Synopsis:
Aphrodite was made famous back in the day for performing “the” timeless love song of the era. The song that everyone plays at their weddings, in every sappy commercial for diamonds or rings or puppies or soldiers coming home. It made her a ton of money, but Aphrodite “hates” this song. She’s now the meanest judge on Pop The Question but her life changes when Brianna becomes the breakthrough contestant, exuding love and purity. When Aphrodite reluctantly becomes her mentor, she does everything possible to steer her away from love and love anthems. Due to Aphrodite’s sour attitude, Aphrodite is visited by three spirits who take Aphrodite on a journey through love and Christmas past, present and future to try and shake her out of her funk and let love back in. —VH1 Television
Quick Thoughts:
I was not quite sure what to think about “A New Diva’s Christmas Carol”, especially as the original “Diva’s Christmas Carol” is rather iconic. Unfortunately, this attempt at a remake to appeal to younger audiences wasn’t as enjoyable. Sure, the three ghosts are sassy divas themselves, but they changed so much of the iconic Christmas Carol that it’s almost a different story! It still is a queer holiday film though, as the talented contestant winner Brianna is a lesbian who’s partner is quite ill. Overall, it’s not horrible – but I’d rather watch something else. Maybe you’ll enjoy it instead.
