@bonnie_blue_xox Perspective is everything. We're all on different journeys trying to 'get there', wherever that may be for each of us. An open mind is key to gaining insights from others' experiences.

The moment that drew my attention to Freen was when you went to Cannes and there was a photo of your in a red dress which got tenth of thousands of likes—I was like, who’s this? I want to ask how you view Cannes before and after you went there. When I found out that I will be there, I felt it was such a grand event. Never imagined… like me? ME? Who am I to get to go there? And when I was there… it was really grand. And the photo time was so long that I thought…. Are we done? Didn’t know what to pose already. Was very nervous inside but had to act confident. Come…. Take photos… but inside, scan around…. How many? How long is the camera wall😅 It’s a good moment in life. Saw Queen Chompoo went so many years and looked so grand every time. I was one who was excited to see what she will wear. So when it was me, I was excited. And when was there, was a bit pressured—what dress and accessories to wear. I had to do a lot of homework. I was a bit surprised with myself. They have dresses for me to choose from. Had to pick what fitted me. But when I liked the red design… but it was red, which I have to wear to a red carpet… I was like… what to do… and decided to go for it. I’ll go with it. Not sure how red on red will be but went with it. MC: for me it was a good choice. I felt. This kid is brave. You could handle it and made it seem effortless/ not stressed. Felt you weren’t stressed out by the red carpet. I thought you handled it well. Thank you so much. It was my first time. I was really scared. The necklace. I’ll tell you about was the first time in my life that I went to choose it all by myself. Had to pick accessories worth many tenth of millions alone. Had to go through 3-4 doors with massive guards and there was one guard with me. They went do you like this, no? Next. No? Next. Was not able to put on the dress and tried… had to imagined it. I think that room had accessories worth tenths of billions. All could do was put it against my neck and imagined it with the dress I picked. Was difficult but I think I got a perfect total look. MC: I’m also interested to know which part you like the most about Cannes aside from the red carpet. There were so many eventful stuff. First I missed my flight! Instead of two stops/transfer I had to take four or five. …. …. Anyway that’s fine. My team was good and professional—the manager, makeup, hair. We had to deal with the situation but got through it while still had good humor about it. MC: what thought about hotel Martinez iconic stairs. Met so many people/celebrities. It was like a check in spot for everyone. After you finished getting ready, had to take photos there. It was another memorable moment. Not everyone can be there. Overall, glad I experienced getting ready there and went to the red carpet.

Anne Hathaway tells the story of dancing at a party before opening her eyes to see everyone recording her with their phones. Oh my gosh, I love this outfit. I had so much fun. This was such a fun night out in Paris. Adam and I were so lucky. We’re parents, we have two young kids, but we had a stolen weekend in Paris and got to go to the Valentino Couture show that Pierpaolo had invited us to. I got to go to their beautiful showroom, and this was waiting for me on a hanger. The tights were so beautiful. They were a little hard to stand in, but I didn’t care because I felt fierce. It was just a fantastic night. I think we all wound up on the dance floor, and Pierpaolo came over when we were talking. Then at a certain point he just goes, “I’m so sorry, I can’t be here. It’s not right. It’s not right that there’s a rope here. We should be out there. I’m going to go out there.” I was like, “Well, of course, you’re absolutely right, and I should be out there too.” So we went out there and we were dancing, and the song was so good and the vibe was so lovely that I just kind of closed my eyes and started dancing. When I looked up, I saw that like half of the dance floor had their phones out. I was like, “Well, hello.” Then I looked on my other side and I’m like, “Everyone’s filming this.” I’m just like, “Oh well, that’s life.” So I just kept dancing, and everybody kept dancing. We were dancing and filming, and it was lovely.

⭐️: I honestly spent so much time thinking about it. At first, I kept wondering if it was the right choice. Every time I looked in the mirror, it felt unfamiliar and a little awkward. And I think there are certain shades of blonde that suit me, and others that just don’t feel like me. But I really, really thought about it a lot. On top of that, there were times when I was out and about and had to deal with some not-so-great reactions because of it, so I had a lot of worries. I kept going back and forth in my head. When I wore that outfit for the music show performance, I actually couldn’t sleep at all the night before. I had so many thoughts and worries that I was basically fighting with myself. My mood was really bad that day. But even though my body felt like it weighed a ton, I dragged myself to the music show and did it. And while I was there, I was still battling with myself, thinking, “Is this really right? Am I just too stuck in my own perspective to see it clearly? Maybe I’m the only one who doesn’t get it.” But at the same time, I kept telling myself, “We already filmed the music video like this. This is something I have to commit to.” So I went on stage. I was honestly feeling really down that day. I had almost no confidence in myself. But later on, seeing that so many people understood it and liked it made me realise that maybe it wasn’t completely the wrong choice after all. That said, my favourite hairstyle on myself is still black hair. So today, I got my hair and makeup done, looked in the mirror, and thought, “I need to go live.” So here I am.

Asked to reflect on navigating a “hellish” public breakup, Perrie acknowledges that she receives criticism for answering questions about it, “[but] I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’”: “People are gonna hate me talking about it… I can’t catch a break. If I talk about this, they’re like: ‘Why are you talking about it?!’ But anyway, shut up! Yeah, [it’s my life]. When you go through heartbreak, it is hellish. You can’t eat, you can’t sleep, you feel horrendous. You don’t feel good enough and you feel like you’ve been left for something better, or whatever it is… Then what makes it even worse is, I feel like the world was then looking at me, laughing at me. I felt embarrassed; I felt horrified. I had serious breakdowns. I did. Because it wasn’t just the heartbreak I was dealing with. I was dealing with everybody looking at me, and I felt ridiculed. I just couldn’t cope with it; I hated it. I was breaking down in performances, which isn’t like me at all. I was crying constantly. I think I was depressed… I know that sounds ridiculous! But I think it was this plus this plus this, and everything on top. It was like, I had to be there for the girls; I had to be switched on; I had to power through for Little Mix – but I also just wanted to be left the fuck alone. But I also was getting followed every two seconds and asked about it 24/7, and it was the headlines, it was everywhere, and it was a lot! And this is the thing – when people are like, ‘Stop talking about it!’ I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’.”

This young lady was trying to finish her workout in the machine when another woman attempted to kick her off of it because she’s in a rush. The woman claimed the young lady was already on the machine for 10 minutes and felt entitled enough to say that it’s her turn now. What would you do? I would ignore her in hopes she walks away, at least the whole thing is on camera so she can report it. After working out for about 30 years now, I can say that most of the time gym people are pretty chill people. Every so often I see some Karen types beginning to come in and ruin the experience for other people. What I hate is they try to rush me off the machine only for them to sit there and scroll on their phone. I used to avoid the confrontation by just letting them use it, I can always come back to it I would say to myself. After seeing so many of them so comfortable with imposing their will on others I now just ignore them, I won’t even acknowledge them, that’s why I have headphones on anyways, it’s my excuse to ignore them without being rude. It doesn’t make sense to me by getting out of their way when I was first. I understand if I was on there for a long time then maybe I will let them go first but the way I see it, I am every bit entitled to use it when I get there first, I shouldn’t have to get out of the way just because they want me to. Would you do the same? I would like to think most people would agree with me on this matter.
