"A big-time superstar in her native Australia," Amy Shark took the US by storm this morning with a performance of I Said Hi on the TODAY show in New York.

Fresh off the stage from Lollapalooza, Shark gave a relatively stripped-back performance of the pop hit, accompanied by a drummer and guitarist.

Shark and TODAY's hosts joked about her biggest fan Russell Crowe - "He should manage [me] or he should come on board, I swear to God," she joked.


Amping up for a headline North American tour, Shark's recently-released debut album Love Monster has racked up critical acclaim here and abroad, debuting at #1 on the ARIA Charts in July and enjoying a run as triple j's feature album.

I Said Hi - an ode aimed at the labels who turned the singer away - has clocked up almost 16 million streams globally, and peaked at #1 on the TMN Hot 100 airplay chart, spending 14 consecutive weeks in the Top 5 airplay.

Her newly serviced single All Loved Up is performing well, on track to become the #1 Most Added To Radio this week.
