"Her incredible talent is second to none!"

Johanna (Denmark) on Judy Garland
"... because I've loved her ever since I was a little girl - for her role as Dorothy, in "The Wizard of Oz"!"

Dawn (USA) on Judy Garland
"... cause she rocks out!"

Myrna (USA) on Judy Garland
"She started it all. It's Judy, enough said."

Shirin (Canada) on Judy Garland
"Talent-- pure and simple!"

Alicia (USA) on Judy Garland
"She's stuck with me all my life. She's the only person who's never let me down. I can always count on her movies or records to be there for me."

Lily (UK (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the greatest singer ever!  And she was very, very cool."

Susan (USA) on Judy Garland
"That voice, those eyes, that life...  but also that intelligence, that spirit, that warmth."

Jerrie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She had more talent that anyone ever did and probably ever will, to borrow an adapted quote from Fred Astaire."

Diane (USA) on Judy Garland
"Have always loved her work!"

Jeff (USA) on Judy Garland
"The perfect combination of winsome charm, comedic timing, dramatic chops, and a stunning musical gift, make Judy Garland perhaps the greatest talent of the 20th century. In classics like "Meet Me In St. Louis", "The Clock", and "The Pirate", she is undeniably beautiful and effective.  Unlike many of her contemporaries, her performances seem fresh today and not of any particular era, which is why countless new fans continue to discover her work, almost 35 years after her death."

Rossana (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because the woman survived psychiatric problems in a time when problems such as them were not very understood or treated appropriately."

Lisa (USA) on Judy Garland
"Her well rounded true talent.  She never had to fake anything.  He golden, broad, belting voice and innocent beauty made her unpretentious and real life.  Yet untouchable in her timing, voice and love of her craft."

Sam (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the greatest performer ever! A true talent to our world. No one could ever have belonged on stage like her, she was born to do it."

Jay (USA) on Judy Garland
"A rare and raw talent even in the phoniest of Hollywood schlock... brilliant actress and more than brilliant singer."

Samanthacott (USA) on Judy Garland
"There is no one quite like her, no one quite so tragically real and no one quite so loveable."

Kelly (USA) on Judy Garland
"The voice! The mannerisms, her talent, her strength."

Alanna (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she's beautiful, her voice is beyond comparison, and I've loved her since I was a little girl."

Jurell (USA) on Judy Garland
"I love this woman.  She has talent oozing from her fingertips.  She is probably the only person I can think of who could've danced, sang or acted singularly, and would've been gravely successful.  Even after she was dying, she was in great voice, i.e. her Carnegie Hall concert.  She is, and always will be, beloved by many, and especially by me. She is amazingly talented.  She legitimately danced, sung and acted.  She did it well, and wasn't called "The World's Greatest Entertainer" for no reason.  I love her beauty as equally as I love her talent, but, above all, I love this woman's spirit."

Dawn  (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she could draw in more of an audience than all the great stars combined. Judy Garland made more comebacks... and great comebacks than any other singer. She was a true entertainer. Her songs were more powerfully performed than any other artist... even when her voice wasn't at its best, she knew how to hold an audience... and they loved every second of it!"

Katie (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is simply amazing! She was performing at age 2 and went all the way until her death. Eeryone knows at least one of her movies or her songs and she was so beautiful in her own way."

Joey (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland was my first teenage crush (even though at that time she had been gone for a few years)! I grew to love and adore Judy Garland throughout the years and I regret not meeting her! Judy Garland is #1!"

Laura (UK) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is a legend!"

Lucy (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because no matter what happened she stayed strong and she was able to admit when she was wrong and she was a role model for many women everywhere going through the same dramas as she was, she was simply an original."

Jo (Canada) on Judy Garland
"Her voice was unmatchable- and she was a wonderful actress. Judy Garland is one of those people we won't forget no matter how times change."

