Great thread idea G Snap!
 I hear the word Diva a lot, I have been called one many times, especially recently. I always hope that it is in the Stud/Diva sense, but am not sure lol.  I think it can be used pretty differently, like 'wow you are a Diva" is so different than "wow, you are being a Diva". lol. Working in entertainment and casting I have learned to tread softly around anyone who uses the word "Diva" in their email address. We cast for ensemble shows on ships and everyone we have cast in a show who self identifies as "Diva" does not do well getting along smoothly with other cast members and what is expected of them. If the email adress is anything like "mad-dogDiva@....." we do not cast them. lol It actually freaks me out to be called a Diva.

In Italy, in the sixteenth century opera and on...the composer always wrote the music to match a particular Diva's emotional temperment. Opera is nothing without the Diva.As in a successful show today, you put together a show with the music to match that particular Diva's temperment. You have to study the Diva closely. Donna Summer and Madonna had two distinct temperments.

I consider myself to be a diva goddess type femme even when I'm covered in mud and chicken shit. Diva goddess is a state of mind

I'm distictly tempermental and I definitely like to call the shots, run the show and be waited on
. The shows where I work with are commercial, not art...we cater to the temperament of our audience. A true Diva in the musical sense is an artist, a goddess.

When I think of Diva as a noun - my mind first turns to high drag: flamboyant, meticulously feminine, be-dazzled, over the top, star-of-the-show drag queens.
When I think of diva as an adjective - it conjures the synonyms: high maintenance, demanding, difficult, must-be-the-centre-of-attention type descriptors.
