Sia hides her complicated and tough past under the "mask." Here I mean an actual mask she wears every time under the spotlight. There are lots of things of her such as it to explore. So comfort yourself, the journey is about to begin.
Back in 1995, Sia started her career as a singer, while her debut album sold only 1200 copies, 1000 of which are from her hometown. After the failure, Sia decided moved to London with her lover, however, her lover died in a car accident before long.
It traumatized Sia deeply, making her live a life filled with drugs and alcohol for years. After that, she released an album, healing is difficult, in memory of her lover. From 2000 to 2008, Sia published several albums and changed her management company frequently because dissatisfied with poor marketing.
When <some people have real problems> released, Sia finally achieved better sales. After getting a taste of success, however, she said the following words in an interview" This buzz doesn't just come because of a good song. It's marketing. Which is sick. This is a sick business. It's so sad. Knowing now what goes into making a successful artist, it's disheartening" After that, Sia made her decision. She wanted to be a songwriter instead of singer anymore.
But in 2011, David Guetta released a single, Titanium, which is a huge success. But he included Sia's demo vocal on it. However, Sia was not pleased. "I never even knew it was gonna happen, and I was really upset. Because I had just retired, I was trying to be a pop songwriter, not an artist," she said. But after a long contemplation, she decided to seize the opportunity To prevent her from being "actual" famous, Sia put on a signature blond wig covering her face to live a life without paparazzi and public attention.
From 2003, Sia has released tons of popular albums and single, like chandelier, elastic heart, big girls cry, cheap thrills, the greatest, etc. Someone even made a funny version of chandelier.

Sia truly has a unique voice and deserves attention. But we might just leave her alone as she wishes. Although we can see her face from her early performance and albums, next time we see her on the street, we should pretend we don't know and wish her a happy and private life.
Sia-cheap thrills
Sia-big girls cry