Amanda (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is definitely not from my time, but her acting and singing are the best I've ever seen. When I'm watching Judy act in a movie, I actually believe that she's that character. When she sings, I can tell that she means every little word. Judy Garland, in my opinion, is the only artist who was able to put her all into every performance. Judy Garland was not only an actress. She was a great singer, and that's what initially got her contract from MGM. She was built up as, "The Little Girl With The Big Voice". She's been called "Miss Showbiz", "The Queen of Musicals", "The World's Greatest Entertainer", and "The Best Entertainer of the 20th Century". There was more to her than her career in singing and acting. There was a real person, just like all the rest of us, and yes, she did have many troubles throughout her life. Unlike some of us today, she actually got through them, she persevered."

Pinu (Australia) on Judy Garland
"A fabulous artist - movie star, singer, entertainer - truly iconic in every sense of the word.  A singing legend who constantly rose above adversity to give the best her art had to give!"

Dolores (USA) on Judy Garland
"There are many other names on this site I could have cast a vote for, but Judy is pure magic- an extraordinary soul with a voltage greater than any of us mere mortals.  She is simply the best."

Keith (USA) on Judy Garland
"Ups, downs, coming back over & over. There is no one like her!"

Alberto (Mexico) on Judy Garland
"She's the best!"

Steph (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she rocks my world!"

Jynae (USA) on Judy Garland
"There is no one in the world with a voice like Judy's! It's the best thing since sliced bread! She deserves to be the diva of singing because she's the best! She makes you believe she's really feeling the way she's acting and make you feel like you're really there. No one can act as well as Judy! She's the diva! She was so involved with world war two and was so patriotic her whole life and really supportive of her country."

Joe (USA) on Judy Garland
"Just listen to her and you'll know why."

Judy (UK) on Judy Garland
"She's great! I love her films and songs. She deserves to win a Best Actress Ever Award."

Heidi (UK) on Judy Garland
"I love her! She's so sweet. I love her voice and she's a sweet person! I think she's a wonderful actress and loved her children."

Lauren (UK) on Judy Garland
"She's my fave diva because she's so special to me. I love her voice, songs and her as a person."

Armand (USA) on Judy Garland
"No explanation necessary...and why is Judy no where to be found in the singing Divas... what a disgrace!"

Donna (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the best entertainer in the world and always will be."

Jim (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is everything that exemplifies who and what a diva should be- talent, tragedy and triumph."

Ben (UK) on Judy Garland
"I am a huge fan of Judy Garland! I have seen most of her films she is everyone's fav."

Ted (Malaysia) on Judy Garland
"She is simply the best to me. Nobody can sing like her."

Paul (UK) on Judy Garland
"She is the true Diva."

Lily (UK) on Judy Garland
"She is the best singer ever. She can sing dance and act-- she is just the best."

Carey (USA) on Judy Garland
"I love Judy, she just is my favorite, and always will be. "She never was pretty, no not pretty, just beautiful" said by Jack Haley in the 1973 interviews about Judy (costar in the Wiz of Oz.)"

Amy (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she had the most amazing voice and talent out of any actress I've ever seen. She was for real."

Sarah (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland was a diva of course for her singing and acting ability but those aren't the real reasons. Judy was extremely sensitive and needed to be loved and adored by her directors and by her audiences.  She was also undisciplined in her financial life and used to charge things in department stores and not pay for them.  And sometimes she was vain, once stopping in front of a mirror before a concert, blowing kisses to herself and saying "You're a star! You're a star!"  Besides Judy's beautiful voice, there are other reasons.  She was a very sensitive person. Once, at an Army hospital where she was singing, she asked them not to put the most maimed soldiers up front because it upset her too much.  For a few years, she was very self-conscious about her appearance, wishing she looked like Lana Turner, and thought that she had no talent if a director didn't shower her with love.  And she was undisciplined - she smoke and drank more and more as she got older, which are no-nos for a singer.  Extremely sensitive, vain and undisciplined - the very definition of a prima donna or diva."

Rachel (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is my favorite because no matter how bad things got she was always able to rise above and give it her all."

