The word 'diva'

I'm willing to bet that 99% of the people who use it have NO IDEA what it actually means.

By their reckoning, the really cunty girl who works on the fag counter in Tesco is a DIVA. NO, she's a wanker; they're not the same thing.
 
If every contestant last night were given a number and put in order based on their performance, with 1 being the highest and 16 (SIXTEEN!?!) being the lowest, Nicolo would be about 6. They were all actually shite
 
I hate how it's become such a slur like. Last night, Nicolo was not a diva. Mary, on the other hand, was pretty damn close to it.
 
It's going to be one of those X Factor words/phrases that gets trotted out all the time alongside relevant, million percent, note perfect and Cheryls 'thoroughly enjoyed that'.

They used diva a lot last year, but this year is getting silly and we've only had one live weekend.
 
The constant use of the word annoys me.

Proper divas are divas because they have they have been successful enough to warrant the title and right to act like one.

Rocking up to an audition, acting like a dick and wailing like Whitney doesn't make you a diva.

They've not even sold any records yet!
 
Totally, being a 'diva' is turning up two hours late to a performance because your dressing room hasn't been filled with doves, rose petals and £300 a bottle mineral water flown in by helicopter from the alps.

Obviously after selling millions of records and sell out tours. Not having a tantrum/pulling your face because you got a few boos at an audition for a talent show or answering back someone who is judging your performance. That's not 'diva' like it's just called having an attitude problem.
