Diana is recording another album?
In Canada, our Queen was Elizabeth and not everyone thought it was appropriate that we had a Queen in this era.
Give some details on the new album.
I sort of understand the first sentence/question; however, I am lost as to what the rest of this post means. Who is "they're"? And what does "what do we get a kick in the ass" mean?Quote:

Does Cher do the almost continuous touring Diana does?
Comparing these artists is never wise.
If you look at Bollboards Top Female Vocalists of all time, Diana is 10 and 5 with the Supremes - Cher is 16. Both great but that shows impact.
I’d question whether Diana even wants to do more. Perhaps for those that want more, a move to Beyonce, Rhianna, or Taylor Swift might be warranted.
I completely agree that Diana appears comfortable with her occasional appearances and a direct market lp every few years. But the question was if she had a manager while Cher is apparently enjoying renewed successes with her Christmas recordings.
Diana has many managers. But it is not as important to her as it is to Cher to stay current. I don't see Diana Ross dating a fetus the way Cher is
If she has a manager, she needs to fire him. Dolly and Cher, both 77 years-old, currently have number one albums and hit singles. Diana has not charted for decades. Dolly and Cher continually become known to younger generations which will ensure their relevance for many years to come. Diana is going down the road to eventual obscurity. As a fan, it does not feel good.
Lol. What does Cher's dating life have to do with Diana not having a hit in decades? Maybe she SHOULD date a fetus and warm up those cockles.Quote:

I bet any number of her kids get allowances for their "management" roles ....
Maybe Diana’s reluctance has also partly caused the demise of any more expanded editionsQuote:

I have been tired of the kids and grandkids’ parade and chatter for 30 years. Most parents are proud of their offspring, yet don’t bore others with the endless parades and chatter about them. Diana not only bores people with this, but seriously takes the focus off her glorious career to her professional detriment. Would anyone want to see Chasity/Chaz perform as Cher’s opening act?Quote:

I think you have a point but she doesn’t care; I truly believe that it is a career capper to her to have successful children and that is what she values most.Quote:

You're proud of them and their success. But your kids are now in their 30's and 50's. Cut the sequin cord.Quote:

They were all fortunate to be part of something very special; some made a fortune and some didn’t. Sounds like they had a few love affairs which was great.
The only part I’m not pleased with is when they treat each other like crap, whine about each other etc.
In that instance, I have total respect for Ross because she took a cue from Queen Elizabeth and she shuts her mouth and says nothing - just like the current King says nothing about the yappy spare and his yappy wife
I think she was too busy fighting in carparks or stealing fashion ideas from other female groups.:rolleyes:Quote:
