About her image... I can't recall the interview exactly, but there was a recent-ish one that mentioned that she let go of trying to be a perfectionist when it came to her image a while ago. I think that it happened around 2009-2010, tbh.
Ah, it was Tell All's photobook.
Quote:
“With “Mirrorcle World”, I kept requesting for a stronger and more impactful arrangement. I did that then, most probably to protect myself. “Don’t look at anything else, just face forward and run, run!” In the end, I just wanted to tell myself that… When we returned from L.A. and were mixing “Tell All”, I remembered this. So the difference between “Tell All” and “Mirrorcle World” is that. I don’t need to be perfect, nor to protect myself anymore. I’m really afraid of nothing now. In the past, I created an iron wall with things such as hair and make-up, and felt safe when enclosed inside. Now, whenever I make myself up to be perfect, it just feels different and sort of lonely. Being perfect now feels incomplete. There’s hope there, but also despair. That is how I am.
