Sooo DIVA…VH1 Divas

Posted by Mona-Elisa on September 27, 2009

The word “Diva” is now usually used to mean a negative characteristic of a women with great needs, but what has happened to using the word to identify great singing and performance capabilities?

Last Thursday, VH1 decided to continue the annual tradition of honoring women from different walks of life during VH1 Divas. The show honored the work of Jennifer Hudson, Jordan Sparks, Adele, India Aire, and Miley Cyrus. This group of five artists was an interesting and unexpected combination of 5 songstresses. India Aire has not been present in the media for some time, Miley Cyrus is still a Disney princess to me, and I didn’t even know who Adele was. Although my initial thoughts were such, my reservations about the Divas quickly changed after viewing their performances.

Adele and India Aire sang a great Duet, and Miley Cyrus to be honest was amazing! Very impressed by both Miley and Adele.

And now to the fashions of the evening. I was able to snap a few red carpet pics during the madness and I must say that my Red Carpet favs were by far Jordan Sparks and Toni Braxton. Both ladies looked absolutely amazing.

Now, the outfit the left me the most perplexed were those worn by Jennifer Hudson and India Aire. Jennifer seems to still be packing the baby. Of course she just recently gave birth, but I would have picked another dress for the Diva.
