I've lived many lives—lives you'll never know about. To the public, I'm Joann Blanchett, a name adored by fans, a voice that echoes through arenas, a face that graces every magazine cover. But that's only the part I let them see.
There are pieces of me buried so deep, even I struggle to remember them. Moments of darkness, identities lost, a history that should have never existed. When I was young, I was torn from everything I knew, sent to a place that was never meant to be home. I took on a new name, a new face, became someone who wasn't me. I buried the girl I had been under layers of fear and pain.
For years, I played the role of someone I wasn't, hiding in plain sight, masking my truth. I became what I needed to survive—silent, invisible, forgotten. And when I returned, I was supposed to be whole again. But I wasn't.
When I returned, I was Joann once more – but I was never the same. The girl who left behind everything she knew never came back. Instead, there's only a woman who has learned the art of silence, who has mastered the mask. I've lived more lives than anyone could ever guess, each one more fragile than the last.
The truth is, no one really knows me. Not the real me. And perhaps they never will. For some stories are meant to be whispered only in the dark, for ears that know better than to ask questions they aren't ready to hear.
