Top 20 Modern Day Divas

They showed us how to ‘Burlesque’, we watched them ‘Set Fire To The Rain’ and we did ‘twerk’ it, too.

Fame, power, style, wit.. What do these ladies have that makes them Modern Day Divas?

Modern day divas are people who exude great style and personality with confidence — they express  their own style and don’t give a f**k what other people think. See: Go-getter, Superstar, Independent woman

Whatever society chooses to define them, these women will continue to soar. And will do it with flair.

What do they have that others don’t? The answer to that may be vague, but one thing’s for sure. Every time these women have something up their sleeves, the internet blows up.

Beyonce

The Queen. This list is not in order but she deserves the top spot. Why? Because you tried singing ‘Love On Top’ too many times but admit it, no one can ever be half as good as the Queen Bey. To cite a few of her achievements, Beyonce sang the National Anthem at President Obama’s inauguration, performed a 15 minute super bowl half-time show, signed a $50 million endorsement deal with Pepsi, won a grammy and continue to be on the pedestal after all these years.

Why she’s a Diva: She sings songs of empowerment, earning her a great number of women fans who get inspiration from her to be strong and independent, exactly how she is. She rocks any kind of hairstyle and any outfit without being trashy and because who can perform a number in the Grammy’s soaked in water? Only Beyonce can.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry’s songs are addicting. Her songs California Gurls, Teenage Dream, Firework, E.T., Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) have sold a total amount of 25 million copies — no female artist has done that yet.

Why she’s a Diva: Katy Perry is the ultimate California girl. This good-girl from Santa Barbara has that girl next door vibe that fans love about her. Her live performances are the best. Her style is fabulous, sexy but not too much. And her hair! She has tried almost every rainbow colour on her hair and she looks gorgeous!

Adele

Adele is one fabulous diva. Awards love her — it just keeps coming like she’s some kind of magnet! The success of 21 earned mentions in the Guinness World Records since she is the first  to sell more than 3 million copies of an album in a year in the UK. Adele became the first artist in history to lead the Billboard 200 concurrently with three Billboard Hot 100 number-ones.

Why she’s a Diva: She doesn’t care what you think about her body. She loves food and hates exercise. She sports her own signature style that’s just so Adele and she rocks it.
