<p>After completing a recent performance, Hernandez was met with a room full of applause. As the 36-year-old took the moment in, she began crying and wiping her eyes.</p>
<p>Shortly after, Hernandez explained why she was &#8220;so emotional&#8221; to the crowd.</p>
<blockquote><p>The reason why I&#8217;m so emotional [is because] this is my first time that I&#8217;ve ever performed with any cocaine, without any pills&#8230;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>As Hernandez speaks, the room erupts with outstanding applause and cheers. As she continues to take the moment in, the crowd begins chanting her name.</p>
<p>Hernandez then tells her audience that she loves them. Additionally, she even explains why she may have relied on the substances for so long while performing.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;This is the first time, in my 12 years of performing, that I&#8217;ve&#8230; sober&#8230; I don&#8217;t know if I was always so scared to do without it because it was like my shield, but it&#8217;s like, I feel so much better without it&#8230;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
