    To see Missy walking with Mary. Janet walking and talking with Mariah. Diana and Tina sitting and chatting. The camaraderie exemplified in this video is astounding. I wish the media would highlight this kind of love amongst entertainers more often, especially since we live in a world where so many of us like to pit entertainers (especially female entertainers) against each other.

      The media and government doesn't want to promote this kind of love. They want people at each other's throats. That's why you've never seen this on tv, and extremely violent motion pictures and games sell in the millions
      Diana and Tina share similar experiences. Both were financially exploited, heavily controlled and managed for a major chunk of their lives.

    Diahann Carroll and Nancy Wilson talking, though! Those women inspire me so much as a musician and performer. A lot of people don't realize how much Diahann has contributed to the world of music, what with performing on Broadway and recording albums BEFORE she became an acclaimed actress on tv/film. And Tina Turner's energy is on another level. Her performances were nothing short of magical.

      Destination Food Australia have they had beef? Where you been yes they've had beef. They were pitted against each other through it their careers. Plus Tyra had Naomi on her talk show to track about it and since that time they've buried the hatchet.

      Im not a Mariah fan but here is a bit of truth. TV nor film does any justice for Miriah's beauty, She is an absolute beauty in person, look like she was just freshly created by the hand of God. I saw her in person once at the Mall Of America and I remember saying to myself wow she is the most beautiful women I've ever seen!! even more beautiful in person. But not only is she beautiful, she's a kind hearted person. When she entered the MOA all of the kids were yellg and trying to touch her and her BG was preventing then, somewhat roughly and she just so happen to notice it, and she said, somewhat loudly at them, OH NO, its ok, very firmly and sweetly, she shook their hands, hugged them and sign autographs for them, and believe it or not the kids behaved respectfully. I've had great respect for her ever since. Well thats my story. Lol.

    This was held in 2012. More than ten years ago. And quite a few of them have passed already: Tina Turner, Diahann Caroll, Ruby Dee, Cicely Tyson, Maya Angelou, and Della Reese... Only Oprah can put up this gathering of legends... 😊

    I come back to watch this every so often. This was just so amazing and beautiful to me. I named my daughter after Maya Angelou (she's about to be 9) because her poetry and wisdom had a profound effect on my life when I was a young girl. ✨✨💜

    I remember watching this on TV. This was a great way for some of the women to catch up on old times and/or meet with someone for the first time. I know the youngins were grateful for the opportunity to honor the women that paved the way for them.

    Women together, sharing honestly with honour, respect, humility and love is one of life's most potent nectars. If you haven't experienced it yet, pray that God will lead you into a context where you can safely give and receive this precious gift. Thank you Oprah for your generosity in creating such a priceless event. x x x

    This is so Amazing! I hope these new generation singers learn from these legends. Glad that we still have singers who can be a great diva with great voices. We still have Ariana, Cynthia Erivo, Nicole scherzinger, Tori Kelly Jojo, kelly, beyonce. These are singers who’s gifted with great voices!
