From the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards:
She was recently featured in an article by Main Line Today discussing her “fashion roots,” wardrobe preferences, favorite places to shop, and icons, among other style-related topics. An excerpt:

As a teenager, I won an American Idol-style TV singing contest in Taiwan, which introduced a shy, simple girl to life on television in Thailand, Hong Kong, South Africa and China, before returning to my birthplace in the suburbs of Philadelphia.