Dorothy (Brazil) on Judy Garland
"Judy is an angel. I love her more than I can say right here, she (still) has the power to make ordinary people identify with her. And I think this is wonderful! It's pure magic! Her magic... She may not be beautiful, but she's an angel!"

Michael (USA) on Judy Garland
"Do I really need to answer this?  She could kick Taylor's ass."

Stacey (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is the girl from are block. We can understand her. And unlike some actresses she is believable. She is a natural talent. Not a false note, not even a false eyelash. She was real. And god almighty that girl could sing. She has the best voice I have heard in my life. Every single bit of beauty she has is not from makeup. The way I see it she is the prettiest girl ever. Sure she was big bosomed a little thick waisted but in a way she was gorgeous. And she is and will always be the world's greatest entertainer."

Judy (USA) on Judy Garland
".. because she has talent that no one else can even come close to, maybe?!"

Elizabeth (USA) on Judy Garland
"Well, for starters she was an amazing lady! She could sing, act, dance,and was a mother for crying out loud! She had talent way beyond her years. I just loved the way that she could at the drop of a hat make the audience laugh, and then turn around and make them cry. I think that everybody should vote for her! She was an interesting lady! Judy was an incredibly beautiful singer and actress. To be able to make people feel your emotions when you sing is God-given talent. She is bubbly on screen and amazing on stage. She is truly a legend."

Kelly (Canada) on Judy Garland
"She was the personification of the word "superstar".  Her talents (even in her decline) were such that she whipped her audiences into a worshipping frenzy.  She had power enough that she commanded a huge fee for her services, yet all her life people whom she thought she could trust cheated her.  She had great personal strength as well, but was never credited for being an intellectual."

Tess (USA) on Judy Garland
"One of the most talented singers the world has ever known!  There's no beating Judy's singing and acting.  She's amazing!"

Jon (USA) on Judy Garland
"Her singing is divine. She sings every song from the heart. Her music is very moving and she had the greatest personality."

Michelle (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is my favorite diva because she acted and sang with such vulnerability and love.  She opened her heart to all."

Judy (USA) on Judy Garland
"She worked the hardest and was the most unappreciated. Great voice, great actress and tried to rise above the Hollywood machine and raised lovely kids. Can't ask more from a diva."

Sarah (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is my favorite acting diva because she threw everything she was into her roles - soul, spirit and body.  When you see Judy act, you never say, "She's acting".  It seems real.  She's that good.  She deserves to be #1 not only because she was better than every other actress, but also because she genuinely cared about her audience.  To her, it wasn't just a job that brought in a paycheck.  She loved entertaining people and that makes her #1. Judy is my favorite singing diva because of her beautiful, natural, un-trained alto voice which touched millions of people (and continues to) with it's warmth and vulnerability.  Judy was one of the few singers who paid attention to the lyrics and who believed what she was singing so much that she made you believe it too.  She was a singer whose singing "acted".  Her voice could be tender and soft or brassy and powerful.  Tony Bennett called her the greatest singer of the 20th Century.  She won 5 Grammys and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.  She should be #1 on this list."

Cheryl (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was great excellent actress and performer. An inspiration. Beautiful intelligent and talented!"

Cormac (Ireland) on Judy Garland
"Pure tragedy."

Ashley (USA) on Judy Garland
"Her outstanding voice and charisma makes her a legend in diva history. She was also and always will be one of my favorite actresses to ever live!"

Rachel (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is my favorite dive because she is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. She was one of the best actresses too and she gave everything she had. I admire her greatly for that."

Jane (USA) on Judy Garland
"There is so much to say about her! Judy is very talented she can sing, dance, act, and she is very funny. The reason I love her is because she has an awesome voice and she is great in all of her films, also she is very beautiful."

Emily (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is my favorite diva because I think she is the best entertainer to ever walk the earth. She had the best voice, acting abilities, and was the funniest person ever."

