Kudos to Kelly and Ciara for landing such a high-profile gig ahead of very important releases for them both. We certainly look forward to the other names that’ll be added as the show draws nearer. Brandy? Monica? Christina Aguilera?

      Yess this is great promo for kelly congrats 🙂

  2. the real xoxo November 8, 2012

    Stop trying to make Ciara happen, shes not going to happen!

    • Sleazy November 8, 2012

      She’s not gonna happen? B**** she done happened already Multi plat artist #1 album single and numerous top 10 hits Billboard woman of the year. Grammy etc and Super talented Your Rihanna loving ass should stop worrying bout ciara and get your fav that #1 album and a TALENT

      • the real xoxo November 8, 2012

        yes i know i loved ciaras first 2 albums and even liked fantasy ride! but in all honesty she is soo 2006.

    • ynow November 8, 2012

      VH1 is so SAD! They couldnt get beyonce, brandy or christina or monica so they go with SUBPAR weak ass singers LOL! That line up is COMPLETE and UTTER FAIL!!

      • rh November 9, 2012

        why always hating gosh dont act like ciara cant cant perform u will deal

    • #kellyrowland November 11, 2012

      Kelly just keeps landing these gigs tho snd her vocals have been on point

  3. Jay November 8, 2012

    There are no diva’s in 2012

    • Jeff November 8, 2012

      This will guarantee the lowest viewer figured ever. Where my divas at? I’m not here for Miley’s transformation into a R&B/pop artist, Ciara’s limp vocals, I think Kelly and Jordin might bring it but I’m hardly excited.

      • prettigurlrockD bitchess November 8, 2012

        Miley’s voice def does not fit rnb. Anyway this list is a BORE. Ciara and Kelly are def mediocre vocalists. Although that tribute Kelly did for MC’s honor was pretty good BUT couldn’t they get actual GOOD singers like Brandy, Christina, Alicia (even tho i’m not that big a fan) and Monica?? and the biggest diva of this generation, BEYONCE? I’m disappointed. Also the real singers and divas should have demanded to be on the show.

    • uknowhat November 8, 2012

      ARE u kidding me? This list is BEYOND LAME!!!!!! This has to be the worst! I wont be wasting time watch that s***

    • BABY T November 9, 2012

      Your so right! The REAL DIVAS (Beyonce and Lady Gaga) are on a break!

      • rh November 9, 2012

        ciara is a deal and you will deal . OKAY THANKS

    • #kellyrowland November 11, 2012

      Accept for kelly that b**** is a diva 🙂

  4. tribalJudas November 8, 2012

    will only watch for Adam Lambert, a shame that he isn’t performing considering he’s the only diva in that mud of singers!

    • gee November 8, 2012

      so why isnt he selling any records??

      • Simona November 8, 2012

        I think because he doesnt have enough radio airplay and most of the people dont accept the fact that he is gay and they should realize that what really matters is his talent and his amazing voice ,not his personal life

      • CeeJaye November 8, 2012

        If his personal life doesn’t matter, then he shouldn’t have bothered to tell people he was gay in the first place and should have opted to just sing his song instead.

        Adam Lambert is weird, that’s why people don’t get into him.

    • NewF*YorkBabe. November 9, 2012

      First openly gay singer to get a Billboard #1 Album! he’s got a different sound in the beige that is currently our music scene (RiRi where you at).

      • Simona November 9, 2012

        Its sad that the people dont get into him.He is a very good singer unlike others.

    • #kellyrowland November 11, 2012

      Kelly is the only talented singer out of the bunch.. i cant wait to see ciara tho too

      • Simona November 11, 2012

        Adam Lambert is very talented too.I cant wait to see him performing

    • #kellyrowland November 11, 2012

      I can see why kelly is on the list

  5. SHUH November 8, 2012

    What a s*** line-up. “DiVA’S” and you’re giving me s*** like Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato. Not to mention Jordin Sparks has barely a singing career, and well Ciara hardly has a foot to stand on at the moment. Nobody cares for her like they did

    • #kellyrowland November 11, 2012

      Kelly is going to slay and jordin too thats all i wanna see

  6. Spunkypoop November 8, 2012

    WHY ISN’t THE LEGENDARY JANET JACKSON WHO IS THE QUEEN OF DANCE POP BEING HONORED BY THIS ACADEMY. SMDH! KELLY IS the modern day DONNA and CIara is the modern day JANET.

