Over the years under conservatorship, she being manipulated by powerful men and a strong sense of self-ownership always emerged from her performances. This is what she said in the court during the hearing, 

“Somebody’s done a good job at exploiting my life,” she said, adding, “I feel like it should be an open-court hearing—they should listen and hear what I have to say.”

She added, “Ma’am, my dad, and anyone involved in this conservatorship, and my management, who played a huge role in punishing me when I said no—Ma’am, they should be in jail.”
