,” said Pell, 60, and Philipps in agreement.
“That shows how much confidence I had,” said the Hamilton: the musical alum. “In you ladies, that’s how much trust I have.”
“It’s not the same for me,” said Bareilles, the realist of the group, seemingly on and off the show.

As for a potential Season 4 and which pop stars they want to join, the stars say they have a few names in mind.
“I would say I would love Harry Styles but we’ve kind of covered that this season,” Pell said, clarifying that this doesn’t mean he’ll make an appearance on the series. “Not Harry Styles, but something really fun.”
“I mean, you know, I love Brandi Carlile” continued Pell.
“We should hire her for season four,” said Philipps, who also dropped Usher’s name into the conversation.
