Dionne Warwick wishes younger artists today would be more cognizant of what they are saying and the possible ramifications
Editor’s Note: The CNN Film “Dionne Warwick: Don’t Make Me Over” premieres Sunday, January 1, at 9 p.m. ET exclusively on CNN. The legendary singer told CNN she believes social media factors into some reckless commentary, one of the reasons she decided to join Twitter. “I was with my nieces and nephews and they were just giggling and carrying on because their little thumbs were going mad, and I wanted to know what they were laughing about,” Warwick said.
“There are a lot of things that, to be honest with you, I had forgotten about,” she said. “And to see them again was like, ‘Oh,yeah, I remember that.” In all fairness, Warwick has achieved so much it would be easy to overlook some accomplishments. She said she is pleased with the completed documentary, as well as her title as the unofficial “Queen of Twitter” for her pithy commentary on the platform.
