shy and took up singing to deal with her shyness.
As she got better, she dared to sing in front of

everywhere I go.” However, too much attention
can also be a bad thing. “I always have to worry

very careful about what I say or do. And I don’t
have much private time anymore. Hanging
out with friends is almost impossible for me now
because there are always guards around me.”
