Happy New Year, Divas!

Despite 2021 seeming like she might have been on the way up, she did a quick volte face at the finale and ended up being just as much of a bin fire as her predecessor.

However the diva-verse was agog with wonderful content throughout and, accordingly, this episode sees Holly & Tom (as is tradition) doing a run down of 2021's Biggest Diva Moments. However, this year, two very special EXTRA guests are with them - it's Chris & Rich of South London fame (and their coincides and whatever the plural of "bitches" is).

As such, as well as the Top 10 Diva Moments, we also share each host's Best Entertaintment, Best Song and their Dickheads and Divas of 2021.

We also have some special news meaning more diva-worship will be sashaying its way into your podcatcher in 2022 than you might have otherwise been expecting, given the imminent child in the house.

So please do keep subscribing to Big Diva Energy and never miss a fabulous episode.

And please leave a review to help other Divas find the pod!

Happy New Year and please do stay safe xxx

Bonjour notre Divas,

'Tis us, the village bores, and we're here to provide you with all the news from around the Diva-dom, with a much needed catch up on a heavy month.

Ploughing on valiantly, we dive right in with everything from Shakira's bravery in the face of swine-based harassment, Ar Di getting her very own "musical" and - the two essential As in the Diva alphabet - Adele and ABBA both dropping brand new music up on us. (Plus ABBA's semi-live madness to go with it.)

Unfortunately, we do have to cover the sad state of affairs that is Jesy Nelson's solo career thus far. But to temper that, Holly tells a frankly insane story about a French village she visited whose mayor has a pet boar.

So...swings and roundabouts.

In a change to your usual programming, we've got two very special guests joining for this little slice of something extra in the form of our upstairs neighbours who just won't shut up, but we also have a seasonally spoopy coincidence from Chris and a genuine bitch from Rich.

PLUS: a very sad announcement at the end of this ep, so listen up, divas.

If you've not already read it, get your copy of Mariah's autobiography from Store 104

Put on some lipstick and pull yourselves together, Divas!

This week's episode really is incredibly grand, as we begin what will come to be something of a saga.

It is, of course, the legendary tale of the eternally fabulous ELIZABETH TAYLOR.

Like our episodes on Britney, the life and career of the original TayTay has such an exceptional wealth of anecdotes that we just had to give her to you over several courses. Thus, we serve up a feast in the form of Liz's story from her birth to the first of two marriages to one Richard Burton.

And your maître d, here to oversee such a delicious banquet, is none other than writer, singer and performer, Isobel Rogers (@Isobel_Roge). So join all three (recorded IRL no less!) as they talk lavender marriages, Liz's celebrity pet hamster, Nibbles, and her devoted relationship to the Fuck You Club.

Along the way, we somehow talk a lot about guitars, even more about swimming and Tom spends most of the back-end of the episode trying to remember the name of the film Swimfan.

Much of this episode's research comes from Elizabeth Taylor: The Lady, The Lover, The Legend 1932-2011 by David Bret
