'''Chanterelle''' (also known as the '''Pop Diva''') is a beautiful [[Toad (species)|Toad]] singer who performs in the port of [[Toad Town]] at [[Club 64]]. She is named after the {{wp|Cantharellus|chanterelle}}, a species of edible mushroom. ''Chanter'' is also French for "to sing."
The '''Pop Diva''' (whose real name is '''Chanterelle''') is a [[list of characters|character]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. She is a purple [[Toad (species)|Toad]] singer. Her given name is a play on "{{wp|Cantharellus|chanterelle}}," a species of edible mushroom, and "chanteuse," a female singer of popular songs who frequents nightclubs.


==History==
The Pop Diva is a singer who usually performs at [[Club 64]]. However, she has become very depressed since [[Princess Peach]] had been kidnapped and lost her ability sing. However, her vocal ability is regained after Mario obtains the [[Lyrics]] with the [[Melody (item)|Melody]] added to them. Once she is given the composition, the Pop Diva sings in tune for Mario and rewards him the [[Attack FX D]] Badge. Mario can request the Pop Diva to sing the tune again, as desired. Later, the Pop Diva and two of her Toad instrumentalists appear in the credits, conducted by the [[Master Poet]]. The very song is played at "The End" screen for some time while Peach and Mario observe the fireworks at the [[Mario Bros.' House]].
===''Paper Mario''===
[[File:popdivasprite.gif|thumb|left]]
During the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]'', she becomes severely depressed after the kidnapping of [[Princess Peach]], rendering her unable to sing. [[Mario]] has to bring Chanterelle a song by having an item called [[Lyrics]], written by the [[Master Poet]]. He must then find [[Toad in the Desert]] to have music added to the lyrics in order to obtain the [[Melody (item)|Melody]], which Chanterelle requires to reawaken her natural vocal ability. There is no clue provided by the game as where the composer lives; the lyrics only say they must be taken to a composer "somewhere in the world." When Mario manages to give Chanterelle the completed composition, she sings for Mario beautifully and in tune. She then rewards Mario with an [[Attack FX D]] badge. Afterwards, the player can ask her to re-sing the song again for Mario and the Club 64 patrons as many times as desired.  


She later appears with her two Toad instrumentalists, conducted by the Master Poet, in the game's credits. The song is also heard at the very end of the game with the "The End" screen for a while when [[Princess Peach]] and Mario are at [[Princess Peach's Castle|the castle]] overlooking the fireworks.
The Pop Diva's song becomes a hit, with an instrumental version of it appearing the Hot Hits Music Station. The song can be listened to by Mario in [[Koopa Village]], in the house of the radio-loving Koopa, who calls the song moving and that it brings him to tears whenever he listens to it.

*Chanterelle's song apparently becomes a hit song as an instrumental version of it appears on the "''Hot Hits Station''", a radio station Mario can listen to at the radio loving Koopa's house in [[Koopa Village]] (the station itself becomes available after Chanterelle's side quest is complete as it only plays that one song). When the station is playing, the radio loving Koopa says the song is so moving it bring tears to his eyes every time he hears it.