    • notsuoh November 8, 2012

      Janet was already honored. ICON they gave her a whole show on MTV

    • Candid November 8, 2012

      Because Janet doesn’t have a diva voice. She’s a “la-di-da” singer, but can’t bring the roof down or sing anyone off stage. And being a diva is about voice, not dance.

      • NewF*YorkBabe. November 9, 2012

        @Candid. Agreed. Still LOVE Janet, but she doesn’t fit the “diva” … however she does fit that title more the MILEY or CIara I mean WHAT are they thinking??? Miley is already a has been (took notes from her father career).

        Kelly Rowland is the only Diva in this Line up. Kelly is DIVA. Her album promo is always wack, but look at her singles, her soft yet powerful voice. Woman’s got hits. She’ll be your ‘COMMANDER’ when your soul is ‘STOLE’, thank god there’s no ‘DILEMMA’. cause she’s ‘DOWN FOR WHATEVER’ with a hella lot of ‘MOTIVATION’, It’s ‘LIKE THIS’ especially “WHEN LOVE TAKES OVER’.

  7. pat November 8, 2012

    CICI is going to slay the stage.

  8. SheDaisy November 8, 2012

    BRANDY Needs the promo!! get on it!!

    • Twhist November 8, 2012

      She sure does need it badly

      • Chile…. November 8, 2012

        I hope you guys know they have to choose Brandy… Brandy can’t go to VH1 and say I wanna perform at your show… she has to be invitied to perform. Ciara & Kelly will do great I know this. Jennifer Hudson would be perfect doing a tribute to Whitney. Kelly to Donner Summers & Ciara to Janet Jackson.

      • uknowhat November 8, 2012

        Brandy team probably saw this list and PASSED on this appearance! She is WAYYYY above this lame ass list of non-singers why wud she perform on a show that NO ONE is going to watch? Glad she isnt involved in this S***** WEAK ass line up….. Good decision by her team !

    • ASIPOFBRANDY November 15, 2012

      First off Brandy already did this show in 1998 along with Whitney and Faith Hill so she doesn’t need to be on this!

  9. Lebo(CaribbeanBOi) November 8, 2012

    YESS @ MISS KELLY … WORKKK !!!!!!!!!!

  10. Austyn King November 8, 2012

    When Is Beyoncé gonna get her VH1 DIVA opportunity like the legends cuz these last few diva shows are so unflattering and disgusting!

  11. CCFan007 November 8, 2012

    yesss go CIARA! now you can show your vocability to shut the haters up!! im sure they will give you a donna summer song to do kelly and jordan will def do whitney

    • Chile…. November 8, 2012

      lol…. SHADE

  12. Quiana November 8, 2012

    I. Like ciara I honestly don’t care what haters say because they have nothing better to do with their lives and congrats kelly and ciara

  13. Tee tee November 8, 2012

    I. Like ciara I honestly don’t care what haters say because they have nothing better to do with their lives and congrats kelly and ciara

  14. Auntie_Jackie November 8, 2012

    Great line-up.

  15. notsuoh November 8, 2012

    WHERE THE F*** IS BRANDY????? SHES THE ORIGINAL VH1 DIVA AND IS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN DELIVER A WHITNEY TRIBUTE ACCURATELY!!!!

  16. Sleazy November 8, 2012

    Ciara slayed black Girls Rock!!!!!!!!!!! I’m so Ready for this! You h*** should be happy talented people has been chosen unlike the VMAs EMAs same people every year and half of them have no talent DEAL

    • Jeff November 8, 2012

      She slayed in your opinion.

    • uknowhat November 8, 2012

      CIara was the WEAKEST of a list of great performers on Black girls Rock, She was def not up to par. ive no idea y u wud say she slayd? like WTF were u lookn at?

  17. MB92 November 8, 2012

    I can’t wait to see Ciara; She’s the best PERFORMER/ENTERTAINER (lol) on the line up. Beyonce should’ve been there to pay tribute to Donna Summers since one of her hits samples one of her songs

  18. EdwardPonton November 8, 2012

    Kelly always deliver at shows like these. Can’t wait to see what her and Ciara has in store, I know they both gone shut that s*** down.

