Madonna seemed like the up-tight rock/pop establishment being ruffled by an obnoxious upstart (a role she had held previously). no... I just think Maddy knew from dealing with her bro Martin... that when the addict starts asking for attention you don't reward the behaviour... you move on and let them do their thing with out you. Good thing Madonna didn't stay stuck in that mode for too long. She did seem like a total snob. But it's priceless, ya gotta admit. | |

Sylvester was such a diva. 
"The whole audtion lasted about five minutes" recalled Wash. "Sylvester said 'You're just the person I've been looking for. Do you know anyone else as big as you are that can sing?' I said yeah and called Izora that night." Later Sylvester recalled [This is the part I love] "I was just not into those skinny black chicks that would 'ooh' and 'aaah,' I wanted some big bitches who could wail." | |

I loved when she announced TLC as the winner of some award for Waterfalls, "WAHFOW! WAHFOW!"
I remember that! Her hair bobbing up and down as she enthusiastically, though unclearly, announced the winner. | |

I'm a big Sylvester fan and I can definately see him saying something like that. Andy is a four letter word. | |

This was a rumor that actually started when the internet first came about. Mariah tried to sue "THE FACE" magazine for printing it | |

Chaka Khan:
She let Mary J have it at the 1992 Soul Train Awards. Mary passed Chaka while she was having a conversation with the girls of En Vogue and said (very loudly) "Some bitches shouldn't be covering other peoples songs!!!!" Mary turned around and walked over to Chaka and asked "Were you referring to me?" and Chaka snapped back "I was having a personal and private conversation, BUT YES ...I WAS REFERRING TO YOU!". On the LAPD:"Whenever those fucks pull me over , I roll down my windows and say..GOOD EVENING HOSSIFER"

Actully the story of "Fever:" Madonna and Shep were recording "Goodbye to Innonence," and Madonna forgot the words and started singing the lines to "Fever" in it's place. Then Shep and Madonna deiceded to get the lyric sheet for "Fever" and try recording it to see how it would sound. They liked it and replaced "Goodbye to Innocence" with Fever.
