Diana Ross was once described by People as "Glitter Chic incarnate," a description that still holds up over 40 years later. The singer-actor is one of the most influential and successful artists of all time, with her impact seen in the likes of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Beyonce, and Questlove, to name a few examples. In the 1960s, she sold more records than everyone except the Beatles and became an Oscar-nominated actor in the 1970s. Oh, and did we mention Ross' impressive net worth?
