THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE RECORDING ARTIST OF ALL TIME!!! And can’t nobody top that cause she did it first and broke barriers all over the world. I love it!!
She was the first versatile pop music diva, which allowed her to connect with a wider age range, because when she got started, some singers wouldnt "touch" rock and roll. Diana Ross and the Supremes were not afraid to sing stuff that didn't fall within expectations of what black singers should be performing. Diana sang many styles of music convincingly, and because of that, it made her stand out from the crowd. She actually has hits in more genres of music than any other diva.....jazz, country, ballads, soul, dixie, disco and classical believe it or not. She was welcomed to sing in Italy with opera greats Placido Domingo amd that other dude. What other black soul divas were invited to do that? And that my friends is why she is Diana Ross and like no other..Even Tina Turner has indicated in the press she was jealous of Diana Ross' voice at the height of her career
If you've ever worked in show business like I have, having others poke, touch, and prod your face with paint brushes and paint sticks is so freakin' annoying.
I just loooooooooooooooooove looooooooooooove Diana!!! She's natural, amazing and I so admire how a diva like herself can be so down to earth. A true role model for sure. Thank you for this clip so much
You're right. She actually looks younger with shorter and straightened hair instead ofthe blob mess she likes that engulfs her head. She wore this style when being interviews that trapezoid head shaped host.Looked good there too
I've seen her only 13 times...I recall seeing her at the glorious Art Deco theatre in beautiful Oakland, the Paramount Theatre.. She was fab fab fab and sweet.. The audience was classy..as they witnessed her glorious blessed presence. As she sang her Bille Holiday classics, people called out and very respectfully..."Icon!! ...Diva!..." I was so proud. My crazy self didn't need to instruct any of them about how honored they should feel it behave when swathed by her elegance and talent.
She's in a leather dress and looks great. She had kids at this point! Great figure for a woman who had children! I love the meeting with all of her songs used.
"You can't just work on your career and now have a balance in your life." TRUTH and she did it all with grace and class. What a beautiful woman and mother.
Diana Ross looks great, and glowing skin. She is a legendary Diva.! Great voice and longevity career. She keeps winning, except in love department...oh well. TFS😚☺
Yes you would. She does have that effect on people, even famous and rich people I saw her when she was taping the video with Ru Paul "I Will Survive" It was filmed in West Hollywood , Ca.on an impromptu basis in 1995. A crowd naturally gathered, and they did their thing. When she passed by me on the float all I could do is smile and stare. I was 3 feet from her. Yeah, you bet I was star struck. She smiled back. with her famous wide grin.
That bit with the producers using all her hits was amazing. Isn't Ross like the biggest (or in the top 4 or 5) female selling artists like ever? I can't think of anyone with more hits.
Someone made a comment about how skinny and mal-nutritioned Ms. Ross looked in her younger days but, It was her Voice,her talent,and the fact that she was so skinny back then,that made her different from all of the other female singers.Like any flower,it has to blossom. Having beauty inside,will only show more on the outside as a person grows,learns,and matures.
It started in 1997 and they've had quite a number of host replacements since then. I personally think the show was at it's best with Meredith, Star, and Lisa.
The way she entered the room, is the way i enter my job everyday.....i spin around, whip off my wrap....and grant everyone with a million dollar smile and say.....WHAZ UP BITCHESSSSSSS
It is rather unfortunate, as we enter 2018, that NOT much has changed in film and television production rooms in regard to race. We are still singing and dancing wile they have all of the key positions and acquire all of the real wealth and security. #DiversifyYourStadd
Good question. I've been a fan of Diana since the very beginning. To date, I don't know of an interview where Diana really gets into the film LSTB, which was her favorite scene, which was the most difficult. I have only read a few comments of Diana's where she mentions the Oscar. In one of her concert programs Diana wrote "the Oscar, sure it would have been nice. But I think the film speaks for itself." GOOOO MISS ROSS.
Barbara was always trying to throw subtle shade at Miss Ross. It was no point of her bringing up Diana had redecorated her house like 20 yrs ago for their first interview. She really couldn't stand that Diana was a successful black woman who had standards just like her
Star jones, Oprah and others from my era were huge fans of diana. Why? No women who looked like her, talked like her and was intelligent and well spoken were on tv (truly). Women who looked like her were maids, domestic and diva free. Diana created diva. I was such a fan I could not save $100 to see her perform in the 1970's. I heard she changed wigs,clothes 10 or more times. No female entertainers did this except cher who wss sylvias favorite performer.
Yeah, I think they only said that because of her printing in Guiness Book of World Records in 1993. Madonna has sold way more records than her. But remember, Madonna became an international star without even touring because of MTV. Madonna's concert tours also gross much more than Diana's and she plays larger venues
i wouldn't say she looks out of place...she just naturally stands out. Not many people have a presence like that where you just notice them in a crowd or whatever.

