Divas - The Site appreciates your votes and comments. Here are some of the little gems you chose to share with us.

 

Miguel (Spain) on Greta Garbo
"... because all in her is beauty, charm and gentleness".

Heather (USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has extraordinary acting skills and her personality and mine are very similar... but why does it matter, the point is that she's my favourite."

Mar (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Gorgeous, mysterious - she owned her life."

Jaime (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was able to defy the world with her beauty & intelligence."

Israel (Spain) on Greta Garbo
"I know there are great actresses much more modern that Greta, but she's still unique, her eyes are very special, I really like her life too, it would be a great movie as well, don't you think so?"

José (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She epitomizes what a screen actress/legend/diva/star is.  Great actress.  Superb beauty.  Unique behaviour."

Kicki (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Her life, her attitude, her withdrawal from the world!
Garbo is the greatest diva on the screen ever."

Jessica (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Just so mysterious, there is no one like Garbo."

Ellinor (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Unforgettable."

M.T. (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Fabulous."

Julian (Colombia) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is the best actress of all times, and her face was the most beautiful, finally she was with ABBA the major export article of Sweden."

Alberto (Peru) on Greta Garbo
"There is no one like her."

Gurra (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is divine."

Demetris (Cyprus) on Greta Garbo
"The screen's greatest actress."

Michel (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"I first saw Greta Garbo movies when I was only 15 years old, introduced to me by my mother, it was a Garbo television festival every Sunday night, all of her 27 movies were presented, of course my reaction was at the first degree. As time went by after watching these movies again & again I came to realize that this woman had tremendous genius, her acting skills were simply witchcraft, her beauty to behold. Anybody starting an acting career should study Greta Garbo's acting & presence in front of a camera, a lot of today's actors should consider that. After Garbo... maybe Bergman or Taylor... Hepburn."

Simon (UK) on Greta Garbo
"That face of course. No cosmetic surgery. It was all there naturally. She had no bad angles. Her acting was all instinct. Not much in the way of formal training and yet so emotive and natural. Easy to see why audiences in the '20's and '30's were enthralled."

Janet (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She's mysterious, lovely, aloof-- and a beauty in my eyes."

Barbara (Poland) on Greta Garbo
"... because she never sold herself and she was really wonderful, not just a beautiful actress."

Sam (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is inspirational."

Nichole (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"The talent, how she lived her life based on her own rules and not society's. How she never revealed herself to the public, never sold out."

Tagre (Chile) on Greta Garbo
"... because she was a diva all the time and she had what none else ever had: her unique aura. She was the best actress and she could get off the stage at the peak of her success. She will always remain a real diva. Her legend will continue."

José (Spain) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo ha sido única: grandiosa como actriz, de fuerte personalidad como mujer. Lamento que no haya interpretado las películas que pudo haber protagonizado magistralmente."

Dena (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had it all... There will never be another Garbo. Mystery, allure, androgny, class, humor, true talent. A face that could launch a thousand ships. Perennial sex-appeal. I wish I could have known her. She was so  beautiful to  me, I could stare at that face for days. I wish I could have made love to such a woman. What a woman."

Tom (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Beauty, charisma, and intelligence... and I love her accent!"

Susan (USA) on Greta Garbo
"No one equals Garbo for sheer perfection of facial features.  It is a shame she never made a color movie so people could appreciate the blue of her eyes and her golden hair.  They will have to be content with the size of her eyes, her long lashes, the pure lines of brow and the sweep of her cheekbones.  She's so beautiful she's almost not pretty at all."

Oook (USA) on Greta Garbo
"No one can touch her.  She stands alone."

Renee (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Let's face it, she outfaced us all, in the centenary of her birth, she still remains an honest woman in an artificial world which allowed us all to gaze upon her! She's not only an actress but a canvass in flesh that kicked Hollywood's ass  and became the greatest screen icon of the 20th century! God Bless GG forever! There is only one Divine one, Garbo is it! Thank you for  a wonderful  site and for continued success!"