  19. gio88 November 8, 2012

    they will do their own singles or just tribute whitney and donna summer??

  20. williNalli November 8, 2012

    Yessssssssssss Kelly!!! 🙂

  21. AmbeRussell November 8, 2012

    Am I the only 1 looking at this list and smdh??? This is a very lack luster set of performers. Sorry, but for a whitney tribute, the best u can get are kelly rowland, ciara, miley, demi lovato, and jordin sparks? I see its the dance musi of them both, but why not make it dance and honor madonna and janet as well if your not gonna honor whitney properly as a vocalist. But good for them for getting different ppl. And any1 screaming where beyonce, she need not perform no more until the super bowl and she already did divas 03 or 04
    AmbeRussell onn youtube

    • OMG November 8, 2012

      Is janet dead? thank you

  22. TODD November 8, 2012

    The Better Add Brandy and Monica and Christina Because at this point they dont have any Veterans other than Kelly…Vocally Demi will bring it but that’s about it…Give us a little more…..BRANDY…….

    • prettigurlrockD bitchess November 8, 2012

      I like Demi. She has a good voice but she really shouts too much!

  23. ,. November 8, 2012

    Nice line up.

  24. tits mcgee November 8, 2012

    Who the hell is demi lavato?
    Whatevs, haven’t watched this show since the ’90’s, when real divas reigned. >>>>>>>>>>>>

    • Candid November 8, 2012

      Really. Isn’t Demi Lavato some t*** disney singer or something? I see her name pop up from time to time, but couldn’t hum the tune to one of her songs if my life depended on it.

  25. RoyalKev November 8, 2012

    Demi and Miley? Really????

    These’s Vh1 Divas shows are slowly becoming disgraceful.

    Now where is the Janet tribute? It’s a dance party and there’s no Janet tribute?… Ooooo,K! This is the elephant in the room that will be the biggest shame of the night.

    I am glad to see Jordin covering Whitney, they could have easily scheduled the overused Jennifer Hudson for that. This one I have no complaints about.

    I do wish Brandy was a part of it! Monica could get in on the action too!

    Ciara is definitely going to have my full attention. It should have been a no-brainer to assign her to do something for Janet though.

    http://www.thepagewithroyalkev.com

  26. Hilly November 8, 2012

    I was expecting divas! I like most of them but come on VH1 there are no divas!

  27. PrettigurlrockD Bitchess November 8, 2012

    Where is beyonce’s name? I guess they are inimidated by fierceness. There’s no way, as much as I love her, Miley should have been there over beyonce.

  28. Dexxx November 8, 2012

    All they need is Frank Ocean lmao

    • Acem November 8, 2012

      I bet his hair, make up and dress would put all the other girls to shame.

  29. Porcelain Doll November 8, 2012

    Looks like a snooze fest. Sorry!

  30. lulu November 8, 2012

    I’m without words for how D-list this is… First of all I was under the impression that this was an entire DIVAS special dedicated to the legendary WHITNEY ELIZABETH HOUSTON. She is due for her version of “ICON.” I can’t I just can’t…

    WHere is the tribute to Whitney from artist like Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Pink, Brandy, Monica, Carrie Underwood, Kelyl Clarkson, Fantasia Jill Scott, Mariah Carey etc…. (I’d throw J. Hud in there too but I think I can do without a Whitney tribute from her for a while, hell give me Leona Lewis even though she hasn’t had a hit in a while). I need a VOICE to tribute THE VOICE, I can’t with Ciara, Miley, Kelly, etc.. Miley Cyrus? And hell no to Adam Lambert..

    Also, if this is anything about recognizing dance I co-sign…If Janet ain’t involved I am not interested..

    • Simona November 8, 2012

      Adam Lambert has the best voice of all of that line up but I think he wouldnt perform , just hosting

    • gio88 November 8, 2012

      please kelly is not inferior to brandy and considering her dc past and her voice/career shes deserves respect!she haven’t to be compared to miley , demi or ciara.you should watch hjer tribute to Mariah or Whitney , and then we can talk.

