Came across this great photo of Flo on Facebook. It was taken in February 1967. She looks like a star in this picture.

Great Picture, but why is everything blurry except for her face? Is there some photoshop going on?
I really don't like this photo at all. It has definitely been photoshopped and scarcely even looks like Flo.
At first I thought that the date has to be wrong because I've never seen Flo wear that style so late in the game. Plus her face is much more slimmer here than it was in 1967. But then I noticed the dress she was wearing so I figure I was wrong. But now that everyone is pointing out the appearance of having been photoshopped, I'm inclined to agree. It looks like someone took Flo's face from a 1965 photo and placed it on a 1967 photo based on the hairstyle and slim of face. I could be wrong again, but I'm not sure this is an original photo.
However, she does look very beautiful, as usual.
RanRan there are more pictures from that night and she has that same hairstyle. I've also seen pictures from this time period of the group waiting in an airport and Flo had that hairstyle and at first I thought the same thing [[it must be a 1965 photo incorrectly dated as 1967).
Here's a shot from the same poster during that same show.
Flo would have been a great Broadway Star Performer.She had superb comedic timing and her vocal range was impressive.
with training, i think from a vocal perspective, Flo might have found a niche in broadway but she had no where near the discipline for it. It's unfortunate that all of the events lead to this. on the one hand, motown didn't really give her the studio time or training to excel like they did Diana. but Flo also had a whole host of her own personal demons which would have been a barrier to such work.
This makes me cry. I love Flo. I light a candle every week at mass for her.
I never could exactly put my finger on why Flo always stood out to me and why I felt like I knew her. Years later I think it was just because she was a down to earth person. Her and Diana were and always will be my favorite Supremes.
