In this episode, Angie & Steffi discuss their thoughts on Rihanna's much anticipated Super Bowl halftime show performance. Was it underwhelming? Overwhelming? Or just whelming? Angie also takes this moment to gloat that she accurately predicted Rihanna's closer (yet again!). Plus, we share what Diva Dailies listeners thought of Rihanna's performance as well.We then share our personal TOP 5 Favorite Halftime Show performances OF ALL TIME. And discuss why we think these performances stand above from the rest. From Beyoncé to Michael, and everyone else in between - did your favorite performance make the Diva Dailies Top 5? There's also a SURPRISING personal connection that Angie has to one of the Super Bowl performances. Steffi was stunned into silence, which is a feat. Plus, we end the show answering some tangential Super Bowl Halftime Show related questions like: Which performances were our honorable mentions that didn't quite make the Top 5? What is the worst halftime performance? And…who do we think will eventually grace the halftime show stage?*Email us for show notes: divadailiespod@gmail.com*Twitter & Instagram: @divadailiespod*TikTok: @divadailiespodcastSTEFFI'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter & Instagram: @inn_mho*YouTube: innmyhumbleopinionANGIE'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter: @poetrysoul3*Instagram: @angie.simone*YouTube: Sleepy Nerd ProductionsTIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping (01:02)- Listener Feedback (02:37)Rihanna's Super Bowl Halftime Show- Rihanna Super Bowl Discussion (08:11)Our Top 5 Favorite Halftime Shows- Angie's #5: Janet Jackson (23:16)- Steffi's #5: Katy Perry (27:37)- Angie's #4: Beyoncé (33:10)- Steffi's #4: Madonna (37:22)- Angie's #3: Coldplay, Bruno, & Beyoncé (43:28) - Steffi's #3: Michael Jackson (51:36)- Angie's #2: Michael Jackson (59:11)- Steiff's #2: Beyoncé (63:21)- Angie's #1: Prince (69:31)- Steffi's #1: Prince (74:34)Related Super Bowl Halftime Show Discussions- Honorable Mentions (76:44)- Predictions for Upcoming Halftime Show Performers (80:42)Closing Segment- Social Media (82:39)- Previewing Next Episode: Madonna's “Ray of Light” Part 1 (83:11)

Happy Holidays, everyone!!Apologies for this episode coming out after Christmas, but we thought to round out Season 2 of Diva Dailies, we'd play a little holiday game on the pod. Perhaps we can make this a holiday tradition?In the final episode of Season 2, Angie (@poetrysoul3) and Steffi (@inn_mho) sort our Season 2 divas on the Naughty or Nice List. Then, we also reflect on what hypothetical gift we would give to the diva. It's a festive time and a great review of all the divas we've covered this season.Thank you to everyone who's supported the pod this year. Whether you sent in a voice message, emailed, or even just gave any episode a listen, we really do appreciate all the support. Also just wanted to give a special congrats to Angie for finishing her first official season as a full time host. Good job, Angie. We can't wait to come back for Season 3 because there's already so much to talk about. Hope you all have a safe and happy holiday break in 2022, and can't wait to hear from you all in 2023!*Email us for show notes: divadailiespod@gmail.com*Twitter & Instagram: @divadailiespod*YouTube: Diva Dailies PodcastSTEFFI'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter & Instagram: @inn_mho*YouTube: innmyhumbleopinionANGIE'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter: @poetrysoul3*YouTube: Sleepy Nerd ProductionsTIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping (00:44)- Listener Feedback (03:47)- Naughty or Nice Game (11:44)- Closing Thoughts/ What's to Come Season 3 (77:39)

For this episode, we discuss the unique way that the Spice Girls were marketed and all of the endorsement/brand deals that they did. Shoutout to Pepsi! Of course, we can't talk about “Spiceworld” without briefly discussing the cinematic classic “Spice World”. We then discuss our favorite music videos, live performances and go through all the Spice-y receipts. And finally, we bring the Spice Bus home by ending on a very important question: Did Geri cement the Spice Girls' pop culture legacy by leaving the way that she did?Album Info: Spiceworld is the second studio album by English girl group the Spice Girls, released on 1 November 1997 by Virgin Records. Its music incorporates dance-pop music and production. The album became a commercial success worldwide, lengthening the so-called "Spicemania" of the time. It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, with first-week sales of 190,000 copies and shipped 1.4 million copies in two weeks. The album also reached number one in 13 countries, while peaking inside the top three in Australia, Canada, France, Switzerland and the United States.

