That’s not all; The star also talked about how “overwhelmed” she feels by celebrity life, claiming she hasn’t found her exact niche while her TikTok compatriots move on to other endeavors like music and drama.
“I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes. I feel like I’m going in any direction … I would hate being that person, which is why I feel like I’ve stopped me from trying a lot of new things. I also feel extremely overwhelmed by what has already happened. “
“There are a lot of things that go on behind the scenes that not everyone can see,” she added. “… Everyone already has their thing and I haven’t found mine yet.”
