Get the prima donna mug."Prima donna" refers to someone who is vain, arrogant, unreasonably, and difficult to work with. Unlike "diva" (which has largely replaced the older term), prima donna is more easily used for either gender. The term also implies that a prima donna is overrated due to an overestimated sense of self-importance. Many actors, professional sports stars, and musicians could be labeled prima donnas.
