Idol Divas-The First Time

[angelmiyakito]

I love Melinda... :D

[MHOLLYNC]

Kelly Clarkson was better than all of them put together I don't know why she wasn't in this video. OH maybe because she was WHITE. A DIVA can be any race not only black people

[blksung]

@MHOLLYNC "OH maybe because she was WHITE".......Because she WAS white, thats the only reason that b*tch won that season. Shut the hell up!!!

[MHOLLYNC]

@blksung It has nothing to do with color dummy...... Look at vocal ability she slaughtered the competition. Grow some ears

[blksung]

@MHOLLYNC I love it when muthaf*ckas grow a nutsack, sitting behind their damn computer screens. YOU brought race into this shyt, not me! "OH maybe because she was WHITE" (your words) Then turn around and say "it has nothing to do with race" (again, YOUR words) So, who is the dummy? Formulate a decent argument before you try to get at me bitch! BTW, KElly Clarkson still suck ass...and dick too

[blksung]

@MHOLLYNC "OH maybe because she was WHITE".......Because she WAS white, thats the only reason that b*tch won season one. Shut the hell up!!!

[SteelAVic18]

[Tiny1bme]

[SteelAVic18]

FANTASIA "Queen of the Idol Universe"

[aeo2608]

Paris Bennett should have been there too.

[CRanKedUp10]

All of them are good but Fantasia and Melinda are the only ones that actually stick out!!!!!!!!

[Ira0321]

Thanks for this video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[icecoldbruh]

so many divas were missed in this tribute...

[rockdiva888]

I LOVE Jennifer Hudsons voice and singing..but I realize why she lost the competition of American Idol..SHE wasn't herself..and they look for artist who can sing songs and make it their own...Jennifer looked like she lacked confidence and was trying to hard to "be what they were looking for"

[ChristianBoy16]

umm vonzell would kill over half of them divas!! smh

[tweetypiecutie]

i love jennifer and tasia

[macals]

i dont like how la toya belts out a note....j hud, steph and melinda are the good ones for me....

[tevin4731]

VONZELL!???

[kim24may]

i love Fantasia @ 2:28,Jennifer Hudson,Latoya London,and Melinda are my favs

[1ladylike]

vonzell solomom should be in the top five

[reccasheena]

Girl American Idol contestants based on vocals. 1. Tamyra Grey 2. Melinda Doolittle 3. Kelly Clarkson 4. Fantasia Barrino 5. La Toya London 6.Trenyce 7. Kimberly Locke 8. Jennifer Hudson 9. Lakisha Jones 10. Equoia Coleman 11. Mandisa 12. Karly Smithson 13. Kimberly Caldwell 14. Carrie Underwood 15. Diana Degarmo 16. Vonzell Solomon 17. Paris Bennett 18. Nadia Turner 19. Katherine Mcphee 20. Frenchie Davis 21. Jordin Sparks 22. Syesha Mercado

[abdul783]

Jordin Sparks at 21? You cant be serious!! She would def make top 10!!

[reccasheena]

she's just too young that time. 17 years old

[haderesc]

you forgot lakisha jones she is a great performer!

[haderesc]

what about vonzell she is also a diva!

[rithmalex2]

I love jordin <3

[bootz1912]

On top of Paris, Mandisa, & Syesha, u also forgot Vonzell!

[OTROZZ]

My fave is Fantasia becuz she puts her "everything" in her songs. I cry like a little baby. Melinda is probably the best singer. But Fantasia has the best delivering of songs.

[ChrisAtkinson93]

SYESHA MERCADO!

[marklulrich]

That was fun!Thank you for sharing. There have been WAY too many great Singers to fit them all in a 10 min vid. It was great to see and HEAR Melinda Doo'!! I LOVED her, and she was consistently Excellent! I Celebrate ALL these Women & those not on this vid who have given us years of great Entertainment. It does make me sad though to see that so many of them just didn't get a contract or never got to make an impact if lucky enough to make a CD. So much of it is right time place and people ya know

[powerpuffpuss]

Latoya Sucked...she didn't have that spark that Jennifer and Tasia has..

[mylast1stkiss]

Dang they forgot paris bennet and mandisa

[magicmallymal06]

Malinda killed the 1st time

[taleah2009]

Why dont any of the real singers ever win!!!!

