She continued to express her gratitude despite not returning, saying, “I wanna thank everyone who supported me. Especially everyone who came to see my tour this summer , wore costumes from characters and had such wonderful things to say. You mean everything to me.I hope I was able to spread joy and laughter — all love. Onwards and upwards.”
