o She even revealed that the song “Goldwing” off of her Happier Than Ever album was inspired by her.
o Soke of the lyrics in the song include, “They're gonna tell you what you wanna hear. Then they're gonna disappear. Gonna claim you like a souvenir. Just to sell you in a year.”
o She admits that she sees herself in all of the young girls that are coming up in the industry saying, “Boys can handle themselves. They’re dudes — they don’t have to deal with it like we do. I just want to hold everybody in a little glass box and never let anything touch them.”
