With over 54 million followers on TikTok, Dixie is one of the platform\u2019s biggest stars, and like several others on the platform, she has gone on to launch a music career which has allowed her to collab with some big celebrities and release several hit songs. Although her music gets mixed reviews, there\u2019s always a buzz online when she releases a new single, often teasing it through a short clip on TikTok. But fans were baffled after she released a snippet of her new song \u2018Psycho,\u2019 completely convinced that they actually heard her singing \u201cshyco,\u201d or even \u201cshy girl\u201d instead. When the song was released in full, it appeared that the pronunciation had been fixed, which lead many to believe that it could have been for publicity. Now, in a premier party video for the release of the music video for the song, Dixie has explained exactly what happened.
