Meanwhile, in a recent interview, Cyndi revealed that she once turned down the chance to produce the late soul and jazz legend Etta James because she feared she’d ‘ruin her career.’

She recalled: ‘There was one time that Etta James came up to me and she wanted me to produce her. And I so wanted to, but because everybody kept telling me all the time that I will ruin everything.
‘I thought if I worked with her, I would ruin her career and I didn’t want to ruin her.’
She added: ‘I never followed through because I thought I would be the ruination of everyone. And so, I’m sorry now, but it happened.’
