The glamour, the hits, the hair – Diana Ross truly has it all. 

Born in Detroit in the forties, Diana was raised by a strict Christian family who was active in the church choir. However, Diana learned secular music from a cousin, which led her to audition unsuccessfully in a school musical. Serendipity prevailed, as this rejection lead her to form the legendary Supremes with Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard. Progressing into international stars, the ultimate girl group were recognised as America’s most successful vocal band. Diana left the trio to embark on a solo career and continued to be a musical icon. Album after album of incredible music with tracks such as ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’ and ‘I’m Coming Out’ retained her place in the limelight. Expanding her horizons further she branched out into acting and was even commemorated with a Golden Globe in 73. With a career spanning over four decades, this Motown queen is one of the most successful female singers of the rock era. Along with her time as the lead singer of the Supremes, Diana has received numerous awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
