In 2019, you made the decision to leak your own nudes. It started off with a best, like, oh, hi, tier something something, and then again and again and then a photo of me that I had never posted. I was like, ugh. My brain best, like, chills. And then he was like, you want more? And so he sent more, and then he, like, kept sending them until he got me in a conversation with him. And I'll never forget, I'm with my manager, Thor. At that time, I, like, looked at him. I showed him the messages. He read through all of them, and I was just like, I don't know what to do. Like, it just feels like this is what's happening again. Like, my power was taken from me then for so many years, and now he has this he has this thing of me, and he's he's taking it again. It's like it felt like being, like, rank that also feeling this, like, everything will end if this if he does this. Everything will end for you. Everything, all the shit that you've been through, everything you've done to get to this point, it's all going to be blown up and and just it's gone if he does this. And having someone else have that power and that agency over your own bad, and I was like, well, at the end of the day, if I'm gonna lose my whole career and everything I've worked for being, like, 20 at that time and working since I was eight, I'm gonna just, like, just say fuck it all, and I'm never gonna work again, and my life's over because this man's gonna do this. So I'll just do it. I think the worst part of that was people saying, you did this. You are faking it. You just wanna show us your tits. You worst us so badly to see your private parts that that's why you're doing it. You want it. And that, to me, like, really broke me. And then, I get, like, a call one day, and it's the FBI. And they're like, hey. You know, we've seen this thing. We think it's our guy. And, like, can we come over? Can we get all the data? Can we see what this is? And they came over to my house. The grace and the bravery that it takes someone is so incredible. Anyone who's ever had to write, like, a victim, quote, unquote, statement, I give it up to everyone who has come forward and everyone who hasn't. You know? Both are incredibly brave in their own right, and that is the truth.
