While I can't argue too much with 2-5 and 8 (Betty, Loleatta, Gwen, Candi and Etta) being on such a list, can we really put Jennifer Holliday *ahead* of Etta James? And while most opinions would say that 'Tasia and Jennifer Hudson have what it takes to <strong>eventually</strong> be considered the 'divas' of this generation of singers, can we really say that they have "arrived" at that level in this early stage in their careers? Man I just <strong>LUV</strong> these types of discussions! Wow, what a different list!
