[mtvn_player id="1728162" vid="1052188" autoplay="true"]

It's no secret that Sam Smith loves him a diva. But when it comes down to some of music's all-time greats, which otherworldy female singer does he know best?

To celebrate his love of the female artists who helped shape his musical tastes, we put our June You Oughta Know artist to the test with our very own Diva Quiz. Does Mariah Carey have more Grammy Awards than Beyoncé? Does Whitney Houston have the best-selling debut album for a female artist? Who was fortunate enough to work with Denzel Washington? And what can we do to score some of those butterfly wings?

Spread your wings and fly off into the video above, where we put Sam's strengths to the test. Think you know your divas better than we do? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
