 Disappointing October 23, 2002

Well I am very disappointed in this DVD/CD performance. The wonderful duet between CHER and CYNDI LAUPER singing Turn Back Time was most unfortunately cut out. Mistake number one. Mary J. Blige was taken out of the entire dvd and cd. I don;t know why. Maybe she didn't want to be on it. The duet with her and WHITNEY HOUSTON singing Rainy Dayz was also cut out. BIG mistake number two. The two other DIXIE CHICKS songs were taken out. Bad move. The duet between MARY J BLIGE and SHAKIRA was taken out. They sang Love Is A Battlefield. The DIXIE CHICKS, MARY J BLIGE, and STEVIE NICKS were even taken out of the finale. That was the last straw. I am very disappointed. This is a good disc to see for Celine Dion performances. You see two CHER performances. I am happy they kept the Landslide duet between STEVIE NICKS and the DIXIE CHICKS. That is the only saving grace because the finale was ruined. Even the special feature of the backstage film monly has Celine Dion, Shakira, and Anastacia in it. No CHER, she was the other headliner. i think VH1 needs to start distributing the full show of the DIVAS performances form all the years. They edit out every single one. Most disappointing.
 5 stars for Cher ONLY December 1, 2002

Hi I have to say that this DVD is BAD. I saw it on T.V. and that was better than the DVD. And they cut out so many things like Cher's duet with Cyndi Lauper. So I suggest anybody who wants to buy this think because you are gonna waste your money. Oh yes I forgot to tell everybody there is only 9 performances and this is how the DVD is: 1.You Shook Me All Night Long by Celine Dion and Anastacia. 2.Believe by Cher. 3.Song For the Lonely by Cher. 4.Underneath Your Clothes by Shakira. 5.Landslide by Dixie Chicks and Stevie Nicks. 6.One Day In Your Life by Anastacia 7.I'm Alive by Celie Dion. 8.New Day Has Come by Celine Dion. 9.Elvis Medley Jailhouse Rock by Anastacia Always on my Mind by Shakira Heartbreak Hotel by Cher and Can't Help Falling In Love by Celine Dion. People do you really want this I mean they cut people from the finale and in the DVD it does not have Ellen Degenorous (host of the show) so that is not fair so people you should think about this.

When I watched this concert on television I thought that the highlight was when Cher and Cyndi Lauper duetted on "If I Could Turn Back Time". It was one of those magic moments but it has not been included on the DVD. Why???
What??? Poor decision and lame dvd!!! July 8, 2004

When I saw this on VH1, I loved it. It had fun performances and was hosted by the always funny Ellen Degeneres. She was the host and opened the show with a warm-up with the dancers and a performance of Salt N' Peppa's Shoop, in the Britney Spears style with dancers and all. And then she went on with an even funnier monologue about how Cher flicked her off. How could you cut that??? It was hilarious. Even worse, they cut some performers altogether and some great songs as well. What were they thinking when they released this dvd? Why would any fan of the Divas Live series want this poor example of a commercially available dvd? I'll be looking for someone hawking an unedited bootleg and give them my money instead. Bad decision VH1!
This DVD blows BIG TIME... March 18, 2003

I saw "VH1 Divas Las Vegas" when it first aired in May of 2002. It was done fairly well considering the lineup was put together all wrong--Stevie Nicks and Cyndi Lauper should have been main performers, whilst Dixie Chicks and Shakira should have been the special guests. The performances were not earth shattering, but they were good nonetheless. Mary J. Blige poured her heart and soul into "No More Drama." Diva-in-the-making Anastacia worked the stage like a seasoned pro. Stevie Nicks was good but her voice sounded a little weak. Celine was fantastic as usual--especially during her duet of "You Shook Me All Night Long" with Anastacia. Cyndi Lauper's appearance left me wanting more. I was unimpressed by the Dixie Chick's performance (Why couldn't they have performed "I Can Love You Better"?) Shakira was good but her unusual wattle of a voice kepy making my skin crawl. In short, I liked the concert enough to buy the DVD only to find that half the show has been omitted. NOTE TO ALL MARY, WHITNEY AND CYNDI FANS: Don't buy this DVD! All of Mary's performances were cut (including her duet with Whitney). Apparently Mary's record label would not allow her to be inlcluded. Cyndi's performance was cut due to her on-going fued with Epic records. VH1 needs to work out kinks such as these before they expect us to pay a sh--load of money for only HALF of what we expect to receive.
