diva
irritating buzzword used by major record labels and media outlets on a slow news day to describe female singers (songs of which are usually prepared by the same three writers) whose musical releases usually consist of the same generic pap and the mainstay of whose audience tends to be depressed housewives who fantasize that the lyrics are about them.
chanteuse is another such buzzword. It should be mentioned that the Canadian corporate media will not hesitate to use said word on front page, even if a bomb has gone off at the U.N. or leprosy has infected the British royal family, to describe irritating women singers such as celine dion, to promote such singers as proud embodiments of Canadiana, despite the fact that if the Canadian populace was forced to sit through a Celine Dion or shania twain concert, twenty percent of Canadians would attempt suicide.

Harry picked up a copy of today's Toronto Star. The small text adjacent to the page listing read "FERGIE 5TH LEPER VICTIM". This seemed like an interesting story...but as he flipped over the paper to read its headline he was confronted by a full-colour protrait of that Quebecois monstrosity with the headline in size-40 type: DIVA DION TOPS. He shook his head. Another slow news day.
Get the diva mug.
