Millie Jackson & Gladys Knight's Connection LOL I've alwaysed thought of Millie as the evil-version of Gladys Knight. She IS Gladys Knight in alot of ways(the way they draw their pain in their music is so similar) she even phrases like Gladys Knight,,,but Millie is tougher and gullier, she is what she is(a mistress) and while people get shocked by her attitude, to her its a normal thang, ya know? What u see is what u get, fuck you and yo momma if you gotta a problem with the way I speak. Thats her attitude.
But I've alwaysed wondered about Miss Knight's feelings about Millie on the other hand? Does she resent Millie or does she dig her earthy/raw honesty? Does anybody know about them being under one roof, in one room having a conversation 2ghether? I'd def would love to know about that event,,,every second of it. | |

It has often been said that Millie's biggest influence (as a singer) was Gladys Knight.I don't know how Gladys feels about this...lol...
Slightly off-topic...in the late 70s,Millie didn't really like Donna Summer (or disco music in general) and she made some less-than-flattering commments about the disco queen.For some odd reason,during this period,many people felt that these two ladies looked alike.On more than one occasion,folks came up to Millie and thought she was Donna.Millie complained "Everytime I change my hair,she changes hers! What people don't know about her is that she's short,has big teeth and a wide can." Ouch! | |
