And I played into it because I came from being a tōmboy.
I never used to get that kind of attention or be called beautiful.
But it got to a point where they wanted that more than my music.
It got to a point where if I didn’t go and see some ‘chairman’ personally,
I wouldn’t be allowed to perform at the show.
I even lost an endorsement because I refused to travel to Dubai with the company’s owner.
That was when it hit me…
They didn’t care about my talent.”
