"Let's get off that subject. Move on. I'm doing something classical, not whizz-bang. Whizz-bang disappears. It goes 'whizz' and then 'bang'. You insult me by even wanting to bring it into this conversation. I'm not interested."
Kiri Te Kanawa on Susan Boyle.

ReplyDeleteIt bugs me when artists are so snide. Does she think it will make her look bad if she says something nice about someone else with talent? Even if Susan Boyle's fame and success proves fleeting, does she have to have predicted it, otherwise she will look stupid? No, it's called, "tact," you can compliment without saying all you think. Golly!
ReplyDeleteYour work of art is lovely...really lovely.
This is beautiful... it looks like a screen print?
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will be getting a lot of whizz in years to come.
"Have you heard Hayley? She's not in my world, she's never been in it at all."
ReplyDeleteThis is what Ms KTK had to say about Hayley Westernra! *cringe*