We are back for PART 2 of our Janet Jackson “The Velvet Rope” journey. In this episode, Angie (@poetrysoul3) and Steffi (@inn_mho) break down the era! This week, Angie is back for our intro and we catch up on our Oscar & Razzie Moment of the Week. We also read an updated review from THE Nicole Scherzinger (Nicole, this is between me, and you, and you) and discuss our thoughts on Janet's - if we can call it that - The Velvet Rope 25 campaign. In our Era Breakdown episodes, we touch on so many topics like career context, controversies/scandals of the era, marketing, music videos, live performances, album stats, and the album & era's ultimate impact and legacy. For this episode, we talk about the relationship between Janet & René Elizondo Jr. and how that ultimately fell apart during The Velvet Rope era. We also discuss mental health & the way 90s media sensationalized depression, queer identity, piercings, tattoos, Janet's iconic RED hair, and the undeniable impact of The Velvet Rope on today's R&B music scene. The Janet propaganda continues. Sign up for the cause today.Again, this is part 2 of the conversation! So make sure you listen to part 1 where we discussed the album track by track.We hope you enjoyed our Janet Jackson “The Velvet Rope” journey!Album Info: The Velvet Rope is the sixth studio album by American singer Janet Jackson. The album was released on October 7, 1997, through Virgin Records. Prior to its release, she renegotiated her contract with Virgin for US$80 million, the largest recording contract in history at that time. Upon experiencing an emotional breakdown, Jackson began facing a long-term case of depression. She in turn developed her new record as a concept album, using introspection as its theme. Its title is a metaphor for emotional boundaries, as well as an allusion to an individual's need to feel special. Its lyrics address subject matter such as depression, self-worth, social networking, and domestic violence. It also encompasses themes of sexuality, including BDSM, sexual orientation and same-sex relationships. Due to its sexually explicit content, the album reinforced Jackson's public image as a sex symbol and as one of the most erotic vocalists of the 1990s. Its incorporation of social issues regarding sexual orientation and combating homophobia also established her reputation as a gay icon and received the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Music.*Email us for show notes: divadailiespod@gmail.com*Twitter & Instagram: @divadailiespod*YouTube: Diva Dailies PodcastSTEFFI'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter & Instagram: @inn_mho*YouTube: innmyhumbleopinionANGIE'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter: @poetrysoul3*YouTube: Sleepy Nerd ProductionsTIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping (01:55)- Listener Feedback (03:13)- Oscar & Razzie Moment of the Week (04:59)- Our Thoughts on The Velvet Rope 25 (13:08)Era Breakdown (17:43)- Pop Corn & Pop Stars (19:28)- Spill the Technicolor Tea (27:32)- But We Need the Audience to Buy the Album (60:21)- Video Killed the Radio Star (70:29)- The Mic Is On (83:47)- Show Me the Receipts (90:19)- Impact/ Closing Thoughts (93:28)- Preview Next Week's Episode (99:23)

For this episode, we talk about Tommy Motttola, Derek Jeter, and that one time Da Brat & Mariah escaped Sing Sing to get some fries at Burger King! We also discuss 90s media culture and how BRAVE Mariah was for promoting/addressing the dramas of her marriage to the man…who just so happens to be her boss & head of the label. Whew. There's so much to unpack her: Mariah's feelings on her multiracial identity, her place in the Vocal Trinity, and her dog Jack. Lambs, we hope we did your girl proud. Mariah, spread your wings and fly.Again, this is part 2 of the conversation! So make sure you listen to part 1 where we discussed the album track by track.We hope you enjoyed our Mariah Carey “Butterfly” journey!Album Info: Butterfly is the sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey, released on September 16, 1997, by Columbia Records. The album contains both hip hop and urban adult contemporary sounds, as well as some softer and more contemporary melodies. Throughout the project, Carey worked with Walter Afanasieff, with whom she had written and produced most of the material from her previous albums. She also worked with many famed hip hop producers and rappers, such as Sean "Puffy" Combs, Q-Tip, Missy Elliott and the Trackmasters. With the latter acts producing most of the album, Butterfly deviated from the adult contemporary sound of Carey's previous albums.*Email us for show notes: divadailiespod@gmail.com*Twitter & Instagram: @divadailiespod*YouTube: Diva Dailies PodcastSTEFFI'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter & Instagram: @inn_mho*YouTube: innmyhumbleopinionANGIE'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter: @poetrysoul3*YouTube: Sleepy Nerd ProductionsTIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping (01:10)- Listener Feedback (03:29)- Our Thoughts on Butterfly 25 (12:58)Era Breakdown (18:00)- Pop Corn & Pop Stars (19:55)- Spill the Technicolor Tea (25:15)- But We Need the Audience to Buy the Album (56:58)- Video Killed the Radio Star (70:07)- The Mic Is On (84:34)- Show Me the Receipts (88:53)- Impact/ Closing Thoughts (92:57)- Preview Next Week's Episode (98:03)

Welcome back to PART 2 on our Crazy, Sexy, Cool journey of TLC's 2nd album. In this episode, Angie (@poetrysoul3) and Steffi (@inn_mho) breakdown the era. Like in all our Diva Dailies episodes, we give context and explain where TLC was at in their careers and why they made the album. We then discuss the controversies that plagued the group during this time including their infamous bankruptcy, boyfriend troubles, and yes - the fire incident. Because this is an era breakdown, we also introduce some new segments to the podcast: Video Killed the Radio Star (sharing our favorite music videos from the era), The Mic Is On (discussing the live performances from the era), and But We Need the Audience to Buy the Album (exploring the different marketing strategies of the artist & what sets them a part from the rest).