      • Jeff November 8, 2012

        Why does she deserve respect? Yes a seasoned period with a group, an array of ropey vocal performances, mediocre albums. I not here for sales, but you gotta give me a good album and decent live vocals and I’m yet to get the “whole package” from Miss Rowland

      • Chile…. November 8, 2012

        @ Jeff

        Lets not talk about GREAT ALBUMS!!!! Kellys 1st and 2nd albums were both great as well as Here I Am. She was underappreciated for making quality music and no one payed attention to it. Her 2nd album was her BEST ALBUM of all three… it was down the lines of Brandy’s 2/11 album but again she was unappreciated! Don’t get mad at Kelly cause your fave is not performing on the show! Kelly is definitely a Diva in her own way! She deserves her props… she will start making the music she really wants once she gets a solid and big enough fan base thats gonna support her music regardless of what she decides to put out.

      • ynow November 8, 2012

        @gio88, boi SIT IT down with that ish! Kelly has NO talent when compared to Brandy’s history and vocals. Your comment is pure hilarious!! Her only success came as a fukn BACKUP SINGER, lets b real….She is Mediocre at best! Boring performer and used s** to sell singles….

      • lulu November 8, 2012

        Kelly is not on brandy’s level. Her success with DC is attributed to one WOMAN and one WOMAN only her name is Beyonce. Beyonce and her back-up singers… When Kelly has a 13 week #1 running single, moves multi-platinum albums on HER OWN then i will consider it,but even then commercial and industry success aside she is an average vocalist nothing to write home about. Brandy’s commercial clout may be fading but she is still being cited as a vocal influence after nearly 20 years in the game something Kelly will never be. Whitney a VOCALIST should be tributed by people who are VOCALISt and recognized for that as well. Just cuz “Motivation” went top 20 on the hot 100 does not mean Kelly is anything to write home about. I’ve seen her Mariah tribute she’s not a bad vocalist she is just okay and OKAY doesn’t cut it for me.

    • prettigurlrockD bitchess November 8, 2012

      Why is adam lambert there? His voice is good but isn’t he a dude?? Divas are dudes??

      • Simona November 8, 2012

        He doesnt have just a good voice, he has a great voice and he will host

  31. Rashae November 8, 2012

    this lineup sucks with the exception of Ciara and Kelly Rowland but why isn’t brandy on here, She’s killing it right now #oh yeah Two Eleven in stores now!!!!!

    • gee November 8, 2012

      two eleven is flopping.

      • Jeff November 8, 2012

        Does it mean its not good?

      • ynow November 8, 2012

        Uhh last i checked 211 was still in top 10 if Rnb albums on billboard so its not Flopin thank you kindly…

  32. Ernest November 8, 2012

    One question! Where are the DIVAS ?

  33. An0thrDream November 8, 2012

    Ciara and Kelly!!!!! My two favs! This shows going to be HOT!!

  34. islandboi242 November 8, 2012

    Kelllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! BOOK THEM SHOWS N SHOW THEM

  35. Girrrl November 8, 2012

    That list is a joke. Whitney and Donna deserve better.

  36. Jay4Kelly November 8, 2012

    To all those disrespecting Kelly,especially Brandy fans.I suggest you go and youtube Kelly singing Greatest love of all and Fantasy.If Brandy can do that then we`ll talk.Now I remember,Kelly also tributed Whitney with How will I know and so did Brandy,Kelly did it killed it and Brandy reminded me why whitney is called “The Voice”.Kelly`s voice is versatile,Brandy`s voice is not versatile but its unique.My point is Kelly`s voice is more suited for a whitney Houston type of song than Brandy`s voice will ever be.

    • RoyalKev November 8, 2012

      Why are you bringing Brandy stans into this and claiming that they’re disrespecting Kelly? I think everyone is off that by now. There’s a few people that don’t care for Brandy and Kelly. It’s only their opinion, that’s not something you should link back to an entire group. That Monstarebel person brings up Brandy’s name in so many post, it doesn’t mean that he speaks for others. I just wanted to point that out, since you’re going into this big comparison between Bran & Kel. Let’s be done with all the hate!

      http://www.thepagewithroyalkev.com

      • thetruth November 8, 2012

        @RoyalKev

        Lets not pretend like these aren’t Brandy fans on here going in on Kelly! They always do!!!