[mahoganyma]

The quality of this video is very poor

[1606Dominic]

Its sad Latoya didnt win......because she is bi far, with Melinda Doolittle...... the best TECHNICAL SINGERS AI has ever had

[jojipinoy]

and also where is carrie underwood?? vonzell solomon?? diana degarmo?? kelly clarkson?? all the women here are all black.. hehehe

[jojipinoy]

you should have put vonzell solomon who is also great ^_^

[Seiya174]

Whered Trenyce!!

[rami22231]

i love you fantasia :D

[lomein495]

Loved the video but much love goes out to the missing few: Tamyra, Nadia, Mandisa...

[lalaleeka]

personally, i'd add kimberley locke and trenyce to that.

although, i don't think trency showed her potential of being a "diva" until late in the competition.

[Pux36]

FANTASIA was the BEST!!!

[jgjones4]

wheres tamyra gray? vonzell solomon? Lakisha Jones?

[dangelomister]

fantaisa i love you mama

[wbdiva504]

they have absolutely no singers like this on idol this season....i hope that girl lil gets through or else this season is gonna be full of fake kelly clarkson's and david cook's

[nelsonwalton]

u know whats funny is tht jordin sparks won but jennifer hudson is a million times more famous

[gomounties08]

they were in completely different seasons dear

[lalaleeka]

but they were made for the same output, honey.

[Schahin1990]

shes is the most talented person in this world! such an amazing singer and such a great actress! she is just jennifer hudson

[ajamaicanparadox1]

0mG First Time Ever I Saw Your Face!! That is my song.. (and that sounds like the Geroge Michael version if I'm not mistaken).. good job!

[turtlecheesecake123]

fantasia is the biggest joke. honestly..

[DRIVERSTV]

wheres

paris

[AnikaEilers]

Meiner Meinung nach ist Jennifer Hudson mit Abstand die beste bei American Idol,die Beste die jemals an diesem Wettbewerb teilgenommen hat.

Leona etc. pp. koennen da bei weitem nicht mit halten !

Haben trotzdem ne gute Stimme,aber Jen knallt halt alles.:-)

[ajamaicanparadox1]

What language your speaking, I am not sure, but somehow I think I understood the main thesis of what you were saying: Jennifer Hudson is the best American idol there ever was! She transcends language barriers apparently! lolz

[MelissaandKaylanshow]

she lost alot of weight

[kingdombread]

Great production! Good job on this! Keep up the good work!

[santosoha]

They've got a heck of a talent to begin with. Just need a platform to shine.

[cartmanboy]

the blacker the singer the sweeter the voice :-)

[kenshinsangel]

holla!

[issac2k8]

black dont break!

[ThaRealMckoy3]

jordin is only in it coz she won!!

i agree where is tamyra gray, vonzell, lakisha, kelly clarkson

[issac2k8]

yep!

only cause she won

she aint reached diva status yet!

[treasure4gold]

Where's Tamyra Gray, Kimberley Locke, Trenyce, Vonzell Solomon, Paris Bennett, Mandisa, Lisa Tucker, Nadia Turner, Lakisha Jones, and Syesha Mercado? There's so many more divas, besides those 5! Or are those just your favorite divas?

[alwaysfly93]

y isnt vonzell solomon up here

[jvic29]

what about david archuleta, lord knows he was a little diva ;)

[addicted2mi]

NICE....but where is VONZELL SOLOMON!!!

[hotnumber24]

The Black singers always stood out... Can you imagine American Idol without blacks?.... no! Yet they face racism... Fucked up world..

[peace190788]

exactly AL without black people hahaha that's a funny.

[hotnumber24]

Where in England can you find such talents?

[andyxrad]

Leona Lewis, Alexandra Burke, Laura White, Diana Vickers. :}

[hotnumber24]

Leona Lewis doesn't have a personality. She dresses like an old woman and dance like a white overweight gay man.

[andyxrad]

So you're not denying she has a talented voice? ;]

[hotnumber24]

Not at all. She is a fantastic singer. I bought her album, but I wouldn't pay to see her in a concert as I find her extremely boring!

[jgjones4]

and she definitely wasnt on american idol

[musicalzitheplacet]

ur death aswelll as bling leona is amazing

[santosoha]

LOL

[12345hayes]

melinda look like authur sister!the cartoon.

