WELCOME TO THE DIVA WEB SITE

This month DIVA celebrates its 15th anniversary with a fresh new look and loads of new content. We've got exclusive interviews with Sarah Waters, new poet laureate Carol Ann Duffy, the Gossip's other lesbian, Hannah Blilie, Torchwood's Eve Myles and the big sister herself, Whoopi Goldberg. Plus: how to stay safe online, why you always go out with the same woman, gay shame, gay icons and cartoonist Kate Charlesworth tackling the lesbian age gap. And we know DIVA's not the only one that's changed - 15 readers tell us what's been going on with them since 1994. Don't miss the July issue of DIVA, on sale now at WHSmith, Borders, Tesco and all good newsagents! For a taster, click on the cover image (left).
