LimiaKentledge on November 3, 2025 2:37 pm unrecognizable to how she looks now, kind of crazy. at least she’s stopped blackfishing hopefully?
Curiosities on November 3, 2025 2:51 pm Now that people shared that whatever lift she seemingly had left her with uneven eyebrows I can’t unsee that. And looking back on stuff like this makes it stand out even more.
peechiekeene on November 3, 2025 2:53 pm every once in a while, i remember the first performance she did of this song on the ellen show. this song and music video was a moment for me as a freshman in high school. we were waiting in class for the video to drop.

Comfortable-Yam9013 on November 3, 2025 3:08 pm Not an Ari fan, I really believed she was mixed race at least. Crazy amount of fake tan and make up
