Miley Cyrus tweeted that her time at VH1 Divas last night was the “BEST MOMENT OF MY ENTIRE LIFE!” Pretty strong words but, you know, she’s got all those teenage emotions raging inside of her and sometimes they just gotta come out. We chatted with the starlet on the red carpet just before she went [...]
Paula Abdul Declares Liza Minelli The Next American Idol
As we watched the VH1 Divas show broadcast from the Brooklyn Academy of Music and caught a whiff of the fact that Ms. Liza Minelli was in the audience, we almost peed our pants with excitement.

VH1 Divas Backstage: Jennifer Hudson Talks About Being A Diva And Mom
Jennifer Hudson has proven her Diva status a hundred times over, with her Oscar winning performance in Dreamgirls and her powerhouse voice, but still, humble Jennifer can’t believe, “I’m here and one of the Divas.” With a five-week-old baby, Jennifer says her world has changed and she now “…sees everything through brand new eyes.” WE [...]
VH1 Divas Backstage: Jordin Sparks Is Super Fierce Onstage
Confession: We just recently hopped on the Jordin Sparks bandwagon after we heard “Battlefield” earlier this summer and then danced around Brooklyn for a month with it blasting on our iPod. Her latest single “S.O.S” is catchy and addictive (it samples that early ’80s classic “Let the Music Play” by Shannon), in that ‘I wanna [...]
VH1 Divas Backstage: Miley Is All Smiles In Rehearsals
Let’s just get real here people: Miley Cyrus has the summer jam of 2009 in her pocket, and the 16-year-old starlet may or may not be belting it out in a few short hours here at VH1 Divas. Lucky for you we’ve got a clip of her rehearsal that just went down, and we suspect [...]
VH1 Divas Backstage: Adele Says “Being A Diva Is About Being Nice”
One of the highlights of our day was getting to hang with Adele. We chatted with the Brit about her super-fast rise to stardom and checked out pics of her new puppy on her Blackberry (he was left at home as he’s still too young to travel). The singer is relatively new to fame; she [...]
VH1 Divas Backstage: Kelly Clarkson Kills It In Rehearsal
We were lucky enough to watch Kelly Clarkson rehearse for “VH1 Divas” today at BAM, and we were totally floored by what we saw. Literally. We fell on the floor. The down-to-earth diva belted out a song off her new album (peep the clip to figure out the tune) and sounded absolutely amazing. If her [...]
VH1 Divas Backstage: Paula Works It Onstage
We caught Paula Abdul rehearsing her opening number for VH1 Divas, let us be the first to say it: she’s still got it. With all the buzz surrounding Abdul it’s easy to forget that her roots are in dance, but watch one second of her onstage and it all comes rushing back. Her moves are [...]
Mariah Rules Our Divas Vault Countdown
Last week, we asked you to dig in our Divas Vault and tell us what your favorite classic Divas performances are. Well, you told us all right and it mostly sounded like this: “Mariah! Mariah! Mariah!” We knew she had some loyal fans, but damn — we had no idea that our little countdown would [...]

Kate here from VH1′s The FABlife, reporting backstage from the Divas rehearsals.
