Motown 25 question

Diana quote “The girls will be happy with a medley”. Discussion over. Probably not the best way to go about creating harmonious relations.
Is it any wonder the RTL tour went pear shaped.

Diana could have handled things better for sure, but she had invested money in the RTL project unlike Mary so she potentially had more to lose, and of course ultimately did lose more. This was around the time Diana was going through a very tough time personally. I will not go into detail here, but it contributed to the shambles that became RTL. It was one of my final gigs with Diana. I had had enough and wanted out, but i did not want to leave whilst she was in such a bad place. However, i did leave and i look back on it and wish i had handled things differently. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
All this does not excuse Mary's behaviour which did her no credit whatsoever. She knew Diana was sick but she had an agenda and was determined to draw blood. Both ladies behaviour left much to be desired. That is all i am willing to say on the subject. It's time to move on.....

Diana Ross invested no money into Motown 25. She had repeatedly refused the request to appear and only relented at the very last minute. Even though Michael Jackson was now a bigger star she demanded to make an entrance and to close the show.

I am referring to RTL not Motown 25, but i do concede that i may not have made myself crystal clear in my previous post. Apologies for any misunderstanding.

and regardless of if Mary was supposed to wear silver/grey/white/black, her entrance during Someday was stunning!