Brie (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy's power over an audience - whether on stage or on the screen - is amazing. No one can do what Judy does. She sings (wow!), acts, and dances. Judy Garland has awesome talent! Her voice was not her only great asset, her movies, music, and humor added sincerity to her. If you haven't seen any of her movies besides the Wizard of Oz, check some out from your library; they're bound to have the greatest movies ever made!  I love all of her marvelous movies, but I'm sorry to say that I am too young to have seen her in concert. She's not like today's divas, she's real, lovable, and gorgeous (not plastic). There's no other one like her. Her voice captures the innocence, the wonder, the bravery of the good old days lost now to kids my age. Her voice is marvelous, and I am deeply hurt that your site does not offer her as a wonderful, talented, and loved singer. Her most famed song, Over the Rainbow, is in the top 10 favorite songs of the century and yet you still don't have her down as a fantastic singer. It's a shame that today, divas are based on their beauty and popularity. That should not be the reason one becomes a diva. The reason should be their voice, their personality, their contribution to both the entertainment business and to the public. The only reason Judy Garland has stuck around (even after 35 years) is because of her legacy she has left upon those who saw her perform; and like me, those that did not but were blessed to be able to hear her sing on CDs. Okay, so she didn't sing any of today's songs, but when she sang, it was like the entire world stopped. Her voice was incredible! She broke attendance records wherever she went (including outside the U.S.). She was absolutely marvelous."

Sarah (USA) on Judy Garland
"Her talent was even bigger then she could handle, and whatever depression in her real life, her movies made you smile."

Michelle (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the most talented, most giving performer.  Her presence in any movie or on any audio recording can completely change my mood. Judy Garland has the perfect voice... awe inspiring, filled with love and emotion. She could act, sing, dance.  She was a powerful performer!"

Karen Marie (Norway) on Judy Garland
"... because she is the best actress ever. She is the role!! Nobody could have done it better! There is something about her that makes me feel that she is so special!  I could vote for her every day!"

Linda (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was a Yankee Doodle Dandy!  She entertained the troops during World War II and worked at the Hollywood Canteen for service men.  She worked on the Kennedy election and even after her death a DVD of patriotic songs was released, to benefit September 11th victims and their families. Judy Garland is the best singer, dancer, actor and entertainer of the century!"

Cristina (Spain) on Judy Garland
"Just because she is the greatest of them all. She can hold our hearts in the palm of her hand."

Alex (USA) on Judy Garland
"Garland's voice is timeless. Although there are deserved divas on this site, I believe in another 50 years, no one will be recognized like Judy. She has never been forgotten and her contributions to not only the recording industry but the film world as well have been unparalelled. It is thought that, statistically, every single day you hear a Wizard Of Oz reference. That was quoted by the New York Times several years ago. Try it. See if you can walk around all day and not hear something or see something that doesn't evoke TWOZ. Not only because of the movie, but because of Garland's magnificent performance. Would the statistics be true if we watched Shirley Temple go down the yellow brick road?
Judy is not only the singer of the 20th Century, she is a pop icon as well."

Ally (UK) on Judy Garland
"She was so multi-talented! Her voice was the best female voice of the century, I think!"

Douglas (UK) on Judy Garland
"... because with her acting, she could make you laugh and cry at the same time, not only that but she could sing, was an excellent comedienne and broke records wherever she went. She lived and died for us and we have to return the favour, no matter how small."

Christopher (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she is the most talented (with Liza a close second) and I can't remember a time that I didn't love her. I've always thought that an interesting premise for a play in the vein of Kennedy's Children would be a play where adult gay men were asked one at a time what they were doing the day Judy Garland Died, I remember, and I was only 10."

Paul (UK) on Judy Garland
"For starring in The Wizard of Oz, a film way before its time that is still loved. It is my children's favourite."

Georgia (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was the greatest entertainer of all time, the best one-woman show! She could bring grown men to tears with her powerfully emotional voice. She was a kind and genuine person, very beautiful, inside and out! She has touched so many people with her spirit and love, and that to me is what makes a diva!"

