“Now I’m The Lion”
Autry’s press conference became increasingly odd as she gave additional details regarding her intention to approach the lion enclosure. To the reporter, she boldly stated, “Now I’m the lion. Isn’t it obvious? Have you heard of the concept of reincarnation? Make sure you know your history, young man! Do your research; it’s known as reincarnation. Now I’m the lion.”
“I love you a lion, hope they are treating you correctly in the zoo,” Autry told reporters, adding that she “connected” with the animal.
