Going through a bad breakup may be the most relatable experience practically everybody has been through. What sets us apart is the way we grow coming out of those toxic entanglements. While mired in an abusive relationship, Salice Rose turned to social media as an escape. Nothing more.
“I was in a super abusive relationship and I didn’t have a way out,” Rose explains. “I was scared for my life. It’s hard to leave. So I went on social media—I had no following whatsoever—and started posting funny stuff. Things that would distract me and help me make more friends, I never did it for fame.”
What started as a mere respite from a dark situation ended up igniting a conflagration within Rose. She had always been a boisterous individual, a born entertainer, but she never imagined those skills would take her anywhere.
“In my mind I was thinking, I wasn’t born into money, I don’t know any people in the industry, I can’t make it on my own, even though I feel like I can,” she says. “What was my hobby ended up being my career, and that’s why it comes so naturally to me. Because it was a hobby, it’s fun to me, it lights my soul on fire. It goes to show that when you’re passionate about something you need to put your all into it because if you do, you’re going to make something great out of it.”
