American singer Mariah Carey is often described as an "ultimate diva" by the media for her musical ability as well as her demanding persona.[1][2][3][4]
Diva (/ˈdiːvə/, Italian:[ˈdiːva]) is the Latin word for a goddess. It has often been used to refer to a celebrated woman of outstanding talent in the world of opera, theatre, cinema, fashion and popular music. If referring to an actress, the meaning of diva is closely related to that of prima donna. Diva can also refer to a person, especially one in show business, with a reputation for being temperamental or demanding.
