You have to stick to your own agenda, and do what you want, that'll make you happy. And often times, that conflicts with what other people want. But whether it's a producer, a judge, coach, whatever, you have to stick to what you want to do. It's not necessarily being diva. It's not necessarily being out of the norm. It's just being a strong enough person to say, "Stop. I'm gonna do it this way, and you can support me or not support me, but this is how I'm gonna do it." I think saying I’m a diva is crazy, personally.
