IMHO, she had great stories, but is at least a selfish, impulsive person, and at worst, a raging narcissist. This is even factoring in the difficult road unique artists as herself had to tread in the last 60 years. YMMV.

It's not as bad as the Motley Crue bio, but I had a bad taste in my mouth, and it took me awhile to listen to her again.

Oh!

"Brazilians use Mas que nada (or just que nada) colloquially to disagree with someone. A fitting English translation might be a sarcastic 'Yeah, right!'.

With many recordings, the title song is incorrectly written Mais que nada (Portuguese for 'more than nothing') which would fundamentally alter its meaning. "
