Career

In 2013, Palermo released a pre-release cover version of the Icona Pop song, "I Love It", which reached #71 on the UK Singles Chart.[5]

Personal life

In 2014, Palermo started a romantic relationship with Japanese national Manaki Okada. The following year, they eloped, and Palermo subsequently emigrated to Japan. This reportedly caused a rift in her relationship with her mother, turning into a public feud over different platforms.[6]

In 2018, at age 21, Palermo travelled to the Republic of Korea, where she underwent weight-loss surgery, despite only weighing 53kg at the time of the procedure. Palermo claims she contacted over 50 doctors around the world until she found one willing to proceed with the surgery. After the surgery, her weight at one point dropped to 38kg, and she was admitted to hospital, being treated with stomach medication and an IV drip.[7]
