Usher said: Usher was featured on the syndicated newsmagazine show 'Entertainers with Byron Allen' on Wednesday night, where he openly criticized Justin Timberlake of *NSYNC and even took shots at Madonna, while boasting Janet Jackson. On Justin, he told Byron, "He's still got to find his own style and his own swagger - he's not on Usher's level. There can only be one Usher and I'm sitting right here." He continued, "A lot of people compare me to [Justin] and I don't understand why. I was making R&B classics when he was singing bubblegum pop and I had plenty of successful albums. I did the movies, and now he's trying to do movies. I've been in the game for 10 years now." When asked about who he'd like to do a joint tour with in the future, he said Janet Jackson. "She's an entertainer - a true entertainer. There's no one like her. Some people compare her to Madonna, but I think Janet's above that. Madonna hasn't impressed me in a decade, but musically, Janet is still setting the bar. The way I feel is, everybody wants to be Usher, everybody wants to be Janet - the problem is, we can't be duplicated." "Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole gets one." | |

I thought it was funny when KLF brought in Tammy Wynette to sing on "Justified and Ancient".
"They called me up in Tenn'er'see and said Tammy, pump up the jam." Andy is a four letter word. | |

sosgemini said: GrayKing said: well "Fever" is the signature song for Peggy Lee, so why was Sandra doing it anyway? i mean, if it's someone's signature song, it's someone's signature song... leave it alone. and Peggy was still alive at that point, and obviously still singing it, because Madonna went to see her show and got the idea to do it then. i hear ya..and shared the same thoughts..but being that madge and sandy were bestfriends at the time..and sandra was using it during her show you think madonna wouldnt have used it...per sandra, she took it from *her* show..not peggy...it is rather silly now in retrospect which is probably why they are friends again. they are both Kabballist You CANNOT use the name of God, or religion, to justify acts of violence, to hurt, to hate, to discriminate- Madonna

I'm on a mission for black women. Girls, do your men part-aaay? If they don't, tell 'em "No part-aaaay, no PUSSSSAAY".
Millie is outrageous in her interviews.I recall a 1979 interview in which she complained that people on the street keep mistaking her for Donna Summer."Everytime I change my hairstyle,she changes hers",Millie says."What people don't know about her is that she's short,has a wide can,and big teeth". OUCH!  | |

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!". I love it! Go Chaka! Yeah,you gotta love Chaka...lol... | |

Singing sensation Whitney Houston infuriated Burt Bacharach at rehearsals for the 2000 Academy Awards - by singing the wrong song. The singer is currently clean after spending March in rehabilitation for drug addiction, but four years ago she was reportedly not so sober. In Steve Pond's forthcoming book, The Big Show: High Times And Dirty Dealings Backstage At The Academy Awards, which exposes a host of Oscar secrets, Pond reveals Houston's performance technique angered Bacharach. In the tome, Pond writes, "Houston's voice was shaky, she seemed distracted and jittery, and her attitude was casual, almost defiant." Despite Bacharach, the musical director of the 2000 Oscars, playing "Over The Rainbow" on the piano, Houston began singing "The Way We Were." Pond continues, "Finally, Bacharach (at wit's end) slumped over the piano, (putting) his head down on the keys." Producer Lili Zanuck cancelled Houston's appearance at the ceremony, explaining, "We didn't want to work for six months for this to be a show about how f**ked-up Whitney Houston was."
