Speaking in the latest issue of Cosmopolitan, the premium diva revealed that – even at the height of her success – she was insecure about her vocal chops and often questioned “why” she has become so revered.

For one reason or an unfortunate other, those who either were too young to remember or yet to be born when Madonna and Britney Spears enjoyed their respective peaks, have been fed a gross mistruth by in recent years.

A mistruth, that claims that controversy and ‘rubbing critics the wrong way’ saw both ladies afforded the praise and acclaim they enjoyed then and still enjoy today.
