Say what you want about her, Aubrey O'Day isn't too worried about hearing what people think of her, as the ex-Danity Kane member claims in a new interview with Curve magazine, "I'm one of the most underestimated people in the industry."
"People don't expect much from me. They expect me to be a hot mess, they expect me to say all the wrong things and wear the wrong outfits," she adds.
So does any of that criticism get to her? Not at all.
"That's how I like it though," she explains. "I think it's really easy to move through the industry as a woman when you're underestimated."
