Vh1 Divas: I Do Not Think It Means What Vh1 Wants It To Mean

Tomorrow night, Vh1 continues this month’s run of MTV Networks self-cross-promotional bonanzas with the Paula Abdul-hosted special Vh1 Divas, in which current female inhabitants of the pop charts get tagged with the d-word whether it’s apt or not while singing in front of an adoring audience. This year’s lineup offers up a sort of diminishing diva returns; you’ve got Kelly Clarkson (hell yes), Adele (eh, ok), Jennifer Hudson (sure), Leona Lewis (Simon Cowell thinks so but the Idolator jury’s still out), Jordin Sparks (uh), and Miley Cyrus (oh hell no). And now all those singers have been assigned duet partners for the evening, in an effort to pass some torches and I guess reel in the demographic of people who prefer “Achy Breaky Heart” to “Party In The U.S.A.” Buddy up after the jump! Kelly Clarkson and Melissa Etheridge Miley Cyrus and Sheryl Crow Jordin Sparks and Martina McBride Leona Lewis and Cyndi Lauper Jennifer Hudson and Stevie Wonder Hands up if you’d rather see Cyndi Lauper dueting with Tracy Morgan than with the strenuously bland Leona? Yeah, me too. Stevie Wonder And Cyndi Lauper Join VH1 Divas Lineup [Vh1]
