“The reason I wanted to start making money early was because you would work from early morning to late at night without a house to call your own. After you paid the rent and our school fees, we’d have no money left and I hated that. The reason I decided to try and become a celebrity was because I thought it would be able to help provide an environment for me to make money faster. People think that it’s easy to be a star and wear pretty clothes, and I thought that it would be easy make money if you did well after debuting. I never realize until now that this isn’t something you can do forever.”
