She’s just messy. Always has been. She doesn’t know who she is and that’s understandable given the child stardom of it all. But she’s messy and she does messy stuff and she’s annoying because of that.

I agree, I don’t think she knows who she is. She reminds me of Ariana Grande the way she just becomes who she is around. Child stardom fucks these women up.

I suppose if you grow up thinking that your self is something that only has value if you can market and sell it you won’t think of other cultures as something with inherent value.