Kevin (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she had class, was very talented and always had that innocent charm."

Jack (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because without question, she's the best there ever was."

Eric (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland invented the word diva.  She was the first movie performer to leave films and go to live performance.  People think Madonna is a diva because she is always reinventing herself.  Don't make me puke.  The year Madonna was born Judy Garland had already won an Oscar for films, a Tony for stage work, and was singing at the Met!"

Ron (USA) on Judy Garland
"She broke our hearts and broke all the rules.  She will live forever.  Forever."

Stephanie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the coolest ever! When I see Judy Garland it makes me think back to my childhood when I use to watch Wizard of Oz with my Grandpa. I have so many happy memories and it is all thanks to her and that movie!"

Bernadette (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland can make me laugh, and cry, and feel glad to be alive. She was so talented, and yet so down-to-earth about it -- just like any other girl. Her acting is phenomenal, and her singing goes way beyond thrilling. She makes me wish I had known her. Judy Garland was the greatest singer of all time. She put such emotion and such power into her songs-- no singer will ever be able to match her. Her singing makes you hold your breath in wonder, and turns you upside down inside. As Peggy Lee once said of her, "At her best, Judy Garland is better than any of us; at her worst, she is as good as any of us are at our best." Judy Garland may not be a first choice as a political diva; nonetheless, because she is my favorite diva of all time, I have to vote for her in this category. She did a lot of campaigning for President Kennedy when he was running for president. She also paid a tribute to him on her television show after he was assassinated in a heartbreaking rendition of Battle Hymn of the Republic. In addition, she did countless war benefits and rallies during World War II in her earlier years at MGM. I think she earned the title of political diva!"

Jeff (USA) on Judy Garland
"She can sing, act and dance. Talent beyond words and what a voice!"

Armand (USA) on Judy Garland
"There is hardly enough to say about Judy, she speaks for herself. The first true superstar and perhaps the last, there will never be another. Judy has it all glamour, drama and talent talent talent. She is what other divas are measured by! As the first true global superstar, Judy represents the style and drama that represents divaness. She is a beautiful woman and graced the covers of countless magazines, she was also a spokesperson for Revlon. Judy helped JFK win his presidency with her campaigning and also helped the war effort in WW2 with her USO touring."

Carolina (Portugal) on Judy Garland
"She is a great singer, dancer and actress. I love the whole picture: it inspires me to a kind of tenderness."

Meg (USA) on Judy Garland
"I picked Judy to do my biography book report on. Her life is amazing, and is full of seemingly small, but huge challenges that she endured quietly and overcame as she continued living her life. Judy's voice and acting skills were outstanding, she was easy to relate to, and her zest for life have won her a place in my heart, and my vote as my favorite diva."

Shannon (USA) on Judy Garland
"She can sing, dance and act like no other!"

Kayla (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was the best entertainer yet - when I hear her sing it just makes me wanna smile and she just lights up the screen."

Brooke (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is my favorite diva not just because of the way she struggled with her private life, but how she did everything and anything for her children. That is why Judy Garland is my favorite diva!"

Randall (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because of the personal pathos of her life--her untimely death, her many marriages and divorces, the booze and pills, the suicide attempts, the triumphant comebacks to stage and screen, and, above all, the way she interpreted a song's lyrics with the right blend of vulnerability and strength. Her vocal quality either modulated between a tremulous vibrato or soared the octaves to deliver a one-two punch. And she was equally at home with a ballad, torch song or up-tempo number. Her stage presence was considered electric by her adoring fans and critics alike. She was a remarkable woman with a dynamic personality that exuded genuine emotion--from sorrow and tears, to joy and laughter. While there have been and still are many marvelous singers, there will never be another Judy. Considered Miss Show Business and the World's Greatest Entertainer, she possessed the most talent across-the-board, bar none."

Alice (USA) on Judy Garland
"The reason why she is because she touched millions of people's hearts and if she still was alive I would tell her how much she meant to me and her other fans. Also, I love Liza Minnelli."