Ramon (Argentina) on Greta Garbo
"Es la mas bella mujer que ha dado el cine."

Marie (France) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo was a great fashion icon and she had style and class!"

Nathan (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is my favorite diva because she was, in my opinion the perfect woman. Not only could her looks kill, she is probably one of the most talented actresses that ever lived in the history of the film industry. Every woman should strive to be like her. She was enigmatic, powerful, opinionated, strong and above all beautiful. She is the most beautiful, mysterious, and talented woman that I have ever been able to see in any form. She possesses such austere dignity and yet still seems somehow to be very warm. I will never forget the first time that I saw "Grand Hotel" that line that is so famous, "I want to be alone." Can anybody ever surpass the sorrow yet love that encompasses everything Garbo? Heck no! You cannot even think about divas without including the comely Greta Garbo."

Bobbi (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is totally gorgeous and way more talented than 90% of all actresses!  She was classic, and should be the top Diva, most definitely.  Everyone should have Greta Garbo as their inspiration, whether or not they want to act in the future.  Actresses these days suck and hold no candle to Greta."

Jenilyn (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is my favorite diva because she is such a beautiful, exquisite actress.  She reminds me of myself and I have a lot in common with her, and she is one of my top idols.  I want to be just like her when I'm older.  I love her."

Agnetha (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Greta is somebody who no one can ever replace. She is somebody no one can ever try to understand. I respect her."

Jasmine (USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she was so beautiful and mysterious. She didn't care what anybody thought about her. She wouldn't compromise who she was as a person."

Claude (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"Simple-- She was the greatest!"

Irina (Israel) on Greta Garbo
"She's an adorable ethereal goddess whom I will worship all my life. Her marble-like face is similar to those of ancient sculptures of Greek goddesses, her eyes are oceans. Her voice is a breeze. her hair is pure silk. Her lips are petals of roses. Her gaze is sometimes so innocent and sweet, sometimes so severe and cold. She's the perfect beauty. I idolize Greta Garbo."

Shiori (Spain) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is the one, no one compares to her, her beauty, all of her was perfect."

Sharon (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"... because she was an amazing actress who started off as a model."

Mariano (Argentina) on Greta Garbo
"She is poetry in motion, I just love her."

Monica (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is my great grandmother's first cousin and she will always be my favorite."

Rochelle (USA) on Greta Garbo
"The mystery!"

Matt (France) on Greta Garbo
"Just leave me alone!"

Gaston (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is unforgettable."

"She had the face to melt hearts-- male and female!"

"Simple. Just look at her! She's the most beautiful human being."

"She was unique."

Cristina (Russia) on Greta Garbo
"... because she's mysterious."

Lizzt (USA) on Greta Garbo
"There was never anybody like her when she came along, and when she left there was nobody like her.  There will never be anybody that can match up to her beauty, talent, or uniqueness."

Sandra (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Utter fascination!"

Jay (India) on Greta Garbo
"The mystique, the allure... need one say more?"

Michael (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her unsurpassed glamour and mystery."

Renee (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Without a doubt, she embodies the definition of diva, perfection and beauty, the face of the 20th century if not of all time! She's a timeless babe appropriate for all eras!"

Yiannis (France) on Greta Garbo
"Garbo is the ultimate screen actress, the greatest actress of all time, the most beautiful and the greatest star of all. And she is a unique example, she did not have to be a diva or play the star. What she had to give she gave to the camera. The rest was for herself and for us to dream."

Matt (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"She has the face of the century, and she is a mystery."

Darra (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her timeless beauty and refusal to capitulate to others."

Michael (New Zealand) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most photogenic woman ever. She was also a brilliant actress"

Amanda (USA) on Greta Garbo
"I think that Greta Garbo embodies everything a true actress is: grace, beauty, talent, and her infamous, mystery.  GG is the greatest enigma that ever lived and no actress can live up to her talent."

