Jewel
Jewel has voiced frustration over how her teenage homelessness is often portrayed. The common narrative suggests she lived in her car while chasing her music career, but that wasn't the case.
At the time, Jewel wasn't focused on music; instead, she was homeless because her boss withheld her paychecks after she refused his advances. Unable to afford rent, she ended up living out of her car, a story far different from the one usually told.