I think Diana looks so beautiful here. Love the hair, makeup. It is just so classic and beautiful.
Yes she looks more beutiful here with simple make up shes very beutiful and i like the color of her hair ,she looks younger .
@@susanbouillon8641 , choice of wardrobe was bad
...Diana Ross is so free spirited, she is so precious.
Diana can still pack the house after all these years..A true superstar!
THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE RECORDING ARTIST OF ALL TIME!!! And can’t nobody top that cause she did it first and broke barriers all over the world. I love it!!
Michael Jackson's one true love
She was the first versatile pop music diva, which allowed her to connect with a wider age range, because when she got started, some singers wouldnt "touch" rock and roll.

And that my friends is why she is Diana Ross and like no other..Even Tina Turner has indicated in the press she was jealous of Diana Ross' voice at the height of her career
She's also the only artist that has a number one record by solo, duet (with Lionel Richie) and group (The Supremes)
Diana does her own makeup and has mostly done it for herself since the 1970s...she looks beautiful.
If you've ever worked in show business like I have, having others poke, touch, and prod your face with paint brushes and paint sticks is so freakin' annoying.
Diana Ross is such a role model for what class, professionalism and integrity looks like when one is in the public eye.
Wow she looks stunning in both straight and curly hair
Diana Ross....hands down the original.
Diana is so pretty in this interview
no
Yes! Gorgeous.
I don’t care what Diana says in interviews, I just tune in to see one of the most glamorous people ever in the world!
I love her. My favorite diva, that hair and voice truly beautiful
I just loooooooooooooooooove looooooooooooove Diana!!! She's natural, amazing and I so admire how a diva like herself can be so down to earth. A true role model for sure. Thank you for this clip so much
She's the voice of love!! A role model for our whole world; the greatest DIVA of them all!!
Never seen this interview before, boy is she still the most FIERCE DIVA of all times !!!
Diana looks very young and beautiful to be in her early 50s at this time.She looks gorgeous.Like fine wine better with time...
M MN Black don't crack
Why not simply say that she looks good.? Telling someone that they look good......for their age really isn't a compliment.
LOVE THE HAIR, I HAVE ALOT OF RESPECT FOR YOU. THE WAY YOU BALANCE, YOUR FAMILY AND CAREER.
Diana looks amazing!
TheFever77 always
She. Looks. Gorgeous omg
Love your hair Diana its different and straight very cute beautiful lady
Diana really suits the straight hair, makes her look younger
You're right. She actually looks younger with shorter and straightened hair instead ofthe blob mess she likes that engulfs her head. She wore this style when being interviews that trapezoid head shaped host.Looked good there too
Yes she looks gorgeous with straight hair and curly hair of course.
This comment didn't age well tbh
Her natural curls are also gorgeous
I've seen her only 13 times...I recall seeing her at the glorious Art Deco theatre in beautiful Oakland, the Paramount Theatre.. She was fab fab fab and sweet.. The audience was classy..as they witnessed her glorious blessed presence. As she sang her Bille Holiday classics, people called out and very respectfully..."Icon!! ...Diva!..." I was so proud.

I just adore MS DIANA ROSS
She's in a leather dress and looks great. She had kids at this point! Great figure for a woman who had children! I love the meeting with all of her songs used.
Diana is always beautiful 😻 and classy! Love her shine!!!
"You can't just work on your career and now have a balance in your life." TRUTH and she did it all with grace and class. What a beautiful woman and mother.
I LOVE DIANA!

Diana Ross looks great, and glowing skin. She is a legendary Diva.! Great voice and longevity career. She keeps winning, except in love department...oh well. TFS😚☺
diana ross is a amazing person thankyou for posting and sharing this interview
MARRY ME DIANA ROSS !!!!!!!
I wish she would wear her hair like this more often she looks great here
The Production Staff, did an excellent job of naming her songs! 👍🎶👍
She is so special. I love Diana for being so real...so down to earth.
i would give my life to meet this incredible lady,she is the one and only true queen.
That album EVERYDAY IS A NEW DAY was so slept on. Best album she put out!
WOW!! I've never seen this interview......Diana!! I love her so much.....She IS the mother!!

How can you blame Michael Jackson for falling in love so deeply with this woman
Diana looked really good
Matthew Mcbride Shidd, She always do!!
Diana stunningly beautiful,and I love ❤ the comedy of the show people.
Wow she was 55 here ?
lewisner if this was 1999, yes!
@Broccoli Beefed she still looks 55 in 2019. black don't crack, look at |Paddie labelle.
She looked no older than 40! ❤
I love this QUEEN! I remember watching Ms. Ross on tv doing a concert in the rain in CENTRAL PARK. I said “ She is a SUPERWOMAN💥💥 I love you DIANA🌹
Soooo beautiful, Diana Ross !
Dianna is so beautiful, talented.
You know what guys i just love diana ross
I was so happy to see her in SF this past week when she performed . I love it .
Because Diana is real and grew up without autotune. People think her classiness equates to phoniness, but it doesn't. Nicki Minaj is phony
Leave nicki alone and mind yo business
Wow! I can't believe that it has been 20 years since this airing! Diana, looks the same and everyone else, not so!! 🎶🎤🎶🙄
Joy, still looks good tho!
You cannot do anything with that woman! She is beautiful!❤
Yes you would. She does have that effect on people, even famous and rich people
I saw her when she was taping the video with Ru Paul "I Will Survive" It was filmed in West Hollywood , Ca.on an impromptu basis in 1995. A crowd naturally gathered, and they did their thing.

