What is the use in being a celebrity if you can't use the platform to help?

I worked at Ikea as a customer service rep for two years and loved it.

Everyone needs a creative outlet to express themselves, and the arts in school provides that.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I hate the bad rap that people give my parents. Because they are just parents, really, at the end of the day trying to stand up for their daughter and themselves.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.
