Quizzed about what she would do next, she answered: “Oh girl, nothing. Just mind my business, you know? And stay to myself.
“This is such a whirlwind, and you’re kind of like in a new place every second, and your brain is kind of all over the place.
“It’s fun and I’m grateful, and I wouldn’t change a thing, but sometimes you need to just, you know, disappear for a little bit.”
