I had really bad acne and hid behind geeky pink glasses. Going on stage was an escape. When I said I wanted to be an actress and singer, the other kids would all look at me like, are you serious? I wanted to prove myself. I never spoke up about what was happening to me, but when I was about 16 I decided I’d try every medication until I got rid of my acne. My mum finally found a clinic and my doctor took me by the hand and said, “Karen, we’ll get rid of it”, and we did. I wrote a song called Pink Glasses, which was about me hiding behind them. It brings tears to my eyes when I look at a picture of myself in them.’
