Quotes:

Jackie Washington: Of course, now, I *do* pay homage to all the dead divas -- Billie, Ella, Shirley Bassey...::Edward Whatsett St. John: Shirley Bassey is alive.::Jackie Washington: Really? God bless her. But now them others -- I'm not gonna name names... but they all stole from me. Aretha, Whitney, Little Brandy, Streisand, Diahann Carroll... Oh. and Bea Arthur. They all stole from me.

Melissa Etheridge: I remember Jackie's song "Look At Me." She sang it at the Oscars that year. Um, it was from that, uh... movie... ah ah ah... the one... um, the one where Raquel Welch plays, um, the nun... yeah, it was called "Stacked Sister." That's it.

Chris Rock: I influenced... a lot of Jackie's work. I never wanted money. I didn't want the fame. I just wanted some love... and she couldn't give it.

Dolly Parton: Oh I saw "Coco's Revenge." I saw that. What can I say about that movie? That sucked.

Edward Whatsett St. John: Now, I admit that when they proposed you as a subject, I didn't really know who you were.::Jackie Washington: They sold my records in England.::Edward Whatsett St. John: Yes, but *I* never heard them.::Jackie Washington: Are you trying to provoke me? 'Cause you are *not* gonna make me get ugly on film. This ain't "60 Minutes," okay?

Penny Marshall: Jackie's a diva.::Don Cornelius: I think, if you look in the dictionary for the word "Diva," you'd probably see Jackie's picture.::Eva Marie Saint: A diva is a very spoiled singer who lies... like Jackie.::Bruce Vilanch: It's a larger-than-life creature who can turn on a dime... or on a friend.::Diahann Carroll: It's a word that some gay man made up...::Howie Mandel: What is a diva?::Ethyl Washington Rue Owens: A dumb... ignorant... vicious-- [asshole bleeped out] And if that's what Jackie calls herself, she's right.

Robert Townsend: It brought to an end the black-exploitation movies of the '70s. After the studio saw that one film, they said "We're not making another." I just remember, a lot of the people in Hollywood were really upset. You know? Normally somebody says "You're not gonna work in this town again," and with Jackie a lot of people said "You'll not work in this *country* again."

Shaniqua Summers Wells: I wasn't out of the house two hours before my mother turned my room into a den. She calls it a "den"; I call it a "shrine to her ego". When I was growing up, my mother's priorities were her career, her makeup, her hair, and then, her children, and that's the best thing I can say about her. To be fair, she did think about our hair and makeup. I got my first wig at age three. How many kids get that?

Snookie Tate: I heard you get a check every time they play one of your old songs on the radio. And with just one of them checks? WOOH. I could get me a new refrigerator. Y'know, one of them frost free.

Jackie Washington: Momma's gonna need some of her special cough medicine... and make it a double, Antandra.