Laura (UK) on Greta Garbo
"I think people should have given her privacy, not much to ask for."

Emily (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She can act and capture the fire in the hearts of all of her admirers."

Kamala (India) on Greta Garbo
"She is so beautifully mysterious. I have fallen in love with her attitude, her style. In fact, even her name. She is in the true sense a diva. I truly believe they have stopped making stars like her."

Allan (France) on Greta Garbo
"She's my favorite diva because of her attractive beauty, her mystery, her power of seduction, the perfection of her face."

Arnel (Philippines) on Greta Garbo
"She is the greatest star who ever lived. The yardstick by which the other stars shall be gauged."

Maitena (Spain) on Greta Garbo
"She has a special beauty, and her acting is so powerful. She is one of the best actresses in the world."

Shad (India) on Greta Garbo

Torsten (Germany) on Greta Garbo
"Sie ist der größte Star aller Zeiten. Keine andere Schauspielerin kann sich mit ihr vergleichen. Greta garbo ist und bleibt die Göttliche."

Sara Lynn (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She has the attitude, look, and talent of a true diva!"

Ann (USA) on Greta Garbo

Joop (Holland) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has the most beautiful face ever on screen."

Josh (USA) on Greta Garbo

Lovisa (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has everything, she was a charismatic, beautiful and a supremely talented actress. And she came from Sweden!"

Marina (Greece) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is magic! I think of her as a fairy and not a human being. I loved her at once, from the first time I saw her in a scene in Camille, I adored her! She is unique. But the most ravishing fact about Garbo is her acting. Many great divas loved her and were inspired by her art and her unique expression like Maria Callas in La Traviata."

Kattis (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"The world has never seen anyone like Greta Garbo. Extremely talented and extremely good-looking. Not to mention that she set a new trend as to how actresses should look, before her they were all small with curly hair, then she came along, very tall with straight hair and big feet. Beautiful."

Alberto (Peru) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is part human, part divine."

Conny (Germany) on Greta Garbo
"She was a great actress (very talented). It's amazing that she was born in poverty and became one of the most famous actresses!"

Crystal (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"I only saw one movie, but it touched me in such a way that I can not explain. The movie I saw was Grand Hotel- 1932. Her face is so beautiful that I laminated a photo of her and put it in my wallet to show her off to everyone.  Greta Garbo, even now is still a big movie star."

Grace (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Do you have to even ask! One of the reasons why I am such a Garbo fan is because she is in my opinion one of the most fascinating women that has ever lived. She seems to be a whole mass of contradictions. Although she was one of the most talented, beautiful, adored actresses during her time she was indifferent to her fame and fiercely guarded her privacy while she was being thrust in the public eye. She was well known for her shyness and was equally well known for her bluntness. She had a charismatic and magnetic personality and yet sometimes acted like a frightened child. There's an aura of loneliness and sadness around her. No one could completely understand her and she couldn't be classified as any type. When she arrived in Hollywood, she wrote a friend a letter telling her that the MGM studio producers were having difficulty casting her in a film because 'they don't have a type for me here.' Also, I am also amazed at how different she looks in her films and pictures. Somehow she manages to completely transform herself for a picture or a film. I also find it intriguing that at the height of her fame, she walked out of movies forever. I don't think anyone will ever understand her, but I think she will continue to fascinate and intrigue people for generations to come. As the great one said herself, 'There will never be another Garbo. No, there will never be another Garbo. I'm different inside.'"

Lee (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Class, elegance and grace!"

Jessica (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most beautiful woman in history of film, there will never be anyone like her again!"

Elisabetta (Italy) on Greta Garbo
"She was a great, a very great actress, very fascinating and very beautiful. She didn't seem to act but to live her roles in the movies. She had a great talent, and her face, so beautiful, expressive, magic, is unforgettable."

