A diva is someone who is a perfectionist, who does her best in her craft.
From Patti LaBelle
So if diva means giving your best, then yes, I guess I am a diva.
You don't have to be an angel, just be someone who can give.
I have to go 150 percent or nothing at all.
I've had 60 years of ups and downs, and all of the downs that I've had, I'm happy that I've had them because it's taught me to appreciate all the ups.
I'm 60, and I did 60-year-old women songs. I'm not trying to be the Hip-Hop Queen, although I am the original Hip Hop Queen.
I keep showing decade after decade that I am a real performer.
All I can tell you really is if you get to the point where someone is telling you that you are not great or not good enough, just follow your heart and don't let anybody crush your dream.
You've got to know business before you go to show business.
Women are dominating the charts, and women are doing it for themselves. We're kicking butt and taking no prisoners.
