The Prima Donna is the Alpha Bitch of show business. Her talent and beauty are matched only by her ego, and she is prone to making infuriating demands of her producers (like demanding an Unlimited Wardrobe), and God help the poor sap in a position of servitude to her. As a performer, she will make sure everyone knows it is her show and she rules the stage with an iron fist. She never considers that she may be past her prime, or that her nasty attitude could be bringing down the morale of those around her. Often she'll be considerably meaner backstage than any of her famous roles. Expect her to put on a sweet facade for interviews and publicity appearances, but rumors of her real personality will always abound. The Prima Donna is etymologically and stereotypically female, but men are just as likely to act this way, and the word's meaning gradually became less specific through overuse. It's Italian for "first lady" and originally referred to the lead female singer in an opera company. Evidently, enough of them embodied the traits described here that the word has gained a decidedly negative connotation. Nowadays it refers to any individual, regardless of gender or field of expertise, who is immensely talented but insufferably egotistical. The term "diva," which is Italian for "goddess" and referred to a seasoned and respected female singer, has some of the same associations with ego and entitlement, though this isn't universal, as The Diva trope is mostly framed in a positive context. A Prima Donna actor often causes Hostility on the Set. Compare It's All About Me and Taking Advantage of Generosity. See also Prima Donna Director, who acts much the same but is running the show rather than just acting in it. Also see Bridezilla for when it's a bride — performer or not — who behaves like this during her Big Day but can be a decent person most other times. |

"Primadonna" by Marina Diamandis is actually a subtle deconstruction. Despite the bubbly music and haughty lyrics, there are quite a few lyrics suggesting the titular "primadonna girl" is not actually as happy with her life as she sounds, with those themes being expanded on for the rest of the album. | |

Jamila Vardek is the prima donna of the Theatre Royale in The Climax, and bitterly jealous of the up-and-coming new soprano Angela Klatt. (She essentially fills the role of Biancarolli from Phantom of the Opera (1943), of which this film was originally intended to be sequel.) | |

Total War: Warhammer II has the Ghost Pirate Cylostra Direfin. A lifetime of not only being a member of the notoriously spoiled and self-centered upper classes of Bretonnia, but also being known as the greatest singer in all of Bretonnia, possibly the greatest in the World, and so renowned that even the Phoenix King of the High Elves wanted to hear her sing, left her with quite the ego. Hell, upon her watery demise during a storm as she was on her way to Ulthuan, she was not horrified or saddened that she would meet her cruel and untimely end, but furious beyond reasoning that the greatest concert of her life was cut short. Death only made that ego mightier. | |

Shawn Michaels was such a primadonna, in and out of the ring, on and off camera, that people largely forgot all about his jobber run in the National Wrestling Alliance, his Tag Team with Marty Jannetty that imitated The Rock 'n' Roll Expressnote Though people definitely remember Shawn breaking up the team and even his stint as a Gorgeous George who feuded with Rick Martel and posed for Playgirl magazine. Mostly what is remembered that Michaels was a whiny but talented wrestler who ruined the careers of several other wrestlers, quit the business, lost his smile and returned to atone for the wrongs he did after helping train several better-behaved wrestlers like Bryan Danielson, London and Kendrick. Incidentally, Shawn sang too, but he wasn't any good at singing. | |

Misaki from Death Parade is an actress with this type of personality. Though she's a Struggling Single Mother who works for her kids, her two older children see her as neglectful. Misaki's attitude is the reason she was murdered. She slapped a worker of hers and the woman hit her tipping point, strangling Misaki. | |

In Miraculous Ladybug episode "Queen Banana", Chloe uses her father's influence to force herself into the film that the other students are putting on, and then immediately becomes one of these, making increasingly ridiculous (utterly ridiculous!) demands and forcing script rewrite upon rewrite. When the prop hastily created for the villain (who she made up out of nowhere) isn't realistic enough for her liking, she decides to head home for some "beauty sleep". The students take this opportunity to shoot the film as originally written — and without Chloe. To make things more infuriating for all involved, she had initially refused to be part of the film at all, only suddenly deciding that she needed to be the star upon realizing her half-sister Zoe had been cast as the main heroine. | |

Shadow of the Vampire is set in an Alternate Universe where Max Schreck (the main actor in Nosferatu) is an obnoxious and demanding Prima Donna who constantly overacts and hijacks the movie from the director, F. W. Murnau. Oh, and he’s also a real vampire that eats any cast or crew members he deems to be unnecessary. | |