Gurra (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Garbo was and is divine. There will never be another actress that even comes close to her in beauty, talent or mystique."

Deirdra (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"... because when I was younger, I bought a portrait of Garbo, from a scene in Mata Hari, by Clarence Sinclair Bull, and she followed you everywhere with her eyes, and I simply fell in love with the mysterious, beautiful, sensual face of Greta... Lost it in a separation, and never found another one exactly like it!"

Sydney (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"She was completely stunningly beautiful in a truly classic sense. She did not compromise or buy in to the Hollywood lifestyle. She was always herself and did not succumb to societal pressures in that she never married. She was smart; she knew when to quit. She also knew exactly how to create a mystique even though she probably scorned the idea.  She is probably laughing at us right now as I write and you read about her. That is why she is a diva extraordinaire!"

Margaret (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is beautiful, talented, flirty, magnificent. No one will ever measure up to her. She had such charm."

Loriaux (France) on Greta Garbo
"... because of her look, her bone structure, and fabulous life of mystery."

Kathy (USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is utterly fantastic, so elegant and sexy all rolled into one!"

Allan (USA) on Greta Garbo
"The most beautiful and mysterious woman!"

L.H. (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"There was just that something about her."

Yanotchka (Finland) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is special, because she is a great artist, not just another pretty face, because she speaks to my soul, I feel at home when I'm watching her move, speak, and everything."

Val (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She did it her way."

Priscilla (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is my favorite diva because she is a master of tragedy and romance. She is an amazingly talented actress who was very modest with her popularity. She is also the most beautiful woman that has ever lived."

Rose (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She's got it all - no one else has ever come close."

Jason (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Wonderful actress!"

"She was a magnificent beauty with a stunning screen presence!"

Greg (Canada) on Greta Garbo
"Charm, grace, beauty!"

Fabiana (Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"She's the best! I love Greta Garbo."

Eduardo (Mexico) on Greta Garbo
"Beauty, acting!"

Greta (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most illuminous of that time area.  Her mysterious legacy lives on into today. Her style will be forever up to date. My favorite quote by he is "Everyone of us lives his/her life just once; if we are honest, to live once is enough."

Eva (Austria) on Greta Garbo
"... because she's the most unique of all."

Tisha (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her beauty overcomes me!"

Maria (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Even though she is called a diva I see her as one of the world's most natural and convincing personalities. A diva to me means someone with great integrity and Greta Garbo was a beautiful survivor because she had a lot of integrity."

Jeanette (Holland) on Greta Garbo
"The best actress I have ever seen, even in her silent movies she had a charisma and didn't look as old fashioned as some of the other actors from that time. When you look at her films now, you could take her out and put her in a movie made in 2001 and she would look just fine, like she was standing there right now, that's what I call a diva."

Drew (New Zealand) on Greta Garbo
"Her face was a clean flat surface on which you could superimpose any emotion you wished, plus she stuck her fingers up at Hollywood."

Linda (Sweden) on Greta Garbo

Hanne (Norway) on Greta Garbo
"... because of her beauty, mystery and talent. And because she was brave enough to stop filming when she did."

"She is magnetic!"

Jakob (Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Love her! Totally!"

Nancy (USA) on Greta Garbo
"I love her movies and to me she is the true queen of the golden era and most certainly the most beautiful."

Patrick (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most beautiful woman of the 20th century!"

Audrey (USA) on Greta Garbo
"The most beautiful, alluring, and talented silent and sound actress."

Jennifer (USA) on Greta Garbo
"Well aside from people saying I look like her, her mystery and the fact that she was a legend and at one time a bisexual makes me have an affinity for her."

Laura (USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was absolutely beautiful. She had an air of sadness about her, and of course, the Garbo 'mystique' she perpetuated so well."

Mary (France)) on Greta Garbo
"So alone, so silent!"

Panopoulou (Germany) on Greta Garbo
"She is just the number one!"
