On November 6, 2018, she started the next parts of her tour, visiting the west coast of the US, Australia, and New Zealand. The tour received good reviews, with many saying Bregoli's stage presence made the show exciting.
In January 2019, Bregoli released two songs: "Babyface Savage" featuring Tory Lanez and "Bestie" featuring Kodak Black. "Babyface Savage" became very popular on YouTube and Twitter. The song also appeared on charts in Canada and the US, extending her record as the youngest female artist with many chart entries in over 20 years.

During April and May 2019, Bregoli released a new version of "Bestie" by Spenda C Nola Bounce and a radio version of the song with Megan Thee Stallion. She released the version with Megan so that her song could be played on the radio, as some radio stations were not playing Kodak Black's music at the time.
