Sand, Sequins & Silicone
SAND
Born on an island six thousand miles away, but now I’m twenty-three and living my dream as a recording artist surrounded by the sun, sea, and celebrities of shiny Los Angeles. Sand in my toes, wind in my hair, and my friends by my side... What more could I ask for?
SEQUINS
My new album has just been released and I am on top of the world. Everyone wants a piece of me. Party invites with the paparazzi chasing me to capture my every move. I am wearing the latest in fashion, my songs are moving to the top of the charts. I’m shining. I’m glowing. I’m loving every moment.
SILICONE
Hollywood isn’t what I thought it would be. People aren’t who I thought they would be. Hollywood isn’t perfection - it’s lies and loneliness hiding behind smiles and laughter. When the doors close and the lights dim, everything and everyone is fake. I don’t know who I can trust, and I don’t know what to believe. Sometimes, I don’t even know who I am anymore.
I came here to make something of myself, to climb the highest mountain of fame possible, to find real love… but at what cost?
Life is all about balance and with the darkness comes light. I have my family and best girlfriends to keep me grounded, and a certain blue-eyed man I can't seem to get off my mind, my life is starting to look like a California dream. Things are heating up around here, and for the first time in my life, I'm the one with the power. Or am I?
