Yes, I remember that and she even stated that Diana no longer did that anymore. Flash forward to the next groupings of Supremes during the disco era and all three members were exuberantly choreographed, no matter who was singing lead. I can imagine Jean got very frustrated with the comparisons year after year, even though some mentioned they thought she was a better singer.
