Nicks’ response was as follows: “She brings the funny. And the funny is very, very important,” Nicks explained. “And that is what is, to me, besides her beautiful songs and her beautiful presence, the fact that she’s such a comedienne, and she just makes us all laugh is, to me, the most precious part of the whole thing.
