Didn't Patti and Diana fall out because of that performance they had of "we are the world" and she said Diana took over... or tried to drown them out?
oh the infamous mic toss at the Motown finale?
Diana was PISSED
Patti was notorious for turning up on other ppl's MESS tho
Diana hands her the mic at around 2:28 and she starts acting a Tasia fool over 'iana's soft vocals
Dionne had to get BUCK too onstage with ha, can't find the video, but Dionne basically told her to HUSH
QuoteDionne Warwick VS. Patti Labelle ? Dionne Warwick, Patti Labelle, and Gladys Knight recorded a HBO special together (Sisters In The Name Of Love). Patti says in her book during their break Dionne Warwick comes in her dressing room and ask Patti not to sing so loud. To me it sounds like Patti is just a bit sensitive but like Aretha, Patti used that huge voice of hers anyway. Every segment that the three ladies sang together, Patti gave it her all. The ladies made up after Patti?s book was released. Dionne says she didn?t realize that she hurt Patti?s feelings.
Luth' had to read 'Retha a bit
QuoteLuther Vandross VS. Aretha Franklin ? Back in the 1980?s Luther worked as producer on two of Aretha?s albums. They were in the studio recording and Luther wanted Aretha to sing a note one way and she didn?t agree with it. Luther never one to back down from a Diva fight, stated that he was the producer and was responsible for her comeback in the 80?s therefore she should do it his way. The Queen of Soul was not having anybody taking credit for any of her body work and responded that he was the one listening to the radio learning from her as a child not the other way around and she apparently she did the greatest Diva exit ever. Eventually these two Soul stars got it together and were friends again after Luther apologize on the demand of Clive Davis (who was paying Luther).
ssssss
@ Clive basically making Luther apologize to her
Sarah and Roberta weren't having Retha's mess back then either
QuoteRoberta Flack, Sarah Vaughan, and Peggy Lee VS. Aretha Franklin ? Obviously from the names you can tell this is some straight old school Diva drama. Quincy Jones writes in his book that during the taping of a tribute to Duke Ellington in 1972, the other ladies were giving Aretha a hard time because she didn?t read music and wouldn?t wear the same color dress as them. Quincy says and we have proof that Aretha decided to just knock them dead with her voice. While the other ladies did a marvelous job, Aretha really was the star of the show.
