God she is so beautiful and regal. Simply Amazing this woman is. I can definitely understand why she is the GREATEST female artist of our time. She carries herself with such poise and grace. Always a Lady...and I absolutely Love her big hair always :)
Do I need to say anything about why Diana Ross is and always will be my most favorite person in the world. I truly love her she has inspired me since I was a 7 year old boy I always use her life as an example for my own. I believe that is why God allowed me to see that central park concert at age 7 she would be my guide in life forever after that age. Love this interview and love her. God bless her.
wise woman! I really would love to see Diana do more with encouraging people...maybe like a radio show or talk show or reality show, book, MORE MOVIES! I know music is her first love and I would OF COURSE love to continue to see that part of her (she's one of my favorite artists)...but I definitely would like to hear more of her wisdom. She's gone through a lot...I love to hear her speak of her experiences.
Will die a Diana Ross fan. Her influence and talent broadened the spectrum of what black entertainers could do around the world. To me she is the penultimate of performers. Her class and humor shine in this interview. Love you Diana -
@@lucyfer4420 SURE THEY CAN! IT JUST DEPENDS ON WHO YOU LIKE AND WHO YOU PREFER. EVERYONE HAS THEIR FAVORITE AND NO ONE CAN CHANGE THEIR OPINION ! NO ONE !🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😄😄😄😄😄😄😅😅😁😂🤣🤣🤣
It's so sad to hear her admit that she was still grieving the loss of their relationship only for him to die a week later. All of this happening just as she was getting her life back together. She is indeed a strong woman.
shaneele, A question that has been around as long as her mane has. I think that a decent amount of it is hers. The length always changes though, sometimes the length that is shown in this video, other times it is down to her bottom (if you can, find Oprah's Legend Ball and watch it, Diana has crazy hair on that one!). Either way, Diana has a hairstyle that has defined her...which is stunning!
Glam Jackson she looked so sad because she was actually contenplating giving up singing that's why she was so sad looking , look at her she was actually contenplating quiting the entertainment business in real time right then right there . I'm so glad whatever it was that was driving her to go in that direction , she was able to overcome and perservere and continue to perform which she does so beautifully and naturally like no other .
This interview said it all why MJ so loved her.ijust cudn't understand why MJ didn't marry her after her divorce cuz even Rhonda said n BW interview wd be if their mom gets married again.🤔
Diana Ross, the reason that your career did fall away, when you choose your children, your family over your career, was because you a so talented. Gosh! You are strong and resilient. You are so right, you had your children attention, you gave them your attention, during their most formidable years. The years of their development, their personalities development.
It called lighting. I have been up close, very close to Diana Ross. Close enough to hug her. Her skin is not bleach. She has a pecan brown complexion. Her makeup and the lighting, shows her photos, television, stage, and videos, she appears lighter. However, in person, not so much.
Funny how she said back then that this was her last tour only for her to currently say during every show that she'll never retire and it's her favorite thing to do. That's how life changes. LOL. I wonder if she ever watches her old interviews.
He is terrible, he asks her are your children so and so age; if he did some research he would be bearable. . That quote from psychologists -he made no reference; really makes him look stupid -the whole thing is cring-making. . Only she saves it. cheers.
WHY? WHY couldn't you just LET this be a wonderful interview without showin' YOUR 'ugly'? C'MON! "STOP!" BOTH women are MAGIC and will always BE! WherEVER they are!
@dddddadadad1796 It did happen! I quote: Barbara Waters on the View, ask Diana Ross, "Is that your real hair?" Before Diana could answer, Star Jones interjected, "She it is, she paid for it!" Then Diana Ross told her that she used extensions. She even took one out to show how she used them! I went back and viewed the video. That portion has been edited out.
I'm in love. Btw she refers to herself as "Diana" nor "Diane" which shows that when Mary and her folk refer to her as "Diane" it's an insult...and is meant to be.
Yep. I don't like that Mary does that because even if Ms. Ross used the name Diane as a kid, Mary should respect the fact that she goes by Diana now. My sister uses a variation of her name as an adult and all her friends and family respect this change. Mary should show the same respect since she claims they will always be "sisters".
