DIANA ROSS-post 9/11 "God Bless America"

[Roberta75]

New York has always been a huge market for Diana and this was another landmark, stand up, hit the spot moment for her and New York. There was no reason other than the usual obsession to start trying to minimize it away or belittle it. We, especially Roberta, would have loved it if it were Martha. Marv would have whizzed himself if it were Mary and we all would have been pleased. The same respect should be accorded the lady who popularized Motown.

The difference being jobeterob I would have praised Martha Reeves without trashing Liza Minneli, Diane Ross or Mary Wilson and I would have kept the thread respectful in honor of those who die on 9/11. To trash Miss Minelli and call her a pill adict and to trash Miss Ross and call her a drunk who has vodka enemas is beyond disgusting and to turn a 9/11 healing performances by Liza and Diane into another RTL rehash is pitiful and shameful and disgusting and some on this thread ought to hang they heads in shame and ask God to forgoive them. Ralph out to ban Jimi, Marv and jillfoster for they vile comments.

3000 people died on Sptember 11 and all you care about is elevating and tearing down the performers who sang in the mindset of healing. smh in disgust.
