''Diva Starz'' were a line of dolls created and released by Mattel in the early 20th century.

The toyline follows a group of teenagers who "know what's up" and are "in-the-know" about everything. The girls are:

* Alexa (voiced by Creator/DebiDerryberry), the fashion loving queen who's "your personal expert on style".
* Nikki (voiced by Joanna Rubiner), a fanatic of sports and hobbies.
* Summer (voiced by Creator/AmberHood), a lover for nature and the outdoors.
* Tia (voiced by MC Lyte), a techno whiz who is into anything tech-savvy.
* Miranda (voiced by Creator/TaraStrong), the SixthRanger who "loves her new friends". Replaced Summer in the third wave.

The doll line was shut down in 2004 due to poor sales.

!! Tropes:

* AmusementPark: Fashionland, the amusement park the girls visit in "Fashionland Fun", known for giving its riders makeovers.
* {{Animesque}}: The art style for the girls. This got toned down slightly in Wave 2 and almost completely averted in Wave 3.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Alexa, Nikki and Summer, respectedly.
* FirstDayOfSchoolEpisode: "Fashion Emergency" has the Divas shop at the mall and try on clothes for their first day of school the following day.
* FourGirlEnsemble: Alexa's the sassy one, Nikki's the brash one, Summer's the sweet one, and Tia's the smart one.
* GratuitousFrench: Jacquez, the salon stylist in "The Big Dance", shows shades of this.
* GroupPictureEnding: "The Big Dance" ends with the Divas and their dance dates getting their picture taken.
* OriginsEpisode: The webisode "Meet Us at the Mall" shows how the girls first met at the mall by unexpectedly bumping into each other and mixing up their stuff.
* PutOnABus: Summer disappears from Wave 3, and Miranda takes her place. According to Tia in "Pop Star Dreams", she's on an ocean rescue mission with her family.
* RapunzelHair: All the girls' hair reaches down to their knees.
* StrictlyFormula: Each webisode goes as follows. The Diva Starz go about their lives, then something fun sparks up the plot. This then transitions to a minigame the player can choose to play or skip to advance the story. The ending of the webisode is different depending on the results of said minigame.
* TagLine: "We know what's up!" Slightly changed to "We know what's ''stylin'!''" in Wave 3.
* VirtualPaperDoll:
** In "Dress 'Em and Do the Walk", you get to choose which outfits and hairstyles the Divas get to wear for their fashion show.
** In "The Big Dance", you get to give the Divas makeovers for their big dance later.
** In "Fashion Emergency", you pick which outfits each Diva gets to wear for their first day of school.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: The girls' designs for Wave 3 look larger and more realistic, and their heads are smaller, as if they gotten a bit older.