[Bookworme95]

How come Stephanie was included?

[addicted2mi]

BECAUSE SHE SHOULD BE!!! THATS WHY!!!

[Bookworme95]

Based on what?

[addicted2mi]

The fact that she was a excellent person NOT ONLY A excellent SINGER, since it is American IDOL. AI is a popularity contest of course, she wasnt given a chance 2 show her chops but she DEFINITELY has it. She is currently a full time student *KUDOS* ......[N IM OUT]

[kristaa55]

in the third season ruban won :S

[yodavidnavarro]

Continued here... LaToya London Jordin Sparks Sabrina Sloan Vonzell Kelly Clarkson Tamyra Grey Phil Stacey Fantasia But...For me the best of all great voices is... Frenchie Davis! IMO

[15septembergirl]

What about Mandisa. She was excellent.

[yodavidnavarro]

Yeah you're right baby! Mandisa is missed in my list!

[staajn]

katherine mcphee, she has a very wide range!

[yodavidnavarro]

The best voices ever on Idol stage (Random: Mandisa Hundley Paris Bennett Carrie Underwood Elliot Yamin Syesha Mercado Carly Hennessey JHudson David Archuleta Melinda Doolittle LaKisha Jones Clay Aiken Ruben Studdard

[staajn]

and kelly! she's a great singer, if you put david in this list kelly should be above him!

[tdot246]

wow they have grown so much since then vocally

[cristalfur]

The REAL idol divas are:(in no particular order)

Kelly Clarkson

Jeniffer Hudson

LaToya London

Tamyra Grey

Melinda Doolittle

(Vonzell? alot of people like her, but i missed her season, so i dont know if shes really that good)

everyone else is good, but not a DIVA

[daigne]

hey can u make a newer version of this and make sure that syesha mercado and carly smithson are there ok??

and oh.. how come lakisha jones is not on the list

[15septembergirl]

Syesha is not a true diva. She can sing. But she needs some work on her performance.

[patriciacjordan]

where is Kelly??????

[15septembergirl]

I agree. Kelly was is a great singer and perfomer. She should be in the top 5. Not Jordin Sparks

[auntmeme123]

Great Choices!!!! But You left out Kimberly Locke, Mandessa, Frenchie and Lakesha Jones

[csasbaby]

what about paris bennet

[terraceplace1]

This is really really nice...thanks for putting it together. I agree with all of your choices.

[ebut1099]

season 3 was the best idol hands down it was so much talent on that show it was not funny but the BEST WOMAN WON!!!!!!!!!!!

[GLMJE]

latoya is the best hands down

[Dezzy23]

Hey wat about lakisha, vonzell, and Mandisa.

[NotFearful]

I love all the ladies especially Fantasia.

[CLARINETECHARLES]

And here...where are Lakisha Jones and Diana Degarmo?

[dasmay]

Melinda is no. 1!

[stitchcastle]

yeah i echo the sentiments of the others, where the hell are Trenyce and Tamyra? and I hate her but Lakisha should be there too, as does Syesha I guess.

[67jeffery23]

all of them are black that good

[SteelAVic18]

Top Divas on American Idol #1- Fantasia #2- Melinda Doolittle #3- Vonzell Solomon #4- Lakisha Jones #5- Latoya London #6- Mandisa/Frenchie Davis #7- Tamyra Gray #8- Paris Bennett #9- Jennifer Hudson #10-Stephanie Edwards #11- Kimberly Locke

[alexjason22]

syesha mercado must be on the list

[stitchcastle]

uh...no

[Donnyhathaway2007]

I agree whole-heartedly

[SteelAVic18]

Stephanie Edwards did get cheated out!! I'm still mad at that!! She came in 11th place in 2007. Yeah Right!!

[blackie2006123]

i think that stephanie edwards was cheated out of stardom.she is one f the greatest idol divas to hit that stage.i hope her career well

[guudcadee]

you guys are forgetting Carrie Underwood. she was terrific.

[stitchcastle]

Carrie doesn't count since she's more a country singer... I think this category belongs to the big soul power belters. if anything, Kelly Clarkson deserves to be on that list.

[lyricalj]

fantasia is my favorte but like all of them!!

[OTROZZ]

why didn't you record Fantasia's Summertime, You were always on my mind.? The way you look tonight? Just asking. Where's Mandisa, Lakisha?

