@ғɪᴄʜᴇʀᴀᴢ: In the newspapers, critics billed her as 'The World's Smallest Waist' or even 'The Perfect Body', and the reviews of her show claimed that just by standing on stage and showing her figure she caused a stir among the audience.
As expected, she faced numerous censorship bans, from the church and conservative groups. On that note she reflects on the 2016 documentary 'Beauties of the Night': "The body, what's wrong with it? My favourite painters... Rubens and Michelangelo, have built a large part of their work on the female nude. Why is it okay for a man to say that a naked woman is art, but when I decide for myself it is wrong?".
