“I think that’s how I was definitely introduced to the world, so I like to think that I’m aware and not naive to that fact, ” she told Oprah Winfrey. “But I do know that again it’s something that I would take back. I’m definitely not grateful for that experience, I would say if I had one regret that would be it. If I were to do it again, like live my life again, obviously I wouldn’t do that again. If I had the information and would’ve known better, I would’ve done better.”
