I'm a big fan all the ones listed plus the two I added except Barbra and Diana. Mariah definetly has the complete complete diva package as far as I'm concerned. She's got the voice, the clothes, the attitude, and she buys crazy expensive stuff for no reason | |

People use the word Diva so loosely now and days.
These artists ARE Divas: It takes alot more than popularity to be a Diva.
Aretha Franklin Barbara Streisand Diana Ross Donna Summer Madonna Cher Celine Patti Janet Jackson Whitney Houston Chaka Khan
edit: Mariah and I will come back and do my list for each one later [Edited 12/27/12 7:32am] | |

Hey someone had to be ironic, so I threw in Latoya, I don't think I would put her in my top 100 artists though | |

yes, i love the pop diva's. as i call them mostly.. hehe
Madonna is my no. 1! but i love them all really. but i think i prefer male/bands more, if i make a top 20 favorite artists, it will be mostly (male) bands. but Madonna is my no. 1 and she is a pop diva so.. and my second favorite female artist, and also in my top 20 favorite artists... Kylie Minogue!! love almost all of them. especially the ''newer'' ones too. like P!nk, Shakira, Gaga, Marina & The Diamonds (bit unknown but still), Robyn (same as Marina, but all pop music), Beyoncé, Lana Del Rey... etc. and oldies ofcourse Diana Ross, Donna Summer, Cher, Tina, Janet...etc
but i don't like Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Barbara Streisand etc. | |

Let me ask some of yall (serious question).... What is a Diva to YOU? Because it seems that people are just posting their favorite female artists Thats okay but I dont know what definition of Diva yall are going by. | |

I always thought that the term "diva" meant something negative. I used to see it describing women (and sometimes men) who were difficult to work with like Bette Davis or Joan Crawford. So I don't see how it's related to just someone being a singer, unless the singer is self-important. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

NO, I (and most people ) used the word "diva" in the sense of musical goddess ... | |

Thats kinda what I thought as well
But I guess people have their own opinion of the word based on these opinions | |

There is Whitney.
Then there's everybody else.
Deal with it. | |

I always thought that, too, but then I looked it up online, and 'diva' is defined as a female pop singer.

Diva is a loosely based term that has two different meanings: diva meaning prima donna bitch and diva meaning powerful and sassy female singer.
I'm personally getting tired of many of the "divas" and only listen to Chaka, Aretha, Phyllis, Whitney and Diana in terms of the "divas". Stopped listening to the others mentioned recently. Listen to Donna on occasion though. | |

I used to ask everyone if they actually knew what it meant too after pop up video defined it a mere two decades ago but it's still a fun topic for what it is
