Great thread idea G Snap!
I hear the word Diva a lot, I have been called one many times, especially recently. I always hope that it is in the Stud/Diva sense, but am not sure lol.
I think it can be used pretty differently, like 'wow you are a Diva" is so different than "wow, you are
being a Diva". lol.
Working in entertainment and casting I have learned to tread softly around anyone who uses the word "Diva" in their email address. We cast for ensemble shows on ships and
everyone we have cast in a show who self identifies as "Diva" does not do well getting along smoothly with other cast members and what is expected of them. If the email adress is anything like "mad-dogDiva@....." we do not cast them. lol
It actually freaks me out to be called a Diva.
