Ive never had a very quiet voice. I tried in choir to make it smal

Ive never had a very quiet voice. I tried in choir to make it smaller, and it just didnt work out. And I listened to a lot of soul music when I was growing up on my own accord. But I was mostly into Mama Cass and Gladys Knight, and they all had big voices too just different than mine. – Beth Ditto

So now when someone calls me fat, I agree, whereas before I would get embarrassed and emotional. – Beth Ditto
