A handsome male (new) operatic superstar went into the dressing room of a major female operatic soprano (the cream of the crop).

Great pals.

He was in the early rehearsals of a new production of an opera and was decidedly unhappy about it. He poured his heart out to her with her dressing room door wide open, obviously looking for advice.

When he was finished, the soprano, very warmly but very firmly, complete with her accent, said “Honey, I’m very sorry but first, you need to grow a pair… Now - Here’s what you do…” and with that, she got up and closed her dressing room door…much to the chagrin of numerous eavesdroppers.

He must have taken the advice - the production turned out to be a huge triumph. For Him and for Everyone.
