Every superstar encounters issues directly before a show. Whether it be nerves,hang ups, health problems or musical issues it is most commonplace.
This has been doing the rounds for quite some time.
Very cool; he seems like a smart guy and we are all human
Nice story!
Perhaps someone told her that Mary Wilson was outside wanting a quick word regarding another book. ;)
Ha Ha. That gave me a chuckle on this beautiful and crisp Christmas morning.Quote:

Well I can kind of see why she wasn't too keen on that yellow dress....
Looks like she changed her mind at the very last possible second, rushing onto the stage at the end of the show performing without any shoes ! lol!

I think yellow is a colour that really suits. As Billy Dee Williams once told her “It brings out the best tones in your skin”. ;)Quote:

The yellow is a good color. Looks good on her. When Kevin is trying to recall if the issue was her dress , he might have meant she wasn't happy with it in general. It seems a bit ill fitting , bunching up in the center at times. Kind of monotone and plain. It's OK but not exactly gorgeous.Quote:

LOL. Strident is the way i would best describe her voice during this performance. I’ve most certainly heard her sing worse versions of the song though the curse of forgetting lyrics strikes again.Quote:

On the plus side she looks rather lovely, allowing of course for the slightly ill fitting frock.
Yes, and she does pull it off , without Kevin's reveal, we never would've known she had just caused such backstage chaos.Quote:

If my memory serves me jay leno made a joke in regards to RTL and ticked Diana off.
Finally kevin spoke to her with some kind words which put her in a better place.

I remember Tracee stating Jay Leno had made unkind remarks about Diana during RTL and during the difficult times that followed.Quote:

What does RTL have to do with this thread/story?
Um it was brought up in the last 5 posts? One of which you posted.Quote:
