I saw her live in fairly small venues a few times before she really blew up and she was amazing. She was throwing candy out to the crowd and was cracking jokes. Her 3 backup guys were phenomenal and played off of her very well (they would end up being the saving grace of her later performances) I always loved her quirks, I mean she had a four foot beehive, she was odd, but historically, being odd makes for a great performer. Watching her decline was devastating. I’m a huge fan.
