Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review: Strutting through the audience, the indomitable Tina Turner opens VH1's Divas Live 99 by launching into "Simply the Best", proving she still is. She and honorary diva Elton John belt out an energetic version of "The Bitch is Back", but the highlight is when Turner teases the captivated audience during the slow, sultry opening of "Proud Mary". A sexy dervish on stage, Turner easily out-swaggers her younger backup singer-dancers. Cher joins her to wrap up the classic hit, then segues into her own set in which she seems breathless, but you can't help admire her staying power (four decades!) and forgive her. Diva-in-training Leann Rimes performs "How Do I Live" with a sure, powerful voice. Next to her, Brandy is pleasant but unexciting. Her breathy rendition of "Everything I Do I Do for You" is disappointing, but it picks up when Faith Hill enters. Adding a passion and conviction that young Brandy can't yet muster, Hill grounds the song. Über-diva Whitney Houston gives us the drawn-out vocal gymnastics for which she's famous. Self-effacing she's not, but the girl can hold a note like nobody's business. Mary J Blige matches Houston in a charged "Ain't No Way". Divas Live 99 is a benefit for Save the Music, VH1's project to stress the importance of music education in American public schools. Though not as stunning as the previous year's Divas Live, it's still an enjoyable concert from some of music's favourite performers. --Dana Van Nest, Amazon.com

I absolutely LOVED this concert. Mariah is simply amazing - as always. She is a true talent and very humble, which you can see immediately as she steps on that stage - awesome. Some of the other performers seemed like they wanted all the attention on themselves (Aretha, Celine), but a brilliant concert it was. I am now looking for the DVD version of Divas Live with Mariah Carey and Diana Ross, but I can't seem to find it anywhere - PLEASE HELP!

i think all of the ladies are brilliant except mariah, her voice had so much strength but she lost it and now relies on rap stars to take away the attention away - sadly for her there isn't any on here! it's just pure weakness where she's concerned! however the others are great!

An amazing show with preformances which seperate the orginal divas from the wannabes. Mariah, Gloria, Aretha, Shaina shine within their own right. Each a natural preformer with an amazing vocal talents - particualry Mariah and Aretha. Most disappointing is Celine Dion. Her vocals are substandard and she has no emtional connection with her songs whatsoever giving very bland and soul-less renditions. Whats worse is her constant attempts to upstage to all on the floor with her. The attempt which is most obvious occurs during Natural Woman when she attempts to upstage Aretha who casually and seemingly without effort drowns Celine out. Celine is then ultimatly left with no option but to retreat back into the line with her vocal cords between ... Read More:

This DVD shows a charity concert given by Celine Dion, Aretha Franklin, Gloria Estefan, Shania Twain and Mariah Carey in New York. The songs are mostly standards performed solo and in various combinations. It is interesting to compare the various top class performers at work. Some generous and giving, some selfish and wanting centre stage! A minor drawback is the charity element, in this case a very worthy but solely American music charity. Various celebrities have been allocated walk on cameos while several undoubtedly able young performers are osensibly given a few moments in the limelight - this aside it is a great DVD and is well worth the asking price.