*MRS. ROSS IS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!*
Star Jones cant catch her breath
LOL
Lmaoo 😂😂
Pork skins
Right! And she’s just sitting there lol
Someone made a comment about how skinny and mal-nutritioned Ms. Ross looked in her younger days but, It was her Voice,her talent,and the fact that she was so skinny back then,that made her different from all of the other female singers.Like any flower,it has to blossom.

that Production meeting was awesome!!!!
Diana Ross fabulous💕💕💕💕💜💞💋
That sketch was great!
AMAZING DIANA ROSS!!! I STILL WANNA BE JUST LIKE HERE-- STILL!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU, MS ROSS!!! COME TO THE ATL PLS????
I can't stand Barbara Walters! but I love Diana!
😱WORDS CAN'T CONVEY HOW I FEEL ABOUT HER😰😱😨WALTERS
I think she was actually positioning herself against Diana. They opposite zodiac signs, btw.
Diana Ross your are so amazing i love all your music and movies you are so beautiful i love every thing about you , you got a free spirit 🙏💞love you.
05/18/2020. I love RUclips. And all that it has to offer!!! My favorite viewing.
The Madonnas and Lady Gagas may come and go, but Diana has a special presence and isn't vulgar.
@Punkanelly Lovejoy like what? Ill wait
@@baibeej6391 Read Mary Wilson's book
@Ronald McFondle She put in the work. She should get paid.
I love both Diana and her daughter, Tracee. And those earrings!🔥🔥
She look glamorous with her long hair
That 'production meeting' was hilarious 🤣👌🏾
Well done
It started in 1997 and they've had quite a number of host replacements since then. I personally think the show was at it's best with Meredith, Star, and Lisa.
Thats right!! The women back in the day were classy and unedited ..rare
The way she entered the room, is the way i enter my job everyday.....i spin around, whip off my wrap....and grant everyone with a million dollar smile and say.....WHAZ UP BITCHESSSSSSS
jezzuz shes as hot as hell
Such a wonderful woman!
By this time she was already divorced to Arne and Michael to Debbie. Michael tried to marry her again but she still say no :(
It is rather unfortunate, as we enter 2018, that NOT much has changed in film and television production rooms in regard to race. We are still singing and dancing wile they have all of the key positions and acquire all of the real wealth and security. #DiversifyYourStadd
@Katrina M What?
Love it!!!!
Best selling female group of all-time and motowns best selling group.
There is no other_
TY 4 a fabulous offering_
Diana sure does love those 10 carat diamond 💎💎 earrings, she wears them bunches lol 😊😊😊

Look at everybody gauking over her, she can get any man she wants.
Barbara was always trying to throw subtle shade at Miss Ross. It was no point of her bringing up Diana had redecorated her house like 20 yrs ago for their first interview. She really couldn't stand that Diana was a successful black woman who had standards just like her
@Broccoli Beefed haha sense of humor? Tf she was trying to embarrass Diana
I’m glad she is no longer on TV. She annoyed me.
diana is diana love her
STAR looked dim. DIANA ROCKED IT-
I wish STAR JONES was still around!
Diana 🥰🙏🏽
Diana, I love the glamour she always brings. Babba Wawa is downright jealous. Maybe she’d be more revered if she could do half the things Diana can.
Everyone has their own gifts and talents.
Pretty Brown Thing and is still so beautiful singing on the 2012 TBS Christmas Special.
Ela é muito linda sorriso lindo ela é muito charmosa❤❤❤❤ a Daiana ❤❤❤❤❤
*STAR LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!*
Where? That rhino in a wig
Love u.
Star jones, Oprah and others from my era were huge fans of diana. Why? No women who looked like her, talked like her and was intelligent and well spoken were on tv (truly).

Bravo staff, that was really cute lol 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
There were a lot of awkward moments in this interview... other than Diana Ross.
**BIG HINTING AT SOMEONE....** other than Diana Ross 😭😭😂
My Mum needs you and she’s more vulnerable than my uncle ~ xxx…
Fantástica!
Yeah, I think they only said that because of her printing in Guiness Book of World Records in 1993. Madonna has sold way more records than her. But remember, Madonna became an international star without even touring because of MTV. Madonna's concert tours also gross much more than Diana's and she plays larger venues
Diana looks so out of place on the sofa. Star seemed to be suffering star struck paired with asthma. Diana was such a lady aside these other women
BRADY MCGUIRE What are you talking about!!!!how can she look out of place on a sofa. That's the dumbest shit you could have said.
Daniel Robinson Ryt lol
i wouldn't say she looks out of place...she just naturally stands out. Not many people have a presence like that where you just notice them in a crowd or whatever.
STAR JONES looks beautiful here before that surgery
Black dont crack! And Diana seems she will never
This is what Michael wanted to look like. I see it now.
Keeping the CAPITAL “D” in DIVAS!!!👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
I miss The View. It is good but not the same.
