and that is a big reason why i support her using english now.

i do remember like you said, that she was 100% japanese and it was super surprising when she started using english. with that, i was never sure if she really knew what the words meant, even though i personally liked it. now however, we know that she understands the english in her songs.

so since she knows english and japanese, i see nothing wrong with her using both in whatever way she sees fit.

(but i do hope her pronunciation will improve!)