Bev (USA) on Judy Garland
"I've been a Garland fanatic since 1954, when I was 11 years old. Something about her vulnerability that struck a cord in my soul very early in life."

Hayley (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she was the greatest entertainer of all time, plain and simple."

Brian (USA) on Judy Garland
"I just love her because well there's just something about her, she could take you to places you couldn't even think about going, and she's so glamorous, and perfect."

Nicole (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is my favorite diva because on her show you can see her great sense of humor and in her movies you see her remarkable ability to slip into her role and make you believe. Most of all when she sings she makes you forget all your troubles. For that moment you watch her shine with all her power and she brings you into the song. Once you hear her sing you'll never forget her magical voice."

Angela (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is my favorite diva because she has the best voice that I have ever heard and starred in the most treasured movie of all time. as far as I'm concerned no one has nor ever will compare with her. Even decades after her death she is talked about all the time. She is really a legend."

Samantha (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was the most talented singer the world has ever seen and a exquisite actress. There is just no one like her."

Brianna (USA) on Judy Garland
"She was simply the greatest. She had more talent than anyone."

David (Hong Kong) on Judy Garland
"She's simply fantastic! Her voice, her expression, and her singing reach deep into our hearts and touch our souls."

Jessica (USA) on Judy Garland
"Not only is Judy the best singer to ever sing a not, but she is also the best actress to ever grace a movie screen. From the Andy Hardy movies to A Star is Born Judy has shown remarkable acting ability. She has won an honorary Oscar, Grammy awards and a special Tony award. She was the queen of all comebacks. Whenever anyone thought she was out she would make another dramatic comeback. And through all this she was addicted to pills and never let that get in her way. She is an amazing actress, singer and women and deserves to be the #1 diva."

Olivia (USA) on Judy Garland
"She has the most beautiful, powerful voice and was so capturing in The Wizard of Oz."

Rodney (USA) on Judy Garland
"Her voice is that of the ultimate diva. She is the greatest talent ever to grace the face of our planet. She is gorgeous, and wonderfully talented. There will never be another like her."

Stephanie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is one in a million... talented and beautiful! I admire her work and she is my role model!"

Kelly (USA) on Judy Garland
"She's a classic! I love her. She brings a smile to my face."

Julie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is my favorite diva because her talent is multifaceted. In comparison the others all lack something."

Chelsea (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is without a doubt a legend, and a diva. Her beauty and talent will never be forgotten."

Jessica (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she kicks so much ass!"

Grace (UK)) on Judy Garland
"The Wizard of Oz was the first film I saw when I was younger and I still watch it with complete attention today. And I think this is only possible because of the fantastic Judy Garland!"

Laura (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland has paved the way, despite her hardships and personal battles, to show female actresses how the business really is."

Lauren (USA) on Judy Garland
"I have grown up to her music; even though I am young I know what good music is.  I have watched all her movies and seen all her triumphs on struggles on the documentaries.  She deserves to be a diva.  She is one."

Kelly (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she has an awesome voice.  She has a wonderful sense of humor.  And she has touched my life in more ways the one.  However, I am a bit partial, because she is my guardian angel."

Paul (Australia) on Judy Garland
"She is interesting, beautiful, cute, has an inner beauty, charisma and soft vulnerability."

Miska (USA) on Judy Garland
"She's just wonderful - with a wit, charm, and vulnerability that truly makes people love her."

Candice (UK) on Judy Garland
"She was the most talented performer of all time!  She was attracted to all the wrong things in life which was why she sang with such vulnerable intensity."

Brian (USA) on Judy Garland
"Do you really need a reason?  Just listen to the Carnegie Hall CD if you are in doubt!"

Jessie (USA) on Judy Garland
"The Greatest Entertainer of All Time! Her beauty, talent, voice, acting ability, sense of humor, everything leaves me feeling wonderful.  She is magical.  She is the diva.  No one will ever surpass her. She's great.  Forever."

