Here is a picture of Cindy Birdsong, from Scherrie Paynes Facebook page, just in the last hour or so. Not sure how old the picture is.

Great pic! Thanks for sharing. This looks like this might be from Scherrie's recent play in Los Angeles. Since when is Cindy shorter than Scherrie? Cindy was always one of the tallest Supremes. Time is running out ladies. PLEASE get together for a photo shoot before it's too late! That's all we ask.

Lots more pictures.
i think Cindy is sitting on the back of a chair leaning forward. btw, that is Joyce Vincent on the left.
Id assume Cindy needs/values her privacy.
In any event, Cindy looks like a million bucks!
Been smiling for days about the Diana and Mary reunion! A reunion for the history books! Hopefully the bickering and sneering fans will finally be able to take a hint.
Great video on the red carpet at BET.com
There is an annoying video on the right side of the screen that you will have to pause so that it doesn't play at the same time.

There was another Supremes reunion we all missed; watch this video til the end.
And doesn't Gladys look great these days; she looks better now that 15 years ago.
I have read reports that Diana was so touched during the performance that she could be seen wiping her eyes and hugging Berry. In the interviews I have seen, she was very excited to get to see it. When she saw it she said she loved it. Remember all that talk that she wouldn't like it and that she wouldn't go see it?
Here's a bunch of pics from Curtain call Sunday night

Didn't anyone think to invite Cindy or any of the Jackson clan to represent Michael? I heard Suzanne DePasse was in attendance, but there doesn't seem to be any pics of her, either. Maxine Powell would have also been a lovely addition. She was also very instrumental in the development process.

I saw a picture of Suzanne.
Incredible number of pictures in the article listed by Smark above. Basically shows each of the Motown stars brought on stage after the show.
The Jackson family are in court in court in LA trying to squeeze some money out of AEG and Suzane De Passe was there. Mrs Powell is almost 90 years old and may not be fit to travel or stay up late. She look good last time I saw a video of her a few weeks ago but that dont mean she's fit to travel to New York and stay up till midnight. I bet you Cindy was invited but she may not be fit to travel either. you seem real intent to turn this thread sour. Why?

Roberta, you can't be serious? It's pretty clear now that YOU'RE the troublemaker on this site. By the way, this is MY thread! In another area, the Sunday show starts at 3 pm, so my guess is Mrs. Powell wouldn't be retired for the night. She also would have enjoyed the show immensely as would Cindy and any of the Jacksons.

I wonder if Jean Terrell or Lynda Lawrence or Sherrie Payne or Barbara Martin were at the opening? Anyone know.

Revvy -
Your thread on a public site? Guess we missed the copyright symbol. And for the record, Miss Roberta is no trouble maker. Did you miss the memo where Ralph asked that we play nice while he's away?

What I am emphasizing is that I started this thread, so why would I want to turn it sour as I have been charged? Let's get back to the subject of this thread. Geez!
I dont know but someone whom is real close to Cindy posted on facebook that Cindy wasnt well enough to travel to New York. I offer up this prayer for my sister in Christ Miss Cindy Birdsong.
Merciful Lord and Father in Heaven, continue to visit and heal Sister Cindy Birdsong in her time of need and affliction. As you healed the pain between Mary Wilson and Diane Ross on Sunday night I humbly ask that you visit our sister in Christ Miss Cindy Birdsong and deliver her from sickness and pain. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, your son who died on the cross for our sins.
Amen.
Your faithful servant,
Roberta
I had a feeling she wasn't well enough to travel. May God bless her. The next time Mary is in Los Angeles, there should really be a photo shoot of the 3 of them to simply close the book on the legacy. When one of them passes, it will be a great keepsake for many.
Also last summer, it was reported that Mrs. Powell had a stroke and that was why she was unable to attend Mary’s show in Detroit. I’ve read she’s doing better, but she’s 96 years old and it’s too much to ask a 96 year old woman in delicate health to travel to NYC to attend a Broadway show just so morbid Revvy can get a picture. Also, the show didn’t start at 3PM this past Sunday. It started at 6PM. A show is not going to stage its official opening as a matinee.
[QUOTE=carlo;160921]Been smiling for days about the Diana and Mary reunion!
So have I, Carlo.
You guys had my my day with all those FABULOUS photos from the opening night of the Motown Musical, great see many of the old Motown stars looking fabulous, happy and healthy but the ones that really made my day was the ones of Diana and Mary together [[DEFINITELY THE REUNION OF THE NIGHT), never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would ever see those two so close together again. of course some fans would see faults/ flaws in this reunion but the fact that they were actually happy to stand together to have photos taken together is enough for me, cause I tell you guys now, no way did I think I would ever see Diana and Mary on stage together again.
Before this opening I was even doubting that Diana would attend at all, I knew that Mary would be there of course but I really thought that even if Diana attended, no way would she and Mary would be seen together and I am so glad just how wrong I was, I suppose I have read too much into the bickering among Supremes fans over the years [[especially fans of Mary and Diana).
As a long time fan of Diana and [[I am a huge fan of the original Supremes as well) seeing those close photos of Diana and Mary together 40 years later, looking happy, beautiful and healthy really made my day [[just a shame that Flo is no longer here and Cindy is not in such a good health), seeing all 4 together would have been a dream come true for me but I am sure Flo is looking down with a smile upon her girls [[Diana & Mary).
Thanks so much once again guys for posting all those FAB photos, hopefully this is the start of the healing process between the two original Supremes and about time too

Here is a video of the Diana, Mary, Berry reunion.
That's incredible! Thanks for that video. They all seem to be OK with each other now and that is such a blessing.
I'm just patting my foot, with my arms folded cross my chest, whistling a tune and waiting to see how long all this peace and love will last.
What? No Lionel Richie? LOL!!!
Yea! There's the Marv we know and love...
And while I am truly elated at seeing all of this love between diana, mary and berry, I truly hope that each one of the subjects will recognize how Cindy was a huge part of the Supremes in continuing their legacy, and hope they will check on the girl who was the most gracious of all the Supremes. Cindy we love youl in the name of love.
