- "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." This number took a sabbatical from the collective consciousness of the general public for a number of years until Jennifer Hudson brought it back after her performance in Dreamgirls. But, I never forgot it and have been performing it for years.
- "Beautiful." There's not a dry eye left in the house after I finish this one.
- "My Heart Will Go On." This one is usually prefaced by my dead-on recreation of Kate Winslet's scene in the freezing water after the Titanic has sunk. You know, the part where Rose croaks out "Jack, Jack" before realizing he's gone. At first tempted to let go of the board to which she's clinging and join Jack in an icy cold grave at the bottom of the Atlantic, Rose ultimately turns to the whistle that he put around her neck before he drowned. I've got that scene down pat. I even recreate Rose's initial feeble attempts at blowing air through the whistle.
- "Ariel's Song." OK, I don't think this is an actual song. It's the part in The Little Mermaid where Ariel has to give her voice to the evil sea witch. She starts singing "Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah," going on and on, and getting higher in pitch each time. This is really my pièce de résistance. I can take it to a place that no man should ever go. You'll have to trust me
- "I Will Always Love You." I'm talking about Whitney Houston's rendition, not the Dolly Parton original. Like any true diva, my right arm starts to defy gravity during this number, undulating up towards the heavens as I get further and further into the song. It's a performance that shouldn't be missed.
This is where the magic happens.

One Less Song in the Repertoire
I can't sing. That doesn't mean I'm not a diva, though. In fact, I have an entire diva repertoire that I'm prone to running through at any given moment. Here's my top five:
