Bringing out your vulnerable side and shedding your privacy in front of complete strangers is so very difficult, but when you are into the performance, the relief and release is so extraordinary that you get addicted.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
One thing I don't personally like is not having that privacy I used to have. Being able to do whatever I wanted to do without people recognizing me. That makes me watch what I'm doing more carefully. I'm not going to be acting no fool.
It's dangerous when people are willing to give up their privacy.
Being out in the street is not an expectation of privacy. Anyone can look at you, can see you, can watch what you're doing.
When I am not on the stage, it is always very difficult for the public to find me! I am a private person who does not always want to be in the spotlight!
I am not sure precisely why we need to have privacy, but everyone knows for sure that we need to relax and not have to put on our social, outwardly looking face all of the time.
Put me on telly, and I think I have a relaxation on camera that makes an audience relax, too. It's not a conscious thing. Cameras don't bother me, whereas other people try to perform to them.
I don't immerse myself in the Internet chatter because it opens you up to a whole source of danger.
The audience is directly in front of you, behind you, beside you, above you. They're everywhere. And if that person's not looking at you, then that person over there is. So someone is always holding you accountable to being completely open and available in this immersive experience.
I just find it thrilling, especially when I totally lock in to the person that I am doing and I'm really flying... I suppose I am hiding myself when I sing as these other people.
I don't mind gearing my life towards privacy. It's my nature.