That nasty bitch rode Ross'coattails for the entire Supreme history. Now Mary tries to stay popular by making catty remarks about Ross. I love Diana Ross. Unbelievable, talented , beautiful creature. And class personified!
@@hollygab8188 I read Diana Ross's book last night. Mary has always said that Diana and Berry conspired for Diana to be the star in the group...that Florence had the better voice. I have listened to Florence voice. Her voice sounds raspy and soulful but I would prefer Diana's voice. After reading her book, I understand Diana Ross's point of view. Her voice was better suited for the songs they sang and Berry picked her. Diana put it this way...It was like a parent picking a favorite child. I don't think it was Diana's fault that she got pushed to the forefront! Florence may have had the better voice but her voice wasn't suited for the songs they sang and she may not have had star quality like Diana has. Sorry for the long message!
@@tiffaniegreen1816 read the part in Mary's book where they had the meeting about firing flo. They went around the room and gave for and against arguements. Finally it got to Mary. When asked where she stood , Mary replied it was time for Flo to go. When Diana left the group 3 years later , why didn't Flo come back as lead? If the only thing preventing Flo from spreading her wings was Diana Ross, why didn't she come back as the lead? Flo couldn't sing , listen to her solo album!!! She sucked!
@@hollygab8188 Well she couldn't come back as lead because they fired her. Right after she left the group she sued Motown. I can't remember what she sued Motown for...if it was for royalties or contract dispute. Berry Gordy wouldn't want her back anyway and I don't blame him (even though he was wrong for how handled picking Diana like I mentioned above) ! She caused all kinds of problems with alcoholism. Which could all stem from pain of being raped as a teenager. She hired her husband as her manager! Then signed onto another record label. She did a album and the album didn't do so well. Plus, I heard the Supremes had hits after Diana Ross left. The Supremes had songs before "Where Did Our Love Go?" and there known as the No-hit Supremes! So Flo singing backup obviously didn't work! I wasn't until that song that they became a hit group! I listened to "Butter Popcorn" and really prefer Diana's voice to Flo's!
Awesome interview. Its so good to hear Diana Ross talk real. Family, health, and career.
This is one of the best interviews ever. What excellent questions and answers! Brilliant!
One of the most open, honest and candid interviews I've seen of Miss Diana Ross!
She soo beautiful, amazing,wonderful,full of very good energy!!! Just adore her and her songs! Fantastic Lady!
God she is so beautiful and regal. Simply Amazing this woman is. I can definitely understand why she is the GREATEST female artist of our time. She carries herself with such poise and grace. Always a Lady...and I absolutely Love her big hair always :)
and on June 25, 2017, 13 years after this, I was coming home from her concert in Miami. Love her so much
💖💖💖💖
What a woman! Full of positive energy!
She is so amazing and intelligent. I love watching her interviews! ❤️

Such CLASS !!!!!
brilliant interview, thankfully she keeps on touring
And she’s still going now! 2024. Amazing
Epic interview. You could tell she felt comfortable with the interviewer as she allowed a lot of room for his questions❤.
I love how he used her song titles in his questions and comments. This is really a talented man. He was well prepared.
She is an amzing women, So Wise! :)
she looks amazing!
wise woman! I really would love to see Diana do more with encouraging people...maybe like a radio show or talk show or reality show, book, MORE MOVIES!

She's right about Never Say Never because she's about to start at European tour next year.
Diana ross is the one and only and still going at 73
Still going at 80!
Will die a Diana Ross fan. Her influence and talent broadened the spectrum of what black entertainers could do around the world. To me she is the penultimate of performers. Her class and humor shine in this interview. Love you Diana -
+Kurt Robinson just curious......who would be the ULTIMATE performer, then?
I can't imagine anyone better than Tina Turner!!!!
I respect Tina very much. When it comes to glamour and stage presence, though....no one beats Miss Ross.
