Hailey went on to talk about the media attention and the paparazzi she encounters on a daily basis. “I get photographed so much that I feel like sometimes I put pressure on myself,” she says, “Even if I’m just throwing on jeans and a T-shirt, I want it to be a dope pair of jeans and a great T-shirt!”
