00:24 Divorced.
00:27 Listen up, let me tell you a story.
00:30 A story that you think you've heard before.
00:33 You know you know our names and our fame and our faces.
00:37 Know all about the glories and the disgraces.
00:41 I'm done 'cause all this time, I've
00:44 been just one word in a stupid rise.
00:47 So I picked up a pen and a microphone.
00:51 History's about to get overblown.
00:55 Welcome to the show, to the history mix.
00:58 Switching up the flow as we add the prefix.
01:02 Everybody knows that we used to be six wives.
01:06 But now we're ex-wives.
01:12 Radio City, make some noise.
01:15 [APPLAUSE]
01:19 Divorced.
01:20 My name is Catherine of Aragon.
01:22 Was married 24 years.
01:24 I'm a paragon of royalty.
01:28 My loyalty is to the Vatican.
01:30 So if you try to dump me, you won't try that again.
01:33 Beheaded.
01:34 I'm that Berlin girl, and I'm a maxi.
01:38 I broke England from the church.
01:40 Yeah, I'm that sexy.
01:42 Why did I lose my head?
01:44 Well, my sleeves may be green, but my lipstick's red.
01:48 Died.
01:48 James Seymour, the only one he truly loved.
01:52 Rude.
01:53 When my son was newly born, I died.
01:56 But I'm not what I seem, or am I?
01:59 Stick around, and you'll suddenly see more.
02:02 Divorced.
02:02 Hickman and of Cleves.
02:05 Yeah.
02:06 When he saw my portrait, he was like--
02:08 Yeah.
02:09 But I didn't look as good as I did in my pic.
02:13 Funny how we all discussed that, but never Henry Little.
02:16 Pick up your ears.
02:17 I'm the Catherine who lost her head.
02:19 Beheaded.
02:20 With all my promiscuity outside of wed.
02:23 Lock up your husbands.
02:25 Lock up your sons.
02:26 Pay how it is here, and the fun's begun.
02:30 Survived.
02:31 I'm five down.
02:32 I'm the final wife.
02:34 I saw him till the end of his life.
02:37 I'm the survivor, Catherine Parr.
02:41 I bet you want to know how I got this far.
02:44 Well, tonight we'll let you know how we got this far.
02:48 Everybody knows that we used to be six.
02:51 Five.
02:52 But now we're one of a kind.
03:00 No category.
03:02 Too many years lost in this story.
03:05 We're free to take our crown and glory for my glory.
03:10 Yo, get your hands up.
03:12 We're six.
03:13 Hey!
03:14 Whoa, whoa, whoa.
03:16 We're six.
03:17 Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
03:19 We're six.
03:21 Whoa, whoa, four, five, four, three, two, one more minute.