Renee (USA) on Judy Garland
"There will never be another like her."

Monica (Mexico) on Judy Garland
"There will never be another talent like Judy's. She was great at acting, singing, and she was a wonderful person. You'll never find that energy and feeling with another actress, never, she was the best! "The rest of us will be forgotten, never Judy" (Frank Sinatra)"

Caitlin (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is eternal... the embodiment of musical genius and song.  She will truly always be remembered as the world's greatest entertainer."

James (USA) on Judy Garland
"No one else even comes close!"

Wayne (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy is my favorite diva because she had it all. She had the warmth and the sincerity as well as the drama. Judy was the pinnacle of entertainment. There wasn't anything she couldn't do and do well if she really wanted to do it. She just had to want to. She needed a little help sometime with a kind word and some reassurance that she was a person as well as a money making commodity. She had the voice the acting perfected as well as the dancing and the most contagious laugh you would ever encounter. Thank God for all the great works she left us!"

Brittany (USA) on Judy Garland
"I just wanted to say that your web site is one of the best ever! I love coming here and seeing all the awesome updates. My favorite diva is Judy Garland, and I love all the stuff you have on her on your site. Keep up the awesome work!"

Heather (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she had the best voice in the whole world. She is the best actress in the whole world and such an inspiration to everyone because she was such a trooper through all the hard times. She will never be forgotten. She is the best! And don't forget it!"

N.N. (USA) on Judy Garland
"Besides a voice that when healthy could have sung anything, and acting talents among the best, no one even comes close to what she was capable of doing to an audience even if her voice, which was erratic, as an adult was not in good shape."

Lindsay (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is the world's most beloved entertainer.  She has given me many hours of enjoyment of watching her movies and listening to her songs.  She also gives me the inspiration I need musically for my music.  It is almost unexplainable how talented she was, and that is why she is my favorite diva."

Loli (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland was a kind and generous person despite her own personal set backs, she really was a courageous woman who tried to be everything at once. But, honestly, I adore Miss Judy Garland really due to the way she treated her children and how she doted upon them. This was the ultimate beauty within her."

Robert (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because I am gay and all gay men are required to love Judy Garland."

Thomas (USA) on Judy Garland
"She simply was the best of the 20th century... period!"

Renee (USA) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland is my favorite because she has it all. She is a great singer and actress and she's beautiful! She is awe inspiring and her story is tragic. I feel her three best movies are 'The Wizard of Oz", 'Meet me in St. Louis' and "A Star is Born'."

Amy (USA) on Judy Garland
"... because she was the most loving, warm, generous, entertaining, talented, beautiful, funny, friendly, brave, enduring, strong, motherly, vivid, intense woman that ever lived. She was the world's greatest entertainer and quoting Sid Luft "The best woman God ever created." I love all the divas and old movie stars, but Judy is the best one of all."

Katie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She did it all - sang (beautifully), acted (wonderfully), and danced (marvelously!).  She was a favorite at the movies, on television, as well as on the radio.  She worked non-stop from the time she was 2 1/2 years old.  Now that's a career!  Judy Garland was simply the greatest entertainer of all time!"

F.T. (USA) on Judy Garland
"She definitely fits the criterion of staying with one after she is gone."

Derek (Canada) on Judy Garland
"I believe that Judy is the ultimate diva. You can conjure her up by naming a movie (Wizard of OZ), naming a song (Over The Rainbow), or just saying 'Judy'. She can have her moments of Divadom, as when she was to appear at a concert for some veterans. Lorna told her that they had people on stretchers. Judy asked how did they get in, Lorna told her they the vets were wheeled in. Judy replied "If they can wheel them in, they can wheel them out." Even 30 years after her death, Judy is still making headlines. The recent ABC mini-series was the highest rated of the season, the re-issue of Carnegie Hall is hitting the top of many charts. Beyond Dorothy there is an icon who has survived beyond her own years. A diva whose voice continues to enthrall new devotees everyday."

