"The definition of diva has taken a turn for the worse. Everybody's a diva now. It's become not quite so special anymore. I'd say 'fabulous' is better. Diana Ross, Audrey Hepburn, those kind of people. Josephine Baker -- she was fabulous. That's what I want to be."

(Natalie Cole, nata Stephanie Natalie Maria Cole, cantante; Los Angeles, 6 febbraio 1950 – Los Angeles, 31 dicembre 2015)
