crazy to think this was only 3/4 years ago

cosmetic procedures aside, I really thought she was in her prime here, but there were many good years ahead of her.

I was so inexplicably wrong. just by appearance and vocal abilities alone, she looks and sounds so much healthier and better here. again, I’m not saying she didn’t already look very different from her SWT/TUN era or didn’t get more stuff done to change her face and still looked the same. but I didn’t think it would go so bad so fast and that her Wicked/Glinda (aka white actress with a transatlantic accent) era would be her worst in all aspects with no end in sight. I really don’t think she’ll fully recover from her current phase/era/persona.