Pornstar 'Trixie Vixen' (she had it legally changed) from The Dresden Files. A brainless Grade-A bitch who absolutely believes that anyone that isn't her is worthless - the very last person who should have any kind of access to reality-warping magical powers. Her fellow cast-members put up with her for two reasons; 1) she's currently a very popular star, 2) she's currently a very popular star, but she's fast approaching the end of the time when she's young and good-looking enough to act in the porn business and is far too stupid to move on to direct or produce, so the more long-term workers know they won't have to put up with her much longer. Unsurprisingly, as soon as she's in the room with the novel's Big Bad, who also has a massive ego but is legitimately dangerous, she annoys him and he kills her without a thought. | |

Dame Timpani in Maskerade is the counterpart to Carlotta in The Phantom of the Operanote The programme calls her a diva, which Nanny Ogg thinks makes sense because the singing's good training for holding your breath.. Although she gets even less page time than her counterpart in the original book, it's implied she has the same dislike of Christine as Carlotta in the musical: | |

Razzberry Jazzberry Jam: Billie is a downplayed example, as while she does have a large ego and is the Jazzberry who cares the most about fame and stardom, she still gets along well with her bandmates, and while she does want everything to be absolutely perfect she’s willing to put in the effort to make them perfect herself, rather than demanding other people do it for her. Her standards of perfection are also applied as much to herself as to the world around her. Bonita from “A Bonnie Tale� is a classically trained clarinet (not a clarinetist, a clarinet) who hates anything she considers “frivolous� (such as her brother Woody’s tendency of making up extremely improbable stories of adventures he supposedly had) and looks down on the Jazzberries for performing without sheet music. Fortunately, by the end of the episode Buddy has convinced her to lighten up. Princess Persephone from “A Royal Pain� really lives up to the episode’s title. Within minutes of her introduction, she manages to soundly out-diva Billie by taking over the latter’s room (which is apparently the only dressing room in the House Of Jam “fit for a princess�), and then she starts banning the Jazzberries one-by-one from their performance that night. She does see the error of her ways once she bans every Jazzberry and is faced with the prospect of performing completely alone, however. |

Mike Shiner from Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) is a classic Prima Donna actor. Mike fights Riggan's direction throughout the film, trashes the set after realizing they aren't using real alcohol and traumatizes his co-star because he thinks an impromptu sex scene will make their on stage relationship more realistic. He also steals a story Riggan told him to make himself sound better in an interview. Despite the friction, Riggan keeps him on, and they learn to work together. The casting of Norton was a bit of a cheeky Actor Allusion, because Norton is himself infamously hands-on and difficult for directors to work with if he doesn't agree with them. | |

"Face" Loran in the X-Wing Series makes a few cryptic references to having run into one particularly bad prima donna in his career as a child actor.

Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure: Sharpay is utterly blown out of the water by Amber Lee Adams, the film's villain. Sharpay's an emotional teenager who could conceivably grow out of it; Amber Lee, by contrast, is a professional prima donna. Just one example: when she gets the lead role in a Broadway musical about a dog, she spends the film growing increasingly paranoid that the audience will be coming for the dog, not her, and ultimately, on the day of the very last dress rehearsal, orders the entire script rewritten to remove the dog. | |

During his time starring Ada Azab Dalam Cerita, Alexi keeps making selfish demands and follows his own schedule, something the director, Akbar, only tolerates because his fame is good for ratings. After the more reasonable Juna becomes a co-star, it doesn't take long before Akbar fires Alexi. | |

Dr. STONE: Lillian Weinberg's first appearance in Chapter 43 shows her whining about the cramped conditions on the space station and treating the actual astronauts like crap. It's quickly subverted, however, and she's shown to be a very down-to-Earth girl who put on that attitude as a joke. | |

The actress Seina from Kaiju Girl Caramelise. She is first seen as Arata leaves his interview on the news show that she was originally scheduled to appear on that day, berating her manager Koyama for the mix-up. When Arata defends Koyama and says it's his fault for her missing her TV spot, she smacks him on the forehead with the rim of the hat she's wearing, complains about all the planning she put into appearing on the show, and then uses Crocodile Tears to make him feel guilty before coercing him into talking her up to the producer of the show. | |

Pee-wee's Big Adventure: The child actor working on the film that acquired Pee-wee's bicycle is revealed to be a prima donna between takes, snarling abuse at the director and driving his costars mad, all of which evaporates when the camera is rolling. | |

The Phantom of the Opera: Carlotta. She even gets a song called "Prima Donna" as the new theatre owners suck up to her and assure her that they won't let this "Opera Ghost" dictate how she should be treated; even after the Phantom humiliates her on stage and she's forced into a minor role in his Don Juan Triumphant, she never lets up on this attitude. | |

Miss Piggy is frequently portrayed as making huge demands on her fellow Muppets, and automatically assuming that she has to be the star. Whether her fame and/or talent actually matches her self-opinion or she's a Small Name, Big Ego varies considerably depending on the production. | |
