==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:PM Pop Diva screenshot.png|thumb|Pop Diva singing at Club 64.]]
During the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]'', the Pop Diva is introduced as a singer that performs at [[Club 64]], located in [[Toad Town]]'s port on its westernmost side. It is established that she has become severely depressed after the kidnapping of [[Princess Peach]], rendering her unable to sing. [[Mario]] has to bring the Pop Diva 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 the Pop Diva requires to reawaken her natural vocal ability. There is no clue provided by the game as to where the composer lives; the lyrics only say they must be taken to a composer "somewhere in the world." When Mario manages to give the Pop Diva 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 [[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.

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