She credited the Tortured Poets Department music artist with the idea for them to perform side-by-side, mentioning that other entertainers don't bother consulting with her and instead steal her signature moves. 'The approach that she gave me was a side-by-side. Certainly, people approach me all the time like, "Oh, can I use your glass?" — or they don't even ask me, they just copy as best they can,' the show business vet explained.