[rackakhan]

where is treynce,tamyra gray,vonzell soloman,lakisha jones,sayesha mercado,and Asia Epethson those are divas that need to be involved.

[BountifulY]

Fantasia the best Diva ever.....where's lakisha, Paris? I also think that Melinda has the best voice ever on idol including the male voices. However Fantasia raw emotion just give me Chills from her first note of ANY song she sings. Jennifer has some mad pipes and she's an oscar winner....nuff said!

[RizenDragon56]

Vonzell is another amazing singer

[sexyblack103]

why is jordan in this video?

[DAlmond123]

she is a diva

[sexyblack103]

okay if you say so.... i would admit she is a pop princess in the making but you guys went to far with the diva tittle.

[dskennie]

Omg I kinda remember that Fantasia performance, I don't remeber some of the others, I like them a lot though. I also really liked and remember that Stephanie Edwards performance, she did so great. Where's Tamara Grey and Mandisa.

[alexjason22]

how come tamyra gray, vonzell solomon and syesha mercado are not here?

lakisha and mandisa?

they are belters too..

don't include fantasia kinda cartoon's voice

jordin sweet voice

melinda not a soul belter.

[bugg53]

Psst!! Fantasia's my favorite ..but they're all great !!

[bugg53]

with all this hate crap ..we probably are better off with Adam and Steve!!! Give it a rest...these singers are ALL AWESOME and who gives a rats ass what color they are!! People are people !!!

[MILKYWAY6789]

wat about lakisha

[jimjimisback]

I just find it funny though how people think that their nationality is better than anothers' when we all are mixed with different nationalities! Another thing I find funny is how people don't even know why they feel a certain way about a certain race. All they know is that they were told by their parents, who were told by their parents that they are the superior race. I'm black by the way if you can't tell from my videos. But technically, I'm mixed as well as you are!!

Good-Day Mate! GOD BLESS!

[jimjimisback]

(LAST one) If you were to get a DNA/Blood Test, you would find small portions of EVERY nationality inside of you. This is all in GOD's prophecy. Read the book of Genesis in the bible, and you will see that Adam and Eve were of Black descent. Also, Jesus is of Black descent. The holy bible says that he had white curly wooly hair, and had Bronze feet. This is why the Catholic churches and other religions try not to FULLY focus on Jesus.

[jimjimisback]

(Part 3) To breathe more air in hotter climates. As opposed to people of the Caucasoid race have straighter noses because they don't need as much air, because of their cooler environments. Even though we don't all stay in those places anymore, the genes of all of these different Nationalities are in us. SOME traits more than others! Thats why we look certain ways. I'm not mad at the statements you made simply because you don't know about your biological traits.

[jimjimisback]

(Part 2) People of yellower skin and curly/wavy hair come from sulfuric areas(such as China, and around the coast of China) which makes their skin partially colored. But these people are also mixed with Black/White genes, and you can come out in so many different shapes and forms being mixed or not!!! As for Africans, They are dark-complected because they come from very sunny areas, and their hair is tightly curled as a natural trait to keep them cool. Their noses are bigger because they need...

[jimjimisback]

(Part 1) In case you don't know. No matter what we look like, we all have African genes in us. Because ADAM and EVE were of black descent and they were the 1st 2 people GOD put on this earth. Then they had children, theirs' had children and down the list here we are. As for all of our different looks, that is because of where you were born from. People of palor skin and straigh hair come from cooler environments. The straight hair is a natural trait to keep them warm in their cooler environment

[wheeps]

in what batch/season is Jennifer Hudson belong?

[JimiJegede]

With Fantasia. 3rd season.

[daluyong00]

where's mandisa?!?

and lakeesha...

and nadya...

[miejajamie]

is there something you have against ALL OF THE OTHER SEASONS, I mean there were some good Divas in other seasons, Kelly clarkson, carrie Underwood, Kathrine McPhee! what this Vid needs is a sequel!!

[demonwind92]

this isnt only season 3 bcuz at 5:53 thats jordin sparks and after her is melinda doolittle and we should all kno that they r from season 6

[cstudent04]

I think Fantasia should get back down to her body size from back then. Love her but she's a little meaty now...

[lynnaePerry]

I wanted Vonzell to win so Bad......m:(

[sweetprinces4lyfe]

this is good. a good vid.

but what about white divas like kelly, carrie, katharine, etc?

