00:00I'm Barbara, and, uh...
00:02I don't know if you really have to introduce yourself to anything.
00:04Well, I'm humble.
00:05I'm just saying.
00:07Hello, gorgeous.
00:11And you're so good that I...
00:13I hate you.
00:15I really hate you. You're so good.
00:16Oh, Judy, that's...
00:18That's so sweet of you. Thank you, you know.
00:20You're so great that...
00:21I've been hating you for years.
00:24In fact, it's my ambition to be great enough
00:26to be hated by as many singers as you.
00:28What nourished me was my imagination.
00:33That's where I escaped.
00:35What did you mean?
00:36Into a world of fantasy, you know,
00:38when I grow up, how I would be understood,
00:43how I would be liked.
00:45It doesn't matter, really,
00:47how many awards something received.
00:50What matters is, did it stand the test of time?
00:54Did it touch people's lives?
00:56You're the one person who's allowed
00:58to be the diva of all divas.
01:00No, no, no.
01:01We can change the temperature in the room
01:02and the lights.
01:03You can...
01:04And we still will love you.
01:06No, divas were opera singers, first of all.
01:08Oh, okay.
01:09And how come they never call men divas?
01:11Men and women in positions of power
01:13are described very differently.
01:15A man is commanding.
01:18A woman is demanding.
01:20He's assertive.
01:22She's aggressive.
01:23He shows leadership.
01:25She's controlling.
01:27A man is committed.
01:29She's obsessed.
01:30Of course, women are not supposed to be obsessed
01:33by anything but a man.
01:35Until women are treated equally with men,
01:39until gays and minorities are not discriminated against,
01:43and until children have their full rights,
01:47artists must continue to speak out.
01:49I will be one of them.
01:52Sorry, Rush, Newt, Jesse,
01:54but the artist, the citizen, is here to stay,
01:58to give tax cuts to the rich,
02:00to give tax cuts to me.
02:00I don't need them.
02:01I'd rather my money go to feed,
02:05you know, kids in school.
02:06I'd rather my money go to pay for education,
02:10for Health Start, for Goals 2000,
02:12to give kids student aid, college loans,
02:16have it to pay for research and science, technology.
02:19What a great business.
02:20You get to age publicly, right?
