00:00I know early in your career, when you were 16 years old, you signed with a manager who was in
00:05his 50s, and he crossed the line.
00:09It kills all the emotion and all the love that I used to have for music, you know, and at
00:15that time, there's so many things that you feel that you're not able to talk.
00:20That's why I always say that it's super important to teach people to be open with all the feelings and
00:26all the different experiences, because sometimes you want to say things, but you don't find a way or you don't
00:33have this, I don't know, you cannot speak about them, and at that time, I couldn't speak about nothing, and
00:41I just said, I don't want to do this anymore.
00:43And I just told my father, please, just take me out of this, like, help me, I don't feel comfortable.
00:53And I just asked my father this, please take me out of here. He worked a lot of years just
01:00to pay what it cost to be out of that contract.
01:02I think something you said, too, Carol, that's so relatable for women is, like, sometimes, and I agree it's so
01:08important to talk about this, because hopefully, if there is a woman who's listening to this going through something like
01:13that right now, maybe she will feel more comfortable to speak up, but it's so hard in the moment.
01:18It's, like, debilitating. You feel frozen, right? Knowing how much your dad was your biggest supporter and was there with
01:24you, like, can you explain for people who may not understand, like, why you didn't feel like you could tell
01:31him what happened?
01:32Now, I don't even understand how I couldn't say nothing, but I couldn't. It was like, kind of, I was
01:38embarrassed of the things. I was embarrassed of myself. There's no explanation. But I just feel that girls need to
01:46understand that you have to speak.
01:48There's not a way if you have someone that is making you feel uncomfortable, disrespected, not dignity at all. There's
01:58nothing good that is going to happen. Nothing good. Like, because you think there is a, this is the way
02:04or whatever. That's never going to be the way. That's going to make you lose time. And that's going to
02:10make you lose yourself.
02:11You know, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
02:11I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
02:11know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I
02:11don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
02:11I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
02:11know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I
02:11don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
