Jason Derulo, a popular singer, was spotted in New York City wearing a street style outfit on April 10. He was approached by TikToker Kate Mackz, known for stopping people on the street and challenging them to run a mile. Mackz asked Derulo how many miles he was running that day, to which he replied that he wasn’t planning on running any miles. Despite this, Mackz offered to buy him any pair of sneakers if he ran a mile with her, to which Derulo agreed after getting approval from his bodyguards.
The singer, wearing leather pants, a grey crew neck sweater, and $1,050 Dior sneakers, joined Mackz for a jog through Manhattan.

Derulo expressed his gratitude for being able to live his dream as a generational celebrity, stating that he feels blessed to have the opportunity to do what he loves for so long.
Derulo reflected on his career and shared that he has had many ‘pinch yourself moments’ throughout his journey in the music industry. He reminisced about his first song reaching number one and the hustle and determination it took to continue creating music. Despite the challenges, he emphasized the importance of enjoying the process and having a good time, rather than constantly focusing on the next goal. Fans of Derulo commented on the video, particularly noting his bold fashion choices such as the leather pants that he was wearing during the jog.
The singer, who is in NYC to promote his new song with Michael Bublé titled “Spicy Margarita,” has a penchant for bold and empowering fashion styles, as previously mentioned in interviews. Derulo’s outing in street style attire garnered attention from fans and spectators, showcasing his ability to connect with fans while maintaining a unique sense of style.
