02:27like she just, you know, maintain her identity, you know,
02:30like with her music, with her art and everything.
02:33So, yeah, I wanted to be someone like her that, you know, can maintain my identity.

02:39I know dancing has been such a big part of your career and your life.
02:45Can you remember as a little girl, like the first routine
02:50you ever memorized, maybe from just watching music videos or something?
02:57I don't really remember because I start to dance when I was like super little.
03:01I was like four or five.
03:06But I remember my first day at the dance school.
03:10OK, yeah. Like my mom have me wear like a skirt
03:16and I just went in and there's like tell me to like kick
03:20and everything else like I'm in the miniskirt.

03:30like you were naturally good at it?
03:31Or did you have to like really work hard and bust your butt?
03:35I really work hard on dancing because I think I love it.
