Diana Ross & the Supremes host Hollywood Palace (2 of 5)

[Ferney1c]

Personally I think Barry Gordy did the right thing in naming Diana Ross as the lead singer of the Supremes. I've heard all of the Supremes (Mary Wilson, Cindy Birdsong and Florence Ballard) and Diana had the more distinctive voice that was geared for the kind of songs they were doing! I do think that Florence Ballard could have had a GREAT solo career with the right material. Florence Ballard should have been promoted as a separate artist. Motown would have made money from TWO artists!

[SuperSeahorse22]

Wow! It's hard to take your eyes off of Diana - she really does have that other wordly STAR magic!

[TheReturnOfBigBear]

So TWTR4EVER (aka MusicInFlight007, aka SoulSearcher4U, aka mizzfoxy9) As Mary Wilsons Fan Club President & "Representative" Do ever Worry some may assume your Comments Mirror Miss Mary's Opinions?, People May start to think Miss Mary is a Petty, Jealous, Bitter, Duplictous, Back Stabbing Shrew?, You wouldn't want people to think that, would you TWTR?

[TheReturnOfBigBear]

TWTR4EVER Fixation? What on Earth would you know about "Real Men?, You're a Stewardess, for Christ Sake, Bet Mom & Dad are Really Proud to Talk about that @ The Family Reunion

Anyone who Obsessed Enough to Post over 1000 Vile Comments on Just 1 Diana Ross Site (Diana Ross/ Oprah Celeb TV) has to be a PSYCHO, "So I thought", But it Turns out You're "The President" of The "Yahoo, "Mary Wilson Fan Club"

[TWTR4EVER]

TheReturnOfBigBear What's your fixation with me? I made it clear to you, I don't do Drag Queens & Transexuals, only real men the thought of you in wig is repulsive!

Diane Ross at this point was well on her way to collect her bargain with Motown/Berry Gordy who she had been screwing for years for that "solo career"

No wonder they call her "THE BERRY GORDY MOTOWN WHORE"

Forever Diana: I LOVE MOTOWN!

[3FromTheOutside]

You all should see the clip of Diana dancing with Sammy Davis Jr. too. She was really amazing in that number as well.

[TheMotownManiac]

A SuperStar was born this night. I had been a Supremes fan since day 1 and everytime they were on TV they got better and better but Diana was exploding onto the scene. I recall this show as being THE night that I knew she was going to be around forever. Mary & Cindy were great, but Diana was...........SUPREME.

[TWTR4EVER]

@TheMotownIgnorance Stop your delusions and get your facts in order, by now Diane had Florence ousted from the group, was doing & blowing Berry, Mary help Cindy into the situation because as time would prove, THE QUINTESSENTIAL SUPREME (1959-1977) would be the "catalyst" that kept THE SUPREMES alive, long after Diane "ABANDON" the group in1969 and today "CONTROLS" their legacy, something "Missy" never will!

Diane bows every performance of "Baby Love" thanks to that legacy!

[TheReturnOfBigBear]

@TWTR4EVER Poor Dear, all the Time you spent " Doing & Blowing Men" and all you amounted to was a Bitter, Geriatric, Hispanic, Tranny Stewardess, What is your Legacy Miss TWTR?, (other than being the President of that 14 Member Yahoo Mary Wilson Fan Club)

[SpazChat]

Wow! It's easy to see why Diana became a great internationally famous singer. Just listen to that speaking voice!

[SinclairisCool]

Jesus would people stop calling her miss Ross! This isn't secondary school!! Her name is Diana.

[SpazChat]

@SinclairisCool It is Miss Ross, last time I checked she wasn't married, she's widowed

[casey3234]

Wow..... I never knew she had the ability to dance like this. 

[2toofine]

Ms. Ross is so beautiful here.

[1990soulman]

Im tired of everyone hating on Diana Ross saying she screwed her way to the top Diana was ambitious she had a goal and ego she wanted much more than the other two so she work hard for what she got she wanted to be the best you can't tell me or anyone who has eyes to see that's why she is the queen of motown Berry Gordy saw her strive and he saw that money too that's why she was lead and did most of the work she wanted to be number one and she did what she had to do rather it was good or bad

[BotMai]

Okay ... now this is a TOTAL star!

[ComoLaFlorr]

WOW SHE CAN DANCE! i knew she could dance but like this she is amazing

[blkshepherd]

People fail to REALize there are always Standouts in a group. Diana was the standout of the supremes. not to say the others werent good singers. of course they were Or they would not have been in the group Period. Michael was the Standout of the Jackson Five. although Jermaine Jackie could sing. David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks.were the Temptations..tho All could sing.even today. Beyonce and Justin were The standouts of their groups.although the others could sing. but who survived? Justin and Bey.

