The newly revamped VH1 Divas show is getting more divalicious with every new artist added to the already A-list lineup. The latest addition is Jennifer Hudson, who will join fellow "American Idol" alums Jordin Sparks and Kelly Clarkson for the big show on September 17, hosted by none other than former "American Idol" judge, Paula Abdul.
And as if it that weren't enough girl power for one stage, VH1 announced that Sheryl Crow, Cyndi Lauper and Melissa Etheridge will also be joining divas Miley Cyrus, Adele and Leona Lewis.
When the show airs live from the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York, the night's presenters will include Lauren Conrad, Whitney Port, Toni Braxton and Kathy Griffin. Also scheduled to appear are actor Ryan Kwanten, who plays Jason Stackhouse on "True Blood," and the cast of "Fame."
In August, Sparks talked to MTV News about how excited she was to make her Divas debut in the first such concert since one held back in 2004 in Las Vegas. "I'm so stoked," she said. "I remember hearing about the Divas shows and watching them when I could, but I usually had to go to sleep when I was in school, so I couldn't usually watch them. ... I'm so excited. It's going to be so much fun."
Sparks was also thrilled about getting the chance to see Abdul again. "I'm so excited to see her. I can't wait to give her a huge hug," she said. "I love Paula."
