    LOL!!! I stand by my statement that the Supremes or any other American Soul stars of the 60's could "mop" the stage with the Beatles or any of the Beatle type bands with their LIVE performance.Did you ever see the Stones[[& I actually liked them) try to follow James Brown?LOL

    Yes I have seen the Stones live. They are fantastic. I'm too young to have seen the Beatles live. Your "statement" is an opinion, so I guess you need to wash out your mop, darling.

    FYI - Maria Callas mops the floor with Gladys Knight.

    Oh yes it was mentioned several times back in 2000 that Berry Gordy got involved in the negotiations on behalf of Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong. He was very angry over the way they were being treated. Mary confirmed Mr. Gordy's involvement again just last month in this New York Times interview:

    Yeah, well read here:

    practise what you preach,Gene!

    Isn't Gene Simmons a Republican? I am pretty sure I saw him on television earlier this year dogging Pres. Obama.

    Read the next paragraph down where Mary says she has never been interviewed by Peter Benjaminson for the Flo Ballard story and Benjaminson says he interviewed Mary twice.

    Now how about a comment, line, paragraph, sentence or a note from Mr. Gordy that is actually coming from Mr. Gordy.

    Maria Callas who? Gladys Knight is the bomb! Always has been.....!

    I agree with Motony, the Motown Acts vocally and visually murder those other acts on stage. It is no contest!

    I totally agree and yes I saw that [[the Stones following James Brown & the Fabulous Flames) in the T.A.M.I. Show. It was no contest. James Brown left the stage smoking hot!

    Gene Simmons blasted Obama for his policies on Israel. That doesn't make him a Republican.

    Yes I am !!! I am paying you no attention because Mr. Gordy lips are sealed on the matter. Diana has said that Mr. Gordy said to do whatwever you feel would be fun to do. So, its Diana word against Mary's word. So, you are incorrect, I am paying you.....! I am paying you no attention. Caesar is HOME !!!!

    She didn't say that, you must be seeing things. What she said was this:

    "I’m thrilled there’ll be a movie, but they haven’t really interviewed me,"


    The guy interviewing her didn't even ask her if she was ever interviewed by Peter Benjaminson. She is referring to the producers and screenwriters for the film not realizing Mr. Benjaminson' involvement in the film. That is exactly what she meant!

    Since you seem to know absolutely everything about Mary Wilson marv2, can you please tell us when Mary's new CD will be released in the US and can you tell us if "Life's Been Good To Me" the single made the UK charts and how many copies it sold?

    Thanks in advance.

    Perhaps you are reading and seeing more into than what is there. The question proposed to her was;
    "Have you read Peter Benjaminson’s biography of Florence? It was supposed to be made into a movie with Faith Evans, but she dropped out, and now Terry Dexter’s got the part. So obviously when mentioned to Peter Benjaminson that was his response that he interviewed her twice.

    You have to love it. Mary Wilson doesn't even know who Peter Benjaminson is and from the claptrap way the attempt to film something based on his interview has gone, kudos to her for avoiding it.

    This kind of garbage is another example of why the Supremes story is holding less and less interest and why they are unable to attract anything like a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Grammys or anyone else ~ it is a spectacle and it is not an attractive one.

    There are so many people out there trying to "hawk" a connection to Diana Ross and turn it into money.

    Yeah but you are still not getting it. Her reading the book "Lost Supreme" by Peter Benjaminson has nothing to do with her response that "they", have not really interviewed me for the film; meaning that the producers and screenwriters have not contacted her yet. She was not aware that the reporter was inferring that Mr. Benjaminson is also directly connected to te production of the film.

    No disrespect but Mary has been saying that for nine years. Given your close connection to Mary I was wonder if you could ask her if the new CD will be out this year?

    Oh yes! Mary knows who Peter Benjaminson is, it's just that the reporter never directly asked her if she knew Peter or has been interviewed by him.

    It was a good show and I am truly glad I got the chance to see it because it will probably be the last time I will ever see Three Supremes on a stage again. I have seen the girls many times over the years but this was the first time I heard "LoveLights" perform through its entirety.

    Shame people have to say such nasty things about Diana all the time. They need to get lives.

    Really great, fun clip. Wish I could have seen this show. The comments from a certain member are disgraceful.

    That's not true Rob. The Southern California Motion Picture Council proudly presented Mary Wilson the Golden Halo, Lifetime Achievement Award, October 18th, 2010.

    I bet founder Randal Malone is a huge Supremes/Mary Wilson fan. Anyone know if this awards show is televised?

    That's rather cruel and tasteless IMO. I'm sure he's a very fine gentleman who obviously has exquisite taste hence his honoring of Miss Mary Wilson with the Southern California Motion Picture Council Golden Halo Lifetime Achievement Award.

    I guess I don't understand Mary Wilson's achievements in Motion Pictures rather than music or television
