If a hundred people want autographs, sometimes you have to say no because you've got to get up for a 4 A.M. flight or something. In that sense, it really pisses me off when people think you've become a diva. It's not becoming a diva, it's because of the situation, I think.
Ellie Goulding

Sometimes, Become, Sense

Jenifer Lewis

Someone, She, Looks

That term's definitely got a negative aura to it, because people think a diva is somebody with an attitude who demands things all the time.

Jordin Sparks

Time, Attitude, Negative

The diva tag just won't go away. I think that's because people want me to be like that. It makes it more interesting if I have thrown a phone at somebody or a water bottle. Sadly that's just not me.
Katherine Jenkins

Away, Makes, Water

Katherine Jenkins

Katherine Jenkins

Life, Home, Her

Down, Acting, Tell

Cool, Beautiful, Feeling

Confidence, Try, Negative

I didn't think there was life after modelling, believe me. It's a hit to the ego when you are not the diva on the set any more. But I think what keeps me going are challenges. I love when people tell me I can't do something.
