Even if they tried to stop me or tried to steer me the right way they would have lost their daughter. I'm too headstrong. And it wasn't a plan. It just happened and my career and everything just kept getting bigger and bigger."In her spare time she enjoys abstract paintings, horse riding, reading, playing World of Warcraft
