00:00I knew that I was a role model because that was the messaging that was told to me to be in the industry.
00:07And yet it doesn't dismiss the fact that there was a lot of pressure.
00:12Also, because I didn't look like all of the girls that I was in the same category with.
00:17So I felt like they were getting more opportunities because of the way that I looked in the way that I looked.
00:23So it was also just kind of, I'm just going to go to work, do what I need to.
00:28And I'm going to go to my Walmart signings and I'm going to go here while people are going to the big auditoriums and people are doing these movies.
00:37And I'm not getting the same opportunity for whatever reasons there are that I just have to be like, everything doesn't happen for everyone.
00:44And so the pressure to stay above water in the brain, the pressure to represent for my community and the girls that look like me was there.
