“I listen to people. It doesn’t necessarily mean I have to do what people say. I am exploring myself, I’m only in my 20s, and I’m just having fun. I’m trying to learn what I like and what I don’t like. Try new things. If you listen to what people say you won’t know who you are, and I’m not here for the people, I live for myself.

“I try to keep my life private but it’s not easy when you’re here, in the type of position we’re in. When you’re a celebrity, people want to know and it’s not easy because eventually what you hide can’t be hidden forever,” she said.
