Everyone has a story. From Jewel’s living in car and homeless story to your standard rags to riches hype, Kellie Pickler joins the ranks. Her story goes beyond any poor girl meets big money tale. The “American Idol” contestant lived with constant mental and physical abuse.
“I remember my mother and I were in the kitchen and I said, ‘I wish God would take me away, I’d much rather be dead than live here with you.’ She took a knife out, set it on the counter and said, ‘Here, do it then.’ I was in fourth grade. Of course I never would have acted upon it, but it’s done a lot of emotional scarring.”
That it is some deep shit. Best wishes to Kellie.
