She mentioned how some teachers would come at her because she stood out too much and even recounted the one time she painted her nail pink and had been punished for it.

She was then asked if she kept in touch with any of the teachers from school and she mentioned the teacher who inspired her

She said he was a Muslim but anytime he heard her singing he would tell her to go join the choir in church and learn how to sing more.
