If there's one thing that I have thought of already in your analysis, it has to be the part where she poses with the bird cages... an obvious sign of being trapped. But even more so, that seems to be like a "final" pose... like when the song/performance ends, and she does this finale pose while the curtain draws... Maybe she's also trying to tell us that, at the end of the day, after her work/concert, she's still the same as ever - still trapped.
