Bette Midler is promoting her latest album, It’s The Girls, where she covers songs from girl groups including TLC’s Waterfalls. During an interview with The Telegraph, the Divine Miss M didn’t hold back her opinions on today’s female pop stars. “It’s always surprising to see someone like Ariana Grande with that silly high voice, a very wholesome voice, slithering around on a couch looking so ridiculous.”
Regarding JLo and Iggy Azalea’s performance of Booty, Midler says: “I mean, apparently people really like to pretend they’re having sex. They really like to slap each other’s butts.” Midler did her best to keep things positive when asked to give advice to young female entertainers. “Trust your talent,” she said. “You don’t have to make a whore out of yourself to get ahead. You really don’t.”
