5. Mariah Carey?
She's always seemed to be such a diva to me. And when I think Diva, I also think a word that rhymes with itch.

51. Took the words right off my keyboard
Great movie!

And that is not to denigrate any of the great opera divas: Caballe; Sutherland; Battle; Horne; OMG so many... and our very own misunderestimator.

21. Whitney Houston
I went to Arista's 15th anniversary concert in NYC in 1990, she was just one of the performers on a long list... I was fully expecting to snooze through her act... but it was one of the most memorable singing performances I've ever seen ... I was on my feet cheering with everyone else in Radio City Music Hall...