  37. xedos November 8, 2012

    Vh1 doing it on the cheap. they get all these z list artist because they can pay them on the cheap.

  38. cocobutta November 8, 2012

    OH lord how this show has gone downhill!!!!

    DIVAS used to mean something and they DARE to put these.

    I actually like a few of the artist BUT THERE ARE NO DIVAS!!!!!

    VH1 NEEDS TO GO SLEEP!!!

    Diva and Diva vocalist need to be on: Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, J Hud, Brandy (now has diva swag), Monica, Beyonce etc…

    Why the hell did Janet Jackson get snubbed back in the day????
    Answer: Because as great as she is/was the vocals wasn’t VH1 Divas was quite up to par!!!

    Now any ol person can get on this (what used to be respected) show.

  39. Monstarebel (RihannaNavy & TeamMinaj) November 8, 2012

    Ewwww I’m not watching the END!

  40. Monstarebel (RihannaNavy & TeamMinaj) November 8, 2012

    Ciara? Kelly? & Hannah Montana? Really Vh1 i can’t with y’all I’d rather see gaga Adele Beyonce or Leona Lewis not these flop b******

  41. izzy November 8, 2012

    So I’m guessing that list floating around was fake :/ Kelly can def do Donna! But who can do whitney?! Tuh I guess…imma watch and judge lol!

  42. Twhist November 8, 2012

    MONICA KILLED THE WHITNEY TRIBUTE ON BET WHEN SHE SLAYED “I LOVE THE LORD” I knew after Monica sang her face off she would def be considered. Hopefully they’ll had Monica and a few other real singing Divas Whitney helped mold…

  43. Kayla November 8, 2012

    Ciara-blah
    Jordin-who?
    Kelly-YES!
    Miley-half of you b****** don’t listen to her and SWEAR you know what her voice is like. Smh. #judgemental Let me say she’s releasing new music this month, I mean she has been working with pharel, la Reid, red one exc..big time people who assist 93% of the people y’all listen to today.
    Demi-clearly she can do R&B! Listen to her songs “Lightweight” “Who’s That Boy” and “My Love Is Like A Star”.

  44. EdwardPonton November 8, 2012

    The irony of flop ass bloggers calling celebrities flops. Lol y’all funny AF

  45. B_STANNING(OBAMA YAS) November 8, 2012

    not real divas cus i dont see Beyonce

  46. @sweetboyfrazer November 8, 2012

    I’m looking forward to seeing Kelly Rowland and Jordin Sparks

  47. Chillin November 8, 2012

    Kelly will slay Donna Summers!! There is no other who can do better

  48. thetruth November 8, 2012

    The line up should be:

    Kelly: Perform new single/ Donna Summers tribute
    Ciara: Perform new singles/ Janet Jackson tribute
    Jennifer Hudson: Whitney Houston tribute
    Jordan Sparks: Whitney Tribute/Sparkle song
    Demi Lovato: Perform her song
    Miley Cyrus: Perform her song
    Christina Augilera: Perform new song/tribute w/ JHud
    Alicia Keyes: Perform new singles/ group tribute
    Taylor Swift: Perform new singles

    People have to realise that they want people who is current/popular in music and been doing well the past few yrs.

    • ynow November 8, 2012

      uuh where the Fk did u get this erroneous list??? that list is NOT GONE HAPPEN FOOL LOL

      • thetruth November 8, 2012

        Why wouldn’t it happen??? All these women have done VH1 Divas b4 accept Taylor Swift! So STFU!!!

      yass that was cute

  50. KERI HILSON’S OLD LACERONT FOUND IN WENDY’s PARKING LOT November 8, 2012

    Remember when there were REAL divas performing at these shows and it was a REAL event that people ACTUALLY looked forward? I’m talking Shania, Mariah, Aretha, Celine, Gloria, etc. I like Ciara and Kellandria, but they’re not divas yet. I could see Kelly becoming a diva, but not Ciara.

