I have not said anything negative about Miss Wilson OR any other Motown artist on these boards and do not condone such remarks as I find them counterproductive and unnecessary.
I have had the good fortune of meeting ALL of the living Supremes with the exception of Jean Terrell and Scherrie Payne. I have also met and am also friends with several family members of various ladies from the group. That being said, in all of my candid conversations or interviews, NONE of them or their children said a negative word about any other group member or fellow Motown artist so I can't wrap my brain around the vitriol I see on the internet by so called "fans". My personal opinion: if you love The Supremes so much, you don't "hate" any of the members, especially Diana Ross who, as we all know, was the group's most successful member AND performed on every one of the group's #1 hits.
As I've said elsewhere on these boards, we are talking about women in their 70s. If you have to stoop to cheap jabs, insults and vulgar comments about 70 year old women you've most likely never met [[and never will), you really should reconsider your fandom.
