I tripped over again.’ I’ve realized that…even though I had the training days that was more about…I need to be good at dancing not how do I keep myself safe and healthy while I’m doing this.”

Jennie added, “I feel like I’ve disappointed my fans at some point in my life where it seems like I wasn’t giving my best. But…I haven’t had the moment to say this, but I…I did not know how to control my body and use my body the way I should. Something like I just don’t do well in heels.”
