    Here we go again....a thread about Flo and it all turns out nasty because of Diana / Diane and Berry....

    It's great news the story of Flo maybe will be made in to a movie, and yes...Diana / Diane and Berry played a role in her life. But....her life is so much more than that. Her music, her spirit. Let's just hope it will be about her strenght and her power.

    Not the sames Supremes b*tching that has gone on for years. Mostly by people that call themselves fans.

    The Supremes where the most important girl group of all times. They have inspired a generation. Made possible by the bussiness sense of Berry and the talents of all the individual Supremes. The still living Supremes appriciate this and celebrate their legacy.

    Let's join them and quit with the fighting and blaiming of incidents that has happened more than 40 years ago.

    Ok, so are you just completely illiterate or just plain dumb? I really do not care who your friends are or whom he runs to for support to try and back him up on this site. The facts speak for themselves and the truth will set you free. Now go crawl back into your cave and do your research before you come for me again. Also, try using spellcheck and learn the english language.

    I am willing to take off the boxing gloves as long as others can retain themselves from knocking one Supreme down to try and rise up another one.

    She's neither dumb nor illiterate. She's a harmless drunk who adores Mary Wilson.

    Phyl is loved by "Marv the fool" as she [[like him) says vile things about Diana and Lynda over at his MWOS Yahoo group.

    Don't talk to her like that. No one called you dumb and you've made glaring mistakes in some posts Capt'n.

    Thanks for posting this Marv - It seems that Faith and The possible movie is getting the buzz needed to generate interest - and find the money to do this project - let us hope it happens.

    Not silly good Captain, the daughters don't have to have harsh feelings towards Miss Ross; that is why Marv2 was born.

    Still nothing from credible news sources like The New York Times, just more talk from blogs and fan blogs. Still no producer, no director, no studio, no script, etc.

    Boy was this a bitter review about Flo Ballards life from someone who surely did not even met the lady. Wow!!!

    The film will start filming in January 2011, and the script has long been done - including much from Tony Turner's ALL THAT GLITTERED - My Life With The Supremes - showing young Flo on the road. So yes rights have been purchased from different writers thus putting together a hard hitting truthful script that will surely dispell many myths.

    Myth one - FLO GAINED WEIGH AND GOT FAT.

    In my research and looking at tons of pictures - which I am certain you all have seen - can someone please show me a picture of a FAT FLO BALLARD taken while see was in The Supremes - performing on stage. I cannot find a photo where Flo looks out of shape and fat while she was in The Supremes. Flo Ballard was not fat and overweight while in The Supremes.

    No one can finance a film in one week's time. Just because the rights have been purchased to a book or a few dollars have gone to some deceased person's heirs does not necessarily mean a movie is set to begin shooting. Like Ii said; no studio, no production money, no director, no script means NO MOVIE! Not YET!

    Everyone knows she was fired because she disrespected the company she worked for and its president, and drank too much. Berry said things like that to fvck with her, but it was never the reason why she was fired.

    This will be a popular email.

    Almost every artist that left Berry and Motown did not do as well as when they were at Motown and if they had an initial flurry of activity, it didn't last. They have all gone on to sing the praises of Berry Gordy and Motown; every last Vandella, Temptation, Supreme, Top, Miracle and Contour.

    Berry Gordy didn't tolerate drunks, lazy people, or druggies unless they were churning out the hits. He even eventually dumped his brother in law, Marvin Gaye.

    Florence Ballard has a story and it is interesting. The fact is she never sold 5000 records after her time with the Supremes, she was an alcoholic, she never held a job after the Supremes, she raised a bunch of now adult people that have never worked either and have no career.

    Praise it if you wish, but it is what it is.

    And I totally loved Florence's duet with Diana on Manhattan and her strong background to the Diana voice on You Keep Me Hanging On and Nothing But Heartaches and many others.

    I have been saying that for years and I have probably seen every available photograph of Florence with the Supremes right up to the month she was fired. She was not fat in any of them. Berry Gordy and Diana Ross lied about that . That was one of the things they used against her, to break her down, etc.

    That's true Skooldem, they F**KED over her in a real bad way. Florence was a young, beautiful, proud Black Woman with a generous heart and they beat her down, tried to drive her crazy and destroy her self-esteem.

    That is a LIE about Marvin Gaye. Berry Gordy did not dump him from Motown, he quit! Marvin was highly pissed that Motown went and released the "In Our Lifetime" album in 1981 unfinished and without his consent. He negotiated his release and went to CBS Records where he scored big time, immediately with "Sexual Healing" in 1982!

    Your attempt to trash Florence Ballard [[who is an American Music Legend) with your sly, worth-less comments is sad. The truth is, Florence accomplished more in her 32 years on this Earth than you could in three lifetimes! Adding her daughters in the mix of your attempted degradation of Florences' name is pitiful. From all accounts, they are decent young women and mothers.

    Jobeterob, that is ANOTHER LIE you are telling here. Florence never had the opportunity to raise and nurture her children into adulthood...............she died.

    Raynoma Gordy-Singleton said that Berry was a small time pimp at one time down on John R. in Detroit. That part you wrote about " They have all gone on to sing the praises of Berry Gordy and Motown; every last Vandella, Temptation, Supreme, Top, Miracle and Contour" is not true at all, Eddie Kendricks said that he really didn't know Berry Gordy well and that Gordy did not care much for him. David has said things that are unmentionable here. Many more have had their say in court when they sued him............

    When was the last time you spoke to any of the Contours?