[paul51]

Miss Ross nailed it baby!!

[buddhaman4518]

@paul51 Yes she did!

[LoveTheSupremes]

Watching this video, I dont understand why cigarette smoking is considered such a normal thing. It's sick

[InsertName125]

"I wonder if his undertaker knows he got up!"  - I gotta use that one!

[atmybest4]

I have never seen this before! Diana nailed that dance routine! That's a bad woman!

[badgyrl310]

Seriously the girl is cold. I never knew Diana could dance. I never seen her dance before, she did her thing. Her outfit looks cute too. She's so tiny and petite like me.

[proverbs1824]

We'll never know if Flo or Mary had that special star quality because they never got to showcase their talents. Diana screwed her way to the top.......her first daughter is proof of that. Her star quality was just a "good promotional sales pitch' that was bacically shoved down peoples throats. Diana Ross didn't sell the Supremes......HDH did!!!

[paul51]

proverbs1824, believe me, Flo could NOT have performed this dance number, she was barely able to do the simple Supreme routines. And Mary would have counted her steps throughout this routine. Why-oh-why-oh-why can't you understand that talent got Miss Ross to the top. Jealously gets you nowhere. Look at Mary.

[blkshepherd]

diana screwed her way to the top..and I suppose Mary Virgin Wilson who banged TOm Jones, Steve Mcqueen, Flip Wilson was just as pure as the driven snow? Yeah yellow snow. . I suppose the six no.1s diana got as a Solo. an two without any supremes or HdH came from her sleeping around. Mary said in her book she had a boyfriend in every city. now it that aint a SLUT I dont know what is. You need to Read her own book she admitted she slept with married men. who shoved things down her throat!

[proverbs1824]

Diana Ross is best when she is with Mary and Cindy. Even better, Mary and Florence. Alone, she's like a fish out of water. A bird without feathers. A tree without a forest, or a forest without a tree!

Mary has the voice. Too bad she got stuck behind Diane instead of in front.

[babyluvchild]

Please. Diana Ross is the total package. I love the Supremes Mary,Flo & Cindy. Everyone at Motown knew who the real "star" yes Mary was the "sexy one" & Flo had "the trained voice" but the one who caught Berry's & the world was DIana Ross. All of the Supremes and almost everyone signed to Motown had talent but even more than talent you needed star quality. Yes Flo & Mary had an abundance of vocal talent listen to those great vocals but Ross was the personality & key to the Supremes.

[LANORDA9]

lol. Propaganda is funny. Clearly there are millions who prefer Diana as a solo artist. I am one of them. Correction. Alone, Diana became a legend in her own right.

[LoveTheSupremes]

Shut up, ya TROLL! You just want to incite and hear yourself talk

[LoveTheSupremes]

Mary has the voice? LOL! Dream on loser.

[nataniel70]

OMG. Fantastic. Diana Ross IS a star. Hackneyed, but true. And are these cigarette ads evidence against Big Tobacco? P.S. Meatball wig = gotta go.

[mlamike]

Diva!!!!

[sweetboy31380]

omg!!! that was so damn funky!! ive loved miss ross 4 all my 29 years and ive never seen her do anything like that! she worked the hell outta that!! god bless youtube! all these brilliant performances might have been lost!

[stage7]

In fact, 'he' looked like he was tryin' too hard!!!!

It didn't work so well to me. Hers was much more natural to 'me'!

[LoveTheSupremes]

He looks fat next to her, even though he isn't fat.

[sydders01]

WOW that dance routine was something else, no wonder she was voted entertainer of the century. iv'e never seen this show before, thank you for posting it x

[SissyGirl]

damn I love me some Ross. There was nothing that girl con not do! As a white person I totally enjoy the talents of Diana Ross. Honey, she is terrific!

[luvhangova]

oh---my----god!!!! the dance routine??? I remember seeing that when it aired. WOW...that's why they call her MISS Ross!! Awesome!!!

[LoveTheSupremes]

Diana Ross poise, charisma, and grace was wildly entertaining in and of itself. That's something you can't teach an entertainer, you either have it or you don't. Just look and listen to her, her star shines with blinding light. Notice how euphonious her speaking voice is. She definitely had the whole package... Something that isn't easy to accomplish or master..

[Supense37]

thats my baby mommy

[whitney2whoopi]

Diana Ross is the best.

[FABULOUSFAG]

does anyone else agree that lady ross should be on next season's dwts?she got my vote!!

[divalish]
