Being a singer isn't fun anymore

“As we get older, there are phases of life that we enter into, and being a singer-actress-model just isn't fun anymore,” she might have said, says a source who remained anonymous. Other reports hinted that she may branch out into other creative fields she is better at (and more interested in), though they didn't provide any details.

#ThankYouOphélie

For a little while on Friday evening, #ThankYouOphélie was a trending hashtag on Twitter. As many fans reminisce and look back on all the unforgettable memories, some may wonder what about now made her make the decision.

“You’ve accomplished everything I ever dreamed of #ThankYouOphélie.”
