“I think that a couple of pictures sparked an interest. You know they acted as if I was doing frontal like nudity and that didn’t feel right. They completely lied and made up a story that was really false,” Paulina said in the interview. Long ago, she posted some pictures on Twitter that caught the eye of the public. Being the daughter of the Great One always puts her in the spotlight, even if she would do nothing.
