Meghan Markle’s conversation with one of entertainment’s biggest “divas” took a deeper look at the word. During episode 2 of her podcast, the Duchess of Sussex and her guest, Mariah Carey, examined the complexities that come with being called a “diva” and how the GRAMMY-winning pop star has embraced it. When asked by the duchess what kind of connotation the word has, Carey explained that it’s “both” positive and negative, but she has embraced the glam in the term.
“I think it's both for me,” the “Honey” singer said. «I do because, I mean, I know the origin of the word. But then, I was growing up, like I said, my mom was talking about a friend or ‘something was so and so,’ it was very much that diva.” “I didn't know if that was bad good.
That's how she's built. Like, it's very much the grandeur of it all is what I envision. I was glad I bought the word glamorize and fabulous and whatever.
And then like, as things evolved, you know, the past I guess, whatever 20 years...it became like a diva for me,» she explained. “They mean, you're a successful woman usually. But also, and forgive me if we're not allowed to say the b-word but a B-I-T-C-H. Like, it's not OK for you to be a boss. It's not OK for you to be a strong woman, you know what I mean?” she added. At one point, Carey -- who has embraced the word on her own terms — took a moment to adorn the duchess with the title, who needed to know what diva qualities she saw in her. After talking about Carey’s infamous episode, Markle noted that the diva term is not something that she “connects to,” and Carey disagreed. “You give us diva moments sometimes, Meghan,” she quipped.
