I love her earings!!!!!

[@nope-xb1rd]

lmao guys she stretches her ears and u usually wear gauges with that and this is the first time i see someone with stretched ears wear hoop like earrings

[@TheAtlanta1234]

+tøp trash they are weights meant for streached ears:)

[@user-uk5um8bo7p]

shes 29 now she is so for real

[@Probably.Prosperity]

Take a shot every time she says "like" in this interview, you'll be drunk in no time!

[@havasa1517]

you would probably get alcohol poisoning, but still a good game! xD

[@chibianabeat1634]

SHE GOT A DEEP ASS VOICE THO. YOU GO GURL SLAY DADDY I FUCKIN LOVE YOU

[@EmeraldEyesGrl]

Her earring holes are so stretched out that looks painful and funky lol.. But I still love her :p

[@soniaf.r.7195]

+Snowtella it's a part of the earring, look closely at it it's just a clip (but it does give a weird optical illusion)

[@chrlalmighty]

+Sonia Riyad she has stretched ears and is wearing weights

[@soniaf.r.7195]

+Charlie Isaac I'm pretty sure its the clip of the heart ring, not her earhole because it's not the same shade of brown

[@soniaf.r.7195]

+Charlie Isaac besides when she moves her head the clips dangle as well

[@chrlalmighty]

Sonia Riyad it's her ear moving which it would do because it's skin with a heavy peice of metal in it. she's had stretched ears since the voice and they don't just shrink back to normal

[@evaorlitova3931]

I love her so much
