* BrokenAesop: While Jess is correct that Diana doesn't have to be good at everything, she claims that Diana can't learn to become a good singer "because it's a natural talent". In reality, it certainly is possible to get better at singing over time through practice. Even the best singers in the world don't automatically get all the notes right without training their voices.
