From diva + -esque.

Adjective

divaesque (comparative more divaesque, superlative most divaesque)

  1. Reminiscent of a diva.
    • 2009 October 7, A. O. Scott, “Wallowing in Misery for Art’s Sake”, in New York Times:
      (“Tell Me Who You Are”), about a wealthy Malian family in crisis, has some fascinating Almodóvarian overtones, and it is enlivened by the extravagant, divaesque dignity of Sokona Gakou in the role of a woman on the verge of a marital breakdown.
