    No autotune, No lipsynching, no click tracks, no pre recorded background vocals, no gimmicks, no twerking, no n word, no b word, no drama. Just proof that it can be done the right way!

      You got it wrong there. She wasn’t opening for Luther. They were co- headlining. At the time she was so sought after that Luther was concerned she might steal the limelight and resorted to not so nice tactics. This led to Anita retaliating and it went on from there.
