Stevie Nicks gave some advice to fellow singer Katy Perry about rivalries in the music industry. Stevie revealed that Katy asked her who her rivals are. Katy has a famous rivalry with Taylor Swift. While they have generally squashed any bad blood between them, fans still like to choose sides.
Stevie gave her some relatable advice. She responded, “And I said, ‘I don’t have rivals.’ And her big blue eyes got bigger and bluer. And I said, ‘No, Katy, I don’t, and neither do you. You are Katy Perry, you’re who you are, you do what you do and you’re great at it. I’m Stevie Nicks, I do what I do and I’m great at it. We don’t have rivals. That’s just ridiculous.’”
