Before signing her first record deal, Sinead O'Connor sheared off her long dark hair.
Later, the singer remarked that she had no intention of conforming to the requirements of the music industry, according to The Sun.
This powerful demonstration stemmed from a young age when an abusively verbal mother labeled Sinead as the "pretty daughter".
In 1985, Sinead was determined to put out a lighthearted record, and declared: "You're supposed to wear push-up bras and lip gloss and shut up and sing."
This was the onset of her public refusal which ultimately brought about the downfall of her career after tearing up a photo of the Pope on television.
In the final conversation of her life in a documentary airing this weekend, she proclaimed: "They tried to bury me, but didn't realize I was a seed."
Explaining her thought process, the award-winning singer said how she didn't want to submit to anyone else's directives for her life.
Sinead went on to say that in a society steeped in patriarchy, she was well aware of the expectations imposed upon her purely because of her gender.
She explained how her father played into these norms and standards, which was why she decided that no one would dictate how she should be or what she could do.
The "Nothing Compares 2 U" hitmaker also said that many people speak of accessing a well of inspiration when creating art, but she believed it was more often their subconscious guiding the process.
"I had these songs inside of me that just had to come out."
She added, "I write songs about things that I feel strongly about, it's not consciously to write a political song or consciously to make a statement about anything and I think that everyone's duty to themselves is to act on their feelings and say when something is wrong."
"An artist's job is to sometimes create difficult conversations that need to be had and it's none of my business what anyone thinks of me when I do that."
