We lost yet another diva this year. In what is surely a sign of the End of Days, Donna Summer joins Whitney Houston in diva heaven where they’re belting out hit after goddamn hit with Etta James and Amy Winehouse. To honor the undisputed Queen of Disco — itself the music of the gods — strap on your platform heels and call into work today. We’re exploring Summer’s greatest looks and her greatest songs — the extended 12″ versions, of course — because there’s nothing better than a backbeat that just won’t quit.

Vogue cover girl Adele wore a simple Armani Privé gown to the 2012 Grammy Awards last night, but paired the frock with an armful of blingtastic trophies. The British songstress swept the competition, taking home all six awards for which she was nominated, including Album of the Year for 21 and Record of the Year for “Rolling in the Deep.” She is only the second female to win six Grammys in one night, the first — of course — being Beyoncé in 2010. Ms. Adkins also debuted the return of her voice after vocal surgery by belting out “in the Deep.” Though this was undeniably Adele’s night, the untimely passing of Whitney Houston cast a large shadow over the show with Jennifer Hudson bringing down the house in a stirring rendition of “I Will Always Love You”

The beehive - just about as much fun you can have with a hairstyle since the days of Marie Antoinette. From the women of Mad Men to the late, great Amy Winehouse, this up-do is certainly a tall order… and we could never get enough. Today’s extreme beauty is a tribute to those larger-than-life beehives – the square, the braided, the striped and everything in between.
