It was controlled from this one space. But now we have the Internet. So if you want to see somebody who&#8217;s beautiful who looks like you, go on the Internet and just type something in. Type in &#8216;blue hair.&#8217; Type in &#8216;thick thighs.&#8217; Type in &#8216;back fat.&#8217; You&#8217;ll find yourself reflected. That&#8217;s what I did to help find the beauty in myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And now, she&#8217;s clearing the path for more trailblazing queens.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s just make space for these women,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Make space for me. Make space for this generation of artists who are really fearless in self-love. They&#8217;re out here. They want to be free. I think allowing that space to be made is really what&#8217;s going to shift the narrative in the future. Let&#8217;s stop talking about it and make more space for people who&nbsp;are&nbsp;about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tune-in-4\" class=\"post-content\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"33\">\n<p class=\"tune-in__text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\">Don&#8217;t miss <em>E!