@@lucyfer4420 SURE THEY CAN! IT JUST DEPENDS ON WHO YOU LIKE AND WHO YOU PREFER. EVERYONE HAS THEIR FAVORITE AND NO ONE CAN CHANGE THEIR OPINION ! NO ONE !🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😄😄😄😄😄😄😅😅😁😂🤣🤣🤣
Well said
Wow, i never seen this before, Ms. Ross gives very good interviews, she super smart and good looking, also i like her confindence in herself.
Really charming woman..
I love her for all reasons💖💖💖...i love her forever💖
And that's why the lady is a CHAMP!
One of the most remarkable women in modern American history.
Sin dudas nuestra Diva forever!! Una maravilla de respuestas, por parte de Diana!!! Una artista,una madre por siempre.
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💜💜💜💜LEGEND LEGEND !!!!! ICON !!
Dayumn, in Europe she gave the real interviews. Because Europe is more real and sane than the USA will ever be
usa interviews are all about the host getting all the attention and insulting people.
I’d like to see the complete interview. I like her honesty
Yes, it is the Ahoy stadium/arena she was referring to. This venue is in The Netherlands (but you were close ;-)
i agree with both comments about her hair length and the interviews comparions
It's so sad to hear her admit that she was still grieving the loss of their relationship only for him to die a week later. All of this happening just as she was getting her life back together. She is indeed a strong woman.
I am a huge Fan !!!!

YES, SHE HAS A VERY TALENTED HAIR 😉😁STYLIST!!!!!
Omg why she looks so sad at the end ? I almost cried !
Glam Jackson she looked so sad because she was actually contenplating giving up singing that's why she was so sad looking , look at her she was actually contenplating quiting the entertainment business in real time right then right there . I'm so glad whatever it was that was driving her to go in that direction , she was able to overcome and perservere and continue to perform which she does so beautifully and naturally like no other .
She had a LOT on her shoulders at this time.. this is why you saw the sadness in her eyes then
This interview said it all why MJ so loved her.ijust cudn't understand why MJ didn't marry her after her divorce cuz even Rhonda said n BW interview wd be if their mom gets married again.🤔
Diana Ross wears a excellent brilliant "Weaved-Weave" head of hair !!!.
YES SHE DOES !! I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HER BEAUTICIAN !! LOL !!😉😉😁😂🤣😊😘😙😆😆
Tradução para português dessa entrevista dela por favor desde já obrigada.

Enough is Enough...
Dear FAB.,
Mmm, thanks for your commet.
.
By the way, will you, dear FAB., be going to Michael Jackson's concert in London UK, ?
cheers.
@BlogShag
She worked hard to pay for that hair! LOL
@ Make Mine Vogue , Oh please, considering her income, that hair cost next to nothing.
Is this necessary?
In reference to her comments about beauty, I wonder what her children said to her, if anything, about the enormous amount of skin bleaching she did.
It called lighting. I have been up close, very close to Diana Ross. Close enough to hug her. Her skin is not bleach. She has a pecan brown complexion. Her makeup and the lighting, shows her photos, television, stage, and videos, she appears lighter. However, in person, not so much.
Interesting how he pushes her to open up through her... hair. Creepy.
Funny how she said back then that this was her last tour only for her to currently say during every show that she'll never retire and it's her favorite thing to do. That's how life changes. LOL. I wonder if she ever watches her old interviews.
She did NOT say that this would’ve been the last.
She said MIGHT.
@@dddddadadad1796 Last or might - she didn't stop at all which is the point.
He is terrible, he asks her are your children so and so age; if he did some research he would be bearable.
.
That quote from psychologists -he made no reference; really makes him look stupid -the whole thing is cring-making.
.
Only she saves it.
cheers.
WHY? WHY couldn't you just LET this be a wonderful interview without showin' YOUR 'ugly'?
C'MON! "STOP!" BOTH women are MAGIC and will always BE! WherEVER they are!
@tyasiajohnson12 she said she has extions in an 2000 interview with barbara. its on yoututbe
Yes ! True .
DOES IT MATTER???
You are correct. She even pulled one piece out, and showed Barbara and her the View how she use them.
@@strausd02this NEVER happened. Where do you people get this information from?
Diana Ross never did this