    • KERI HILSON’S OLD LACERONT FOUND IN WENDY’s PARKING LOT November 8, 2012

      Oh, and Tina Turner and Elton (and they both had big diva meltdowns)

  51. Acem November 8, 2012

    What a list of hacks. You know something is wrong when Kelly Rowland and Jordin Sparks are basically the headliners. If this were a real show with real guests, those two would be the extra’s.

    I remember when these VH1 Diva specials used to spotlight iconic female singers who had class, sophistication and could tear the roof off the joint vocally? Now it’s become teeny-bopper D-list. Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato?! Seriously…?

  52. King. November 8, 2012

    Biiiitch, whaaaaaat!?!?!?

  53. DIGGER BEY November 8, 2012

    Really VH1???? Miley is no Diva! Demi has a so so voice but shes no Diva! Jordan can sing and has the voice but shes no Diva! Ciara can b a Diva but she dont have a voice! Now Kelly is the closest thing to a Diva! She has a voice, she has that strong personality and really great stage presence! Every year VH1 comes up with so call Divas, that will ruin the word Diva. The Divas between 98 – 2003 are the true real Divas! 2008 – now are fake Divas. I mean…majority of those womens are pop tarts! Kelly is the only one out of those so call Divas, thats an Diva but not on Whitney, Aretha Diva level. Hopefully they will b adding some Divas with a Voice! #GET IT TOGATHER VH1

    People r constantly bashing Ciara & Kelly about promoting there music but when they finally get the chance on a major network and show ppl bash them for performing at an even when they were invited to perform! Makes no sense!!! The only reason y sum ppl could be upset by this is if there favorite artist is not performing… all these women r talented and Divas in there own right. People need to stop comparing the old divas of today to those of the past! It is a new generation!

    Ciara is not a singer… Divas is about singers.. Janet was never on divas, Madonna etc.. We don’t want an amazing dance performance to a lipped track so I don’t see why Cici is there. I love you Ci but you’re not really fit for this category.. neither is Demi or Miley Cyrus.. Kelly Rowland nailed the mariah carey BET tribute and Jordin nailed hers to Whitney, so I think they will be good. Do you realize the divas line up was once; Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Brandy, Whitney Houston, Mary J Blige, Chaka Khan, Destinys Child, Diana Ross, Faith Hill, Gloria Estefan, Carol King… All vocal/musical icons and now- this.. OH HELL NO! They might as well add Rihanna and nicki Minaj on their too, they “sing” lmfao #Fail

      DIVA IS MORE THAN ONE THING, DANCING ETC , CIIARA CAN SING

    I literally LMAO at this line up…The definition of a DIVA has taken on an all new meaning…

      F*** U CIARA IS A DIVA , DONT PLAY HER

    This is the kind of exposure that the beautiful ms kelly needs and deserves. However imust say the line uo is really s***** but i think kelly has proven that she cover songs well so we will see if she can continue with her live vocals. Now thisbis a show for divas and i agree with kelly is the one close to being a diva since she was given the award for rising icon from essencr magazine plus she has it all. Im not undeestanding miley or demi but i guess kelly can just use thisbopportunity to shine just like she did at the bet awards 11

    Oh my what flop ratings this show is going to have. They’re all flop singers lol. They need hugely successful female artists like Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Rihanna and Taylor Swift, and artists with unique voices like Brandy.

      STFU YOU ALWAYS SAY SOMETHING GOING TO FLOP BUT IT DONT. U WILL BE TUNED IT TO WATCH CIARA SO DEAL

  61. rh November 9, 2012

    Lmao Ciara is no Real Diva! There no such thing as past divas and new generation divas! These bishes aint no Diva! The past divas are the real divas! Like i said, Kelly is the only one close to being a Diva. U have a supreme voice to even b considered one! U must command stages when performing and have that famous ” im not to b played with attitude. On and off the stage. Miley hell no! Ciara no! Demi has a voice but no! Jordan has the voice but no! Kelly is the only one. Shes no vocal beast but has a Voice! She also command stages! And have that famous snap bac attitude. Being a dancer doesnt qualify u as a diva. Ciara is a dance diva but no musical diva. These people on here must b 10 years old, to even say Ciara is a diva. These divas will get sanged off the stage, up against 1998 – 2003 Divas!
