Diana & Whitney

[Jaap]

This picture popped up on my timeline. Does anybody know when and where this was taken?

If it's not AI-generated, judging by Nip's hair and wardrobe, this was on the set of her "Greatest Love of All" video ['86].

I would agree that it was taken on the set of Whitney's GREATEST LOVE OF ALL video, filmed at the Apollo. But that doesn't look like Diana to me.

I would agree with reese that it does not look like Diana Ross.

That aint Diana. This lady looks a little bit like her, but nah. Plus Diana is 5'5, and I'm guessing in 86 she probably didn't leave the house in anything less than a six inch heel. Whitney is said to be 5'8. Even if she too were in six inch heels, she would not tower over Diana this way. And, as Sans points out, this does look like the GLOA video shoot, which was filmed at the Apollo. Y'all know doggone well Diana wasn't going to the Apollo to watch some new, younger woman on a hit streak film a video in Harlem. She didn't even go to Harlem to get something to eat. Whenever she came to NYC she had her food delivered from Sylvia's to the Plaza Hotel.

I think this is nothing more than a misidentification.

Maybe it's a crew member or an extra?

Here's the video. Don't see her but maybe someone with sharper eyes might see her.

Yeah, I finally zoomed in: This is absolutely not Diana Ross. Nothing to see here.

Thanks all for clearing that up!
