ochacoThursday, December 24, 2020 at 12:15 pmThis looks so cool I've never seen a holographic singer before, though I wish I could understand more that "I'm the number one princess in the world and suddenly I'm being pulled behind to safety you tell me to be more careful, I think you're more dangerous!"
