Not a single A-list celebrity paying tribute. :[[
He died last week. Great talent.
Much of her gay audience was less than thrilled by the “porn” cover. I guess it was meant to appeal to the hetero black male crowd.
Many celebrities actually call Backgrid, the photo company, and inform them where and when they will be at such-and-such place. It is called publicity. All stars need it.
I have long suspected...
If memory servers right, Bobby Sherman was inducted last year along with Debby Boone.
Here’s hoping Charo is inducted next year.
Cuchi-cuchi
I don’t see Tiny Tim in the list. He can’t be far behind.
so true… the world is so dumbed-down …
I can confirm Diana is hoping to do the sequel to the 1964 movie Strait-Jacket starring Joan Crawford.
One error in the performance - starting at 3:56 until 4:12 Diana is not on camera even though she is the real star and she is singing. I am not sure who made that decision, but Ruffin is not Ross in...
Luther is right, it is all about the tone and not the vocal gymnastics. You can keep your Patti Labelle and others. Give me Diana Ross, Celine Dion, Karen Carpenter, and others any day of the week.
A couple observations from a non-Mary fan:
I am sure it sounded better live. Here, it sounded dull.
Why do women of a certain age still wear sleeveless gowns that show fat and wobbly arms. It...
Clearly, I Will Survive has a special meaning to Diana. I often wonder why she recorded it, and why she continues to sing it at every show, despite most fans hating it.
Was it Diana’s message to...
Bringing joy to a few older men is not a motivation. If there was a penny to be made, it would be done.
She attempted to merch her 75th. It failed. Her 80th should be a private dignified affair.
Tony Orlando is retiring and will only do a couple more shows to say goodbye. Will Joyce join him?
The Shangri- Las had so many great hits. My favorite was You Can Never Go Home Again. I also loved the name of the group.
In my eyes, Mary, Flo,and Cindy were always second-best to Ross. However, Ross was at her peak with the girls behind her. Maybe Diana thought she had to work harder to be the center of attention,...
I watched the original show on tv and was mesmerized by these two groups together. However, all I really saw was Diana. The other 7 were mere window dressing in my eyes. So, NO, David did not...
Firstly, her 75th birthday celebration was a complete debacle. She sold tickets to it, sang wildly off-key, and exhausted everyone. The one who thought of that idea should be banished forever.
...
Maybe, hoping, YSL will design new costumes for her shows. The current ones are tired.
Her mouth looks old and fallen. Normal aging …. I don’t know whether to embrace it or pine for the younger Diana Ross look.
How Sweet it is To Be Loved By You.
Besides the obvious smash by the girls, what other Motown hit songs used the word stop in the lyrics?
I doubt she was asked. She is known ONLY for the Motown years. The rest is thankfully long forgotten.
Eaten Alive was an unmitigated failure. The title track is unlistenable. Much of the rest...
Karen Carpenter had such a pretty voice, and she made most songs sound pretty. Her Christmas album is gorgeous. Some voices are pretty and some are not pretty.
