sympathyisaknife 15,963 Posted January 5, 2023 I don't think she was a stripper or a prostitute but I think she mainly explored those subjects in her early days as a way to build and create the all american girl vibe she wanted for BTD/Paradise. The all american girl who loves her daddy then goes stripping for his friends at night like at least thats what it seems to me. Β I'm not saying that she actually did that because I really don't believe she ever did, but I think that was the vibe she was going for. 6 Quote sitting on his lap sippin diet pepsi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the ocean 67,597 Posted January 5, 2023 let's make it clear that 50% of sirens / aka / born to die / paradise is probably fictional - not necessarily that she completely made it up but she definitely exaggerated or downplayed the truth to a point where it's not really true anymore just like how i doubt she had a boyfriend kill someone and then get put on the death penalty for it, i doubt she was going around bussin it down in the bedroom for coin she very possibly could've stripped for a time being though and a. good for her and b. is that really any of our business 9 Quote Β Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
