As La Cieca hardly thinks she needs tell you, among the attributes of a prima donna necessary to the success of a performance of Adriana Lecouvreur are morbidezza, il sacro fuoco, voce di petto and of course the ability to wear a turban. And surely you do realize that, sad to say, not everyone can pull off a turban.Â
On the other hand, some people look right at home in a turban:
Which brings La Cieca to our competition. La Cieca challenges you to choose a current diva (operatic or otherwise) and then adorn her with a turban using online utility The Turbanizer. Email the resulting photo to your doyenne at lacieca@parterre.com.
La Cieca will select the top five finalists and you, the cher public, will decide upon the most gloriously beturbaned femme of them all, and the winner will receive an amazon.com
Here’s an example (created using the Turbanizer) to get you started:

Melot’s, is that Bubbles as the Queen of Shemakhan?

#16 Wowkle – Try this link for a photo of Callas in a turban in 1968. It’s hard to tell that it’s her, but the caption says it is. (The caption won’t show up in this link.)
Sorry – I couldn’t get that to hyperlink! (It’s from Getty Images.)
Despina – the link works, it is DEfinitely a turban wore by La Divina, facing Liz Taylor and Richard Burton. did Burton ever like Opera? does Liz know anything about opera? hmmmm, why are they with La Divina?
Ah yes, Lindoro. I’d missed the clue — the word ‘cesare’ in the URL …
Wow, Despina. That’s a turban-and-a-half that Callas has on there. She even outdoes Marco Vinco (see my comment at #21).
Brenda Dickson knows how to rock a turban!
