A recording label wanted to sign me when I was 12 years old and my father said no. He knew they didn’t have my best interest in mind and wasn’t going to throw me to the wolves. It angered me for years but as I grew older and watched what famous people endure, I was thankful he made that decision. The entire ordeal is horrific but to me the most heartbreaking is what her parents did. Everything else can fuck off but how devastating to live with the daily knowledge they took full advantage of her AND still profit off it. Makes me crazy to even think about it.
