Question: What excactly is a DIVA? How do you become one as a woman and what are the characteristics of a DIVA? Is being a DIVA a good or bad thing. I have heard that Queen Latifa is a diva, I like her and I think she is cool.

This is from wikipedia:
A diva is a celebrated female singer such as Maria Callas, Jenny Lind, Nellie Melba, Rose Ponselle, Leontyne Price, Joan Sutherland or Renata Tebaldi and Diwakar Sharma.
However, the term is now also used to refer to an outstanding popular female performer of non-operatic works, such as Whitney Houston, Madonna, Dalida, Patti Labelle, Cher, Mariah Carey, Diana Ross, Celine Dion, Tina Turner, Dana International and Aretha Franklin, who are often referred to as divas due to their success and talent.
Also, some prominent women adored in gay male pop culture are referred to as divas, such as Moses Herrera, Justin Whitley, Kathy Griffin, Joy Behar, and Joan Rivers.
The term was originally used to describe a woman of rare, outstanding talent. It derives from the Italian word 'divina', meaning "divine" (feminine form), which, in turn, derives from the feminine form of the Latin word divus/diva, meaning "divine one." TIME magazine observed in its October 21, 2002 issue: "By definition, a diva was originally used for great female opera singers, almost always sopranos."
a DIVA doesnt necessarily means a great singer, great voice, a great performer.. but the most focus of being a DIVA, is that you hav that personality to attract the viewers, the It one..