And I mean paris bennet was gr8 too.

[newkeith]

You can only get so much into 10 minutes

[lukituchi]

katharine is not so good!

[DjEmotional]

La Toya killed that song.

I don't really remember Stephanie though, but for sure she's a good singer. I guess I didn't pay attention during her season.

Vonzell was also a really good contestant in season 4 i think it was. I'm glad La Toya was here because she was extremely powerful during her time on Idol. & I notice they're all the black divas, the strong powerful black divas I must say though but this is a good video. :]

[ajamaicanparadox1]

and Lakisha and Kelly and Tamyra, Kimberley Locke, like OMG!!

[ajamaicanparadox1]

yea where is Vonzell!!!

[charomiami]

where's vonzell??? and the white divas???

[gustasvo]

good point!

[lilmarq1021]

wow jordin really killed it wit dat one.......i missed that but that was amazing....of course jenny, latoya, and fantasia cuz the are the original three divas, but VONZELL SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE...........I FREAKIN LOVE HER TO DEATH DO US PART......but it waz a good video no the least

[CarrieFan4Lyfe]

I kinda dislike these divas because the audience is fooled into thinking they are ALWAYS amazing singers just because they can belt it out. There is more to music than just a loud voice and I wish people could leave that mentality but it's difficult with all these so called divas popping out a lot. Granted, they do deliver some amazing performances but what I want to point out is that they have their equal number of misses as well.

[JSDSandiego]

This video Defff needs Lakisha and Kelly. i dont really think "diva" when i think Carrie, but shes way more deserving that stephanie

[XxGermzxX]

OMG VONZELL IS THE BEST

[markos077]

ya really... I was offended there weren't any white divas on here.. Divas do come in different colors dont they.. Anyways Fantasia is the best out of these "divas"

[evelambert]

STEPHANIE LEFT TOO DAMN EARLY!. Where is she doing now.

[shanae7]

i see her around savannah all the time at basketball games

[Shellnpepe]

I agree people! No Vonzell, Tamyra gray, Diana Degarmo! Where the Hell is Lakisha! I love Carrie Underwood! I know this could have went beyond 9:57! Paris, Kimberley Locke, NO LAKISHA! If you are going to do it, do it RIGHT! PS>I Like Jordin Sparks!!! She's young and deserve for props!

[henrix18c]

i dont like jordin sparks....

[ilovevonzell28]

I don't like her either!

[JennaLeighhh]

me neither

[elmister10000]

Where are Vonzell, Kelly, Mandisa and Lakisha, 4 super divas and the beautiful Carrie Underwood.

[GRomance0804]

and Vonzell Solomon who is my 2nd favorite in Idol history

[GRomance0804]

missing from this list:

Kelly Clarkson,Lakisha Jones,Carrie Underwood,Diana DeGarmo,Kimberley Locke,Paris Bennett,Katharine McPhee, and Tamyra Grey

[maurisheldon]

and stephanie had big pitch problems in all of her perfomances

[byge72]

Great List! I love all these ladies. Althouh I would have picked some others, this is your list and not mine. At this stage in the competiton I think Melinda was the best,so you "Saved the best for last". Vocally and technically I think she is the best ever on AI, and Kimberly Locke would be a close second.

[smithjt1]

you totally forgot vonzell, mandisa, lakisha...and probably a few more...lol

[vilisoni]

i agree tymyra as well

[CriztopheThe1andOnly]

yep definitely, tamyra, kim locke, and vonzell should definitely be on the list

[ilovevonzell28]

I totally agree! Vonzell, Mandisa, and Lakisha!

[sasser07]

Definatly Vonzell!!! Jordin Sparks???? Get out of here!

[ilovevonzell28]

I know! Just because Jordin won doesn't mean she is a diva!

[lividaloca]

look @ head n shoulders lol

[lividaloca]

many people dnt like fantasias voice its unique its love it or hate it but her stage presence is very dominant compared to the other girls love fantasia shes an inspiration

[jimjimisback]

That is very true!

[maurisheldon]

i agree with you guys

[dayumboi]

and I'm assuming you also don't that Fantasia owned the role of sealy in the Color Purple on Broadway...Haters get a grip

[mysteryman95342]

I'm assuming You haven't seen DreamGirls then?
