There are certain artists whose names immediately fall in the "legend" category and Diana Ross is one of them. Though no proof is needed, she is even a Kennedy Center Honoree, Grammy Award Winner, Tony Award Winner, and Oscar and Golden Globe Nominee. Her career spans over 50 years and dates back to the Motown era, as one of the most famous acts during that time. I was watching a Motown special a couple of weeks ago and Motown founder, Berry Gordy commented that "Diana Ross and The Supremes" were the "number one act" for Motown during its success period. Diana Ross is back in 2020 and dazzling more than ever before at seventy-five years old lighting up the Kennedy Center Stage with grace and incredible vocals.
Strike up the "orchestra" because Ross is coupled with the amazing National Symphony Orchestra on the Kennedy Center's Concert Hall Stage. "I'm Coming Out!" The first lyrics heard from off-stage and no sooner does the legend herself appear onstage in a bright, big, and bold persimmon dress. The crowd goes wild as they are in the presence of "the" Diana Ross herself. Did I mention that the entirety of the Concert Hall was completely packed to its brim?
