Need advice on a photo.

Not so long time ago I took this photo but the girl think people will not like it. I never counter models feelings but she's young and don't recognize here self in this photo (at first it was the goal). Outside my staging, she's a goofy teen with teens habits. I think she's wrong because I do think this photo have "something". On this photo she have a bit of a mix between a writer and Janis Joplin IMHO. Do you think it deserve her ? I need frank and direct evaluation.
