the divAmeter

sorry this is up so late y'all, but a girl has to work. you know, booking travel for artists actually has to come before running my data thru excel...you catch my drift!

there are some surprises this week - rihanna upstages bee, mariah doesn't make the cut even though she dropped a new single!, and amy winehouse is readmitted to consideration (britney is readmitted too tho she didn't score high enough to make the cut).

let's get down and dirty. the divAmeter from the top of the month is HERE.



5. christina - 95
christina pops onto the divameter strong yet again this week. she's back out and about post-max bratman and showing off her lovely lady lumps. i have no doubt that before you know it, miss aguilera, i mean - MRS. BRATMAN - will be back in the studio churning out some love songs and lullabies. she ain't never played around!



3. amy winehouse - 115
amy winehouse, i am happy to say, returns to the world of the living with a bang. her slow gyrating won my heart during the grammys. i must say, seeing her genuine shock and happiness at winning record of the year really moved my heart. plus, she got a new tooth. you know that was gonna boost her numbers. blake incarcerated, forever!


3. alicia keys - 115
alicia, grammy darling, was the belle of the ball. there can be no doubt. with her performances, presentations, and wins, it seemed the night was all about her. she's really getting a lot of respect right now because let's face it. few people can create quality music and sell it. plus she's beautiful and has a gentle spirit.



2. beyonce - 145
well, well, well. somebody sent beyonce a link to the last divameter! and boy am i glad. bee burst back onto the scene, getting a boost for her recent weight loss (even if unhealthily - i hold my celebs to high standards!), hot makeover, performance with tina, and refusal to reply to aretha "y'all best remember i'm queen, bitches" franklin. i am a bit sad that the extra pounds were not a little bey-z, though. :( i'll get over it.



1. rihanna - 170
the story of the past two weeks, though, has to rest with rihanna. everyone's favorite bajan (shoutout to my friend, tom, you are a tie!). everything was set up to establish beyonce as a legend. "irreplaceable" was rumored to be in the bag despite amy's mad nominations. beyonce was dressed to win and had a performance with a legend. however, somehow all everyone could talk about the next day was rihanna grabbing jay-z's hand to run onstage. now, all jokes aside, i don't really think TINK and jay-z have done the dirty. nor do i think that tink was purposely trying to start trouble. however, what she did do was in essence take all the talk that was supposed to rest on bee and tina and turn it to her. whether on purpose or not - that's some diva ish and surely that is why she is on fire at 170 degrees on this divAmeter.

*this week's BELOW ZERO - kelis: girl, get your man's clothing line off your back! we do not need clothing with the n-word on it. thanks!*

Do you honestly think Rihanna did was just trying to start trouble. Although looks can be deceiving, she does not seem like that type of female. She has too much other stuff on her plate to turn the cameras her way. Stirring up trouble with Jay and Bee don't seem to be on her menu. I mean, she has her new clothing line coming out and still has some things to put together for her Believe Foundation, which is designed to help kids all around the world. She does not have time for this nonsense. She still has to get everything in tact for her "Girl's Night Out" benefit concerts she will be doing between March and April. These concerts will be held in Chicago, San Francisco, and NYC and is brought to you by Escada's new fragrance Moon Sparkle. Moon Sparkle can be found in stores like Macy's, Sephora, and Dillard's. When purchaased, a free music download and Rihanna's new CD come along with it. Also included is an opportunity for a full make over and free trip to see Rihanna perform at one of her events. Tickets to these exclusive performances are only offered through escada. For more information log on and enter at http://www.escada-fragrances.com Does anyone plan on entering?
