Saving these responses for when Kelly slays your souls with her Donna and Whitney covers. Kelly will slay us all yet still continue to receive NO props b/c people are shady. |

I'm seeing "kelly" and "slay" together in the same sentence a lot in this thread, so I just thought I'd point out that Kelly Clarkson isn't an announced performer...

This would be a perfect platform for Janet Jackson to make a comeback into the musical scene and at the same time show a certain act who the boss and original is

Kelly,Demi & Jordin are fine. Those are the only 3 that can actually sing, and I'm pushing it with Demi. So maybe 2 and a half would be more accurate. But at least she can sing better than Ciara and Miley freaking Cyrus. I guess 3 1/2 can sing if you count Adam Lambert. |

I enjoy all of the performers so I'll watch but lol. Remember when the Diva's special was about HUGE personalities/talent. Aretha, Mariah, Celine, Shania, Beyonce, ect. Times sure are changing.
Oh and Kelly Rowland covering Donna is perfect.

where is Janet? she has never been on a divas and if this is dance divas she should definatly be there. Gloria should be there bc she has a new dance album out. J LO should be there. Cher should be there, since she has a new single out. Brandy would be a good addition. even Kesha would be good, since she is a dance artist. i dont understand any of these performers except for Ciara and Kelly Roland.

I'm seeing "kelly" and "slay" together in the same sentence a lot in this thread, so I just thought I'd point out that Kelly Clarkson isn't an announced performer...  The Kellys will both slay. I still expect that one of them won't nearly get the props she deserves for it, though. And if I get a Kelly C. and Melanie duet I might not live to see another day. where is Janet? she has never been on a divas and if this is dance divas she should definatly be there. Gloria should be there bc she has a new dance album out. J LO should be there. Cher should be there, since she has a new single out. Brandy would be a good addition. even Kesha would be good, since she is a dance artist. i dont understand any of these performers except for Ciara and Kelly Roland. I'd love Janet to be there for a Donna song, but really if VH1 is going to have her on Divas it should be as an honoree. I'd say the same for Cher. No to Ke$ha. Just because she's dance doesn't mean her sound was influenced by Donna or Whitney. I like K-Money but I do NOT want to hear her singing any Donna or Whitney. It's more than enough that I'll be sitting through Miley doing it. The Kellys, Ciara, Melanie, and Jordin all make sense. Miley and Demi don't to me, because I don't really hear any Donna or Whitney influence in their music. Of course, we know that has little to do with how these singers are selected. |

Sounds like too many performers, its hard to say who will really feature throughout the show. And pitbull/metric?! Odd choices.
At least Clarkson will be there to dominate in some fashion.

Gloria should be there bc she has a new dance album out. I love Gloria beyond all things, but no. The album came out over a year ago and bombed. |

This is the 3rd time Kelly has headlined VH1 Divas since its revival in 2009! So excited to see her perform  Some other good performers there as well. I'm not going to watch the whole show though, just watch the highlights/performances I care about. |

LOLZ at the new additions.   Ten days left until VH1 Divas airs live on Sunday, December 16 at 9 p.m. ET/8C. And 10 more performers and presenters have just signed on for what’s shaping up to be one hell of a party at L.A.’s Shrine Auditorium. Not only are Natasha Bedingfield, Bootsy Collins, Iggy Azalea, and past Divas alumna Keri Hilson and Ledisi adding to the set list of our current all-star roster, but La La Anthony, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Stacey Keibler, NeNe Leakes and Kelly Osbourne will be making appearances throughout the night! I can’t wait! Can we hope for a Natasha/Bootsy duet? Will Jenna will bring her “Sexiest Man Alive” hubby along? Will Kelly will diss the red carpet fashion? Of course, anything NeNe says is a ready-made tweet. Whatever happens, you’ll get the news here first. Don’t forget you can head over to Ticketmaster to purchase tickets to VH1 Divas if you want to have your world rocked in person. Check out the press release that just dropped into our sequined laps for more info. VH1 DIVAS ADDS NATASHA BEDINGFIELD, BOOTSY COLLINS, KERI HILSON, LEDISI and IGGY AZALEA AS PERFORMERS WITH APPEARANCES BY LA LA ANTHONY, JENNA DEWAN, STACEY KEIBLER, NENE LEAKES AND KELLY OSBOURNE Red Carpet to be LiveStreamed on DIVAS.VH1.com on Sunday, December 16 VH1 “DIVAS” Hosted by Adam Lambert Airs Live Sunday, December 16 at 9PM/8c NEW YORK, NY –December 6, 2012 – VH1’s popular franchise “VH1 Divas” announced today additional performers to join this year’s LIVE dance music tribute Natasha Bedingfield, Bootsy Collins, Keri Hilson, Ledisi and Iggy Azalea.

Beginning Monday, December 17, fans can view a curated red carpet highlights video on DIVAS.VH1.com. In the spirit of celebration and appreciation VH1Divas will include a tribute to two divas we lost this past year, whose voices always lead us straight to the dance floor, Whitney Houston and Donna Summer. “VH1 Divas” is bringing together Ciara, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Kelly Rowland and Jordin Sparks to pay homage to the greatest divas of dance music with performances featuring current and classic dance hits. Previous announced performers also include: Kelly Clarkson, Melanie Fiona, Metric and Pitbull along with Havana Brown as House DJ/artist.

Additional performers, presenters, special guests and sponsors will be announced as they are confirmed. Premiering on VH1 in 1998, “Divas” became synonymous with some of the most memorable, live, female vocal performances in television history. The show quickly became a highly anticipated annual phenomenon, generating speculation amongmusic fans and industry executives on who would be part of that year’s telecast. Last year, the “Divas” paid tribute to the great cities of Soul Music including: Chicago, Detroit, London, Memphis and Philadelphia with “Divas Celebrates Soul” featuring Mary J, Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Florence + The Machine, Jennifer Hudson, Jessie J, Chaka Khan, and Jill Scott.

Natasha needs to make up for that Donna tribute that the BMAs cut off  so ok to her, but umm...I'm almost starting to wish Kelly Clarkson hadn't agreed to grace Divas with her A-list presence this year. She's too good for this ratchetry. Still watching of course, because my below-z-list ass is not.  I didn't know Havana Brown was also a DJ. Well, I damn near don't know Havana Brown existed so w/e. Also agree that Brandy should be performing. How the hell you gonna give Keri Hilson a performance spot but Brandy is relegated to presenting? |
