"Being a DJ is easy?"

@nanienarni reacted:

"She has more of a girl-next-door face than a seductiv* baddie look. She’s very beautiful, but the DJ aesthetic doesn’t really match her vibe."

@AlexMapane72804 commented:

"She's a go-getter, this one. I thought it was only in Scandal, but it was not acting, but being herself in front of the camera."

@Tempo_rsa responded:

"At least she is not showing mdidi, and it looks like she knows her story and is enjoying everything, that's what matters."

@SigaBopha__ reacted:

"With the modern decks, yes."

@Vee_wawe said:

"Apparently, the toxic working environment at Scandal made her look into other aspects of life."

@Pule1033 wrote:

"The way she burned bridges, this was the only sure way out. Acting is gone gone."

@IrepTriplep commented:

"This thing works better when a girl is hot, and promoters wanna snack."

@ChinaBerry_ responded:

"I hate what the industry does to promising artists. I am glad she's making her way."
