Happy Transgender Day Of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ ❤️Proud to be an ally.

Quote Of The Moment (9.16.22)
“You know, I didn’t have a thing with butterflies when I was a kid,” she says during a phone interview. “I wasn’t one of those little girls who had a fascination with butterflies, even though I knew children who did.

It was me breaking through, to become free enough to fly…”–legendary singer Mariah Carey, on the making of her Butterfly album (MSN.com via Variety)
And happy 25th anniversary to this forever amazing album today! It was on heavy rotation in my CD walkman back then, and teen me also wanted to have my hair colored that exact light golden brunette shade she was sporting during that era. A music and hair icon! I will always ❤ me some Mimi!
