  • @clamarama I think OctoMania1928 possibly meant that in a good way. In the African-American community "you're a mess" can mean "you are something else" like that's "bad" means that's "good" & newstyle she's "phat" doesn't mean "fat". Ya digg?

  • Whew! She is a mess......that IS a compliment! Gotta love her! How could one not after seeing this performance. I got to up my stage game up after seeing this! I had never seen footage of her in the 60s until today, and I am glad I stumbled upon this clip.
