Happy Birthday, Miss Ross!!

She was always my favorite, and today she's one year older.

Diana Ross turns 65 today.

There was always something about Ross that I liked. I could never pinpoint just one thing. It just seems that she eclipsed being a singer, but was more of an entertainer.

I got hooked on her a long time ago, circa "Upside Down."

Below are two of my favorite Ross clips. The first combines my two favorites, Ross and New York City, as she opens her Central Park Concert on July 21, 1983. She's radiating energy:



and in 1997 along with the new Supremes, Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras

I met Ross on January 16, 2007 in New York. I could go on and on about the encounter, but I would be typing forever.

Just take a look: She touched me in the morning, and it made the sign of the cross!


And here she is vamping by the piano

Hello fellow Ross fan,

I'm glad I finally got to visit your blog and I look forward to future visits.

I was at the Central Park concert both nights, I can't believe how long ago it was.

All the best.
