The artist not too long ago opened up in a brand new interview with People about her experiences of bullying at school. “I was bullied because I wasn’t quiet and I was awkward at the same time,” she mentioned. “I wasn’t this tiny unhappy sufferer, however I used to be extra so attacked simply because it was giving ‘what is wrong with you?’ power.
“I always thought, ‘Oh my God.’ I’ll never have the approval of anyone in life, this must be my defining factor, this must be the bottom line.”
She added that she doesn’t remorse that chapter in her life and as an alternative, believes that it has made her who she is right this moment.
“I realized that all the things that made me feel so lame were actually what made me into who I am,” she defined. “It’s like, I didn’t go to prom because I didn’t have any friends and I had no one to go to prom with…[and now] it’s so weird that my life turned into [having] a bodyguard while traveling to parties.”
Reviewing the album, NME awarded ‘SOS’ 5 stars and described it as “a comeback album well worth the wait”.
It added: “The US star’s first album in five years – and her last ever, she says – is sprawling, superb and rarely puts a foot wrong.”
