Kodwa uAnn akazange enze nantoni na ngokungxama, ‘Ubomi bakhe bonke, wayefika emva kwexesha kuyo yonke into,’ wayeyixhalabele ngokukhethekileyo inkangeleko yakhe yaye wayemi ngelokuba wayengayi kulishiya igumbi lakhe ngaphandle kokuba “ngamashiya nelipstick. " zazikhona. UAnn wayethanda uSuku lweCasino kwiMPTF kodwa wayengengomlandeli omkhulu webhingo!