CrazySexyCool featured hip hop beats, funk, deep grooves, propulsive rhythms and smooth production. The album's lyrical content was seen as a departure from the group's debut and was seen as a coming-of-age project which explored themes such as sexuality, romanticism, inexperience, and youthful optimism.*Email us for show notes: divadailiespod@gmail.com*Twitter & Instagram: @divadailiespod*YouTube: Diva Dailies PodcastSTEFFI'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter & Instagram: @inn_mho*YouTube: innmyhumbleopinionANGIE'S SOCIAL MEDIA:*Twitter: @poetrysoul3*YouTube: Sleepy Nerd ProductionsTIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping (01:14)- Setting Up the Episode (03:10)- Pop Corn & Pop Stars (06:47)- Spill the Technicolor Tea (13:12)- Video Killed the Radio Star (38:40)- The Mic Is On (47:46)- But We Need the Audience to Buy the Album (56:06)- Show Me the Receipts (65:10)- Impact/ Closing Thoughts (68:42)- Preview Next Week's Episode (77:07)

With Janet thriving in her 50s, Mel B & Victoria Beckham FINALLY reuniting, Adele postponing her Vegas residency, and Madonna boom kacking the girls into shape for her anticipated biopic, there was no better time for Diva Dailies to make a triumphant return. And of course, we give you our thoughts on that Whitney Houston biopic movie poster.

Angie (@poetrysoul3) and Steffi are breaking down Night 2 - episodes 3 & 4 - of Janet Jackson's docuseries “JANET JACKSON.” (2022).

We also share our thoughts on Janet & Renee's relationship and Janet's “bonus” vertical Super Bowl footage. Do we forgive Justin Timberlake? Is Renee really THAT bad? Is the Black Diamond era Janet's curtain call? And is Jermaine Dupri stupid? Or is Jermaine Dupri stuipd?Logline: An intimate and unfiltered look at the untold story of Janet Jackson filmed over the span of three years featuring archival footage, never before seen home videos and star-studded interviews.EPISODE TIME STAMPS:- Housekeeping/ Admin.

Divas, Divos, and Divs! We are back from our winter slumber. A certain diva by the last name of Jackson is ready to reflect and share with the class..or is she? No, it's not Legend-Toya. And her first name ain't baby. Today we're talking about Janet (Miss Jackson, if ya nasty). Angie (@poetrysoul3) and I (@inn_mho) are back to break down Night 1 - episodes 1 & 2 - of Janet Jackson's docuseries “JANET JACKSON.” (2022). We talk about our first impressions and whether this truly satisfied our inner Janet stan. Was Joseph Jackson a tyrant or strict parent? Was Renee Elizondo genuinely in love or calculating behind the scenes? Was there too much of big brother Michael? And more importantly…where was Legend Toya?! *Episodes 3 & 4 will be discussed in another episode.

Continuing where we left off last episode, Angie (@poetrysoul3) and I are back to discuss our thoughts on Adele's “30” era. We discuss our favorite moments from the Zayn Lowe interview and decide who are “the ten” that Adele considers to be part of “the last of a dying breed”. And you know it wouldn't be a classic Diva Dailies episode without some tea! So I share some of the gossip/controversy surrounding the era like the real story behind Adele's infamous Australian interview and the ruckus that Mel B caused during Adele's “An Audience With” across the pond. (I still love you, Mel B. ❤️) And because this is a Diva Discography episode, “Where My Background Singers” makes a triumphant comeback as I put Angie to the test and quiz her on some Adele “30” lyrics.#DivorceBabesDivorceAlbum Info: 30 is the fourth studio album by English singer-songwriter Adele, released on 19 November 2021 by Melted Stone and Columbia Records.

#JusticeforJanetI am joined once again by premiere Janet stan and fan favorite of Diva Dailies, Angie (@poetrysoul3), to discuss and break down our thoughts on the New York Time's most recent TV documentary about Janet Jackson entitled, “Malfunction: The Dressing Down of Janet Jackson). Angie and I give our honest opinions on the documentary and discuss various topics we wish the documentary went more in depth with such as the conservatives' moral values campaign, the complicity of major corporations in the take down of Janet, race, the Jezebel archetype, and why Justin Timberlake was & still is trash. We have the receipts!!!We love you, Janet. And can't wait for your side of the story come January 2022 in your own documentary. #JusticeforJanetLogline: In 2004, a culture war was brewing when the Super Bowl halftime show audience saw a white man expose a Black woman's breast for 9/16ths of a second. A national furor ensued. "If the culture wars could have a 9/11, it's February 1st, 2004," said one observer. The woman was Janet Jackson, and her career was never the same. The man was Justin Timberlake; his stardom only grew.
