(10,622 posts)With or without the glam, she was such a sweet person, I can't imagine why she could not see that in herself and feel confident rather than so shy and uncomfortable.
She was beautiful before and after, perhaps the experience will grant her the confidence in herself that she should have felt all along.
It reminded me of a wizard of OZ thing, where the wizard just revealed that they had what they thought they lacked all along already within themselves.
With or without the makeup and dress, she was a beauty and a sweetheart all along.

Tiger mother (or tiger mum, ) is a strict or demanding mother who pushes her children to high levels of achievement, using methods regarded as typical of childrearing in East Asia, South Asia and Southeast Asia. The term is coined by Yale law professor Amy Chua in her memoir Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, which gave some Asian Americans and Asian parents the license to be as strict in order to ensure the success of their children in today's competitive global economy.[5]
Advocates suggest a strict approach to parenting produces an exceptionally high proportion of top performers kids who display academic excellence across the board with great musical ability and professional success later in life.
