After meeting with a modeling agency and not feeling"pretty enough," she went home and got rid of her fringe."It looked sooooo bad but I thought I was gorgeous!!!!" she said of exposing her forehead."I think I knew it didn’t look good but I did it because I thought it made me cool .... and I’ve pretty much had it like that ever since!"
