It is frustrating to be a Black woman in the entertainment industry.
  • In December 2020, Dionne’s niece Brittani (who has also worked as Dionne’s social and branding director) revealed that Dionne herself writes all of her tweets on Twitter. In case, she is not, ‘DW Team’ is written on her tweets.
  • She would like Teyana Taylor to play her in a potential biopic if ever made.
  • In December 2020, Dionne also called out The Weeknd on Twitter to ask about the wrong spellings in his stage name. Dionne asked him, “Why? It’s not even spelled correctly?”
  • In December 2020, Dionne called out Chance the Rapper on Twitter and asked why has he put ‘the Rapper’ in his stage name if he obviously is a rapper. She also jokingly called herself ‘Dionne the Singer’ after that short conversation.
  • The title of her hit single, Don’t Make Me Over (meaning Don’t try to cheat me) was spoken by Dionne during a heated argument with songwriters Burt Bacharach and Hal David.
