Since her rise to fame, her best friends have created a distance from her because of her crazy celebrity life.

LIFE GOALS ▶
- Curb her alcoholism.

» Charismatic » Sometimes, just the right words need to be said in the correct tone to successfully persuade another or gain affinity.

» Humble » Money and fame do not matter that much to Amy.
» Self-loathing » At her worst, Amy’s number one enemy is herself. 
» Dismissive » How others perceive her has little effect on Amy; however, when it comes to loved ones or her music, she will show concern about being perceived negatively.