I.D. (USA) on Judy Garland
"She could act, sing, dance and had a great sense of humor.  Very generous to her guests on her TV series and always has a smile on her face in photographs (Hard to imagine because of the problems she was dealing with in her personal life). Just a classy lady. Diva #1! Listen to Judy - Live!  or At Carnegie Hall  or The One & Only.  Really Listen.  You will cry when you connect with the emotion she puts into her songs."

Larry (USA) on Judy Garland
"World's Greatest Entertainer hands down - Judy can do everything.  Comedy, drama, musical you name it."

Ondine (USA) on Judy Garland
"That voice is simply the essence of human emotion, both its texture and her ability to interpret a song dramatically."

Andy (Canada) on Judy Garland
"Judy Garland has the most amazing voice out of anyone on that list - and she isn't even on it! If you don't believe me, purchase the 40th Anniversary of Judy Garland at Carnegie Hall."

Sally (USA) on Judy Garland
"No one comes close to the wit, charm, heart, and pure talent that is evident in any Judy Garland performance.  She is a complete entertainer loved by her peers, song writers and everyone who appreciates pure genius. Judy Garland is an actors actor who makes everyone around her look good but steals the show without even trying.  Her sense of timing was naturally perfect.  Her understanding of character flawless - totally believable!"

Kenneth (USA) on Judy Garland
"This diva is the world's greatest entertainer. She takes my breath away every time."

T.T. (USA) on Judy Garland
"Others pale to her lasting talent."

Judi (USA) on Judy Garland
"Mrs. Norman Main, from over the rainbow, yet - what more could one possibly want? Beautiful, the voice, & smart as a whip.  From the Palace to the Palladium to Carnegie Hall - she had no peer, a voice that could melt the polar ice caps, a look that could stop your heart."

Leah (USA) on Judy Garland
"The total emotion, passion and beauty in her voice is something no one has ever been able to capture or duplicate. She was probably the best singer in the entertainment world."

Rob (USA) on Judy Garland
"All you have to do is watch her A Star Is Born...  says it all!"

Mark (Canada) on Judy Garland
"There's no one else who compares."

Patrick (USA) on Judy Garland
"Oh, please.  She's the most gifted entertainer of the 20th Century, for starters, her life is such an incredible saga, and she seemed motivated by generosity and love, not self-centered self-absorption."

Debbie (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the most amazing singer, actress, mother and comedian the world will ever know. She is my role model. She could touch the world like no-one else could. She was a gift from God."

Maddy (USA) on Judy Garland
"Most talented, kindest, wittiest, of them all."

Brittany (USA) on Judy Garland
"I love Judy Garland for her voice, good nature and all the shit she went through. When she was young Baby Gumm was the star of the show she did with her 2 sisters. I love the fact that she beat Shirley Temple out for the role of Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz.  In my opinion she was the greatest diva of them all."

Danielle (Canada) on Judy Garland
"She is my favorite diva because, although she has been gone for many years, she still manages to inspire so many people around the world... she makes people believe in their dreams... she is truly the best entertainer this world has ever seen... like Frankie said "All of us will be forgotten, never Judy."

Vicki (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the best singer/actress/comedian to ever walk on earth. Her carefree ways, and pure strong talent was like no others. She is the ultimate diva!"

Lisa (USA) on Judy Garland
"She could sing, dance, act, play a few instruments, piano, she was funny, smart... she could do everything. She kicks some major butt! She's the greatest there ever was and ever will be."

John (USA) on Judy Garland
"She is the ultimate, no questions she is the ultimate."

Jenny (USA) on Judy Garland
"Throughout all the problems she faced in her life, she kept her head held high and did whatever it was she had to do.  She never quit, even when it must have seemed there was no way to go on.  Besides, the talent that radiated from within and poured out through every pore with such power has rocked the minds and hearts of people not only from her era, but people like myself who became fans long after she died.  It takes a real diva to keep gaining fans 30 years after your death!"
