[milven]

Can you guys handle another Diana Ross Thread? If so, here is a Q & A with Diana Ross.

Milven - A day without a Diana Ross thread is like a day without pizza . . . er, sunshine.

And this one did the trick. Thanks!

Thanks for posting this! Love her answer on how she wants to be remembered.

Isn't this the same press interview that came out last year at the start of her tour?

Pleasant, transcribed, apparently her own reflections and not really an interview. Says really nothing she hasnt said before-vague flowery statements. I guess shes trying to drum up concert sales. Pleasant.

Not sure I've seen the interview before. Totally agree with her and enjoying life and enjoying the good things, be it your children, the weather or whatever makes it good for us. That's why Pharrell's song is a hit too.............HAPPY!

I thought this was interesting too...will we see a Ross/Rodgers reunion?

I enjoyed reading the interview, but I hope it didn't actually appear in the press this way with all the grammatical errors, etc.

Well, it's a transcript of a spoken interview or, if you must, a commentary. It's not a written Q/A so I wouldn't expect it to adhere to MLA guidelines.

Diana and Nile are long time friends. I'm sure they have spoken many times on the phone. I wonder what it was about this phone call that he thinks is "the best" "a dream" and implies that he has to "try" to fall asleep again.

I was thinking maybe he could pop in on a few tour stops and jam?

So glad after 50 plus years of being committed to doing shows that will make people feel bad and miserable she's decided to concentrate on making people feel good at her shows. There might be a few people here who could stand to benefit from being exposed to the new Diana Ross live concert aesthetic though some who've have long enjoyed her Joy Division before Joy Division ethos may be disappointed.

Enjoyable.
