new to the site. She really blew her career. This vid could put a person ina sleep deep enough to have a root canal. These recordings are just disgustingly bad! Maybe in a hundred years people will find them and appreciate them, but I highly doubt it!
It's obvious marv2/Hector has a very unhealthy obsession with Diane Ross or he simply despises her. That said, why doesn't he just abstain from posting in Diana Ross threads that either enrage or offend him. Every Diana Ross thread he posts in immediately goes south with his offensive comments, veiled threats of violence and personal attacks.
Whenever Diana tours and gets good reviews, or some sort of important award from her peers, it seems to ignite a rage within marv2/Hector and the lashing out begins.
If you can't say anything nice about someone, don't say anything at all. I'm sure there are many here who don't like some of the other Motown stars or other former Supremes but nobody lashes out against them on a daily basis.
Someone wrote me that marv2/Hector probably likes the all the attention, which if true is desperately sad. It's really time he stops this. It's getting old and it is extremely immature.
I am permanently putting marv2/Hector on ignore at Soulful Detroit and I strongly urge everyone else to do the same.
Have a blessed and beautiful Sunday.
Roberta

Most children of famous parents try to distance themselves from them to establish their own identities, but not these children of Diana Ross. They come out at the end of every show, whatever cheap dive she is playing these days. Didn't she just release an album - Rhonda? So why is she coming on stage at the end of every Diana show? Diana needs to teach Rhonda about hair and makeup. She doesn't look very nice in this photo.

Doesn’t this woman have a life beyond what happened over 40 years ago? It must be hard for her to accept that she has no other claim to fame then her association with Diana Ross. Like Dana wrote, even her songs are about her. Obsessed much. MOVE ON!

Someone described Rhonda as looking like something you'd see running around the plains of Western Africa.

Ross' career continues to decline and you have DIE HARD fans that are in denial. Ross is obviously out on the road because she has to be, and as a result she is playing dates that are an embarrassment to someone of her former stature. Who would have thought in the 60s, 70s, and 80s that Ross would be playing 30 minute sets, with backing tracks at 800 seat dinners, or that Ross would have a website announcing she is available for booking at you next event?
Ross has no offers for a new album. Of course she could release something independently with her 250 million forturne.
Just Awful! She needs Berry Gordy and Motown for everything. This is such a pretty song.

If folks are allowed to express their opinions on the President, you had damn well know, they have the right to express their viewpoints on a washed up singer from the 60s!

Sadly Mary Wilson never ever had much of a fan base. Mary burnt a lot of bridges when she wrote her books and now she wants to write, or is writing, another two books. The first one is a coffee table book about the Supremes stage costumes that she's been talking about for the past seven years. LOL. The other one, she mentioned last month when she was in concert in Riverdale, NY, is about Mary sharing how she dealt with triumph and tragedy mainly: the end of her Supreme dream & the loss of her son and wait for it, her love for her 'sister' Diane. Still making a buck of Ross. LOL. I think we have all read about enough about all of three of those subjects. Personally, I think it's tasteless, tacky & vulgar for celebrities to exploit the death of a son or a relative for profit. We've seen a lot of that lately with Katherine Jackson and Marie Osmond all going on national TV, hawking CDs and books that let others know how they're dealing with tragedy and grief for a price. Everybody grieves and experiences loss at some point, but celebs are being paid to exploit their own troubles and pain. It's obscene. Keep some things private. If they really want to help others, donate some time or money to average families coping with loss, don't write a damned book or release a CD that people must buy to read or hear edited, and publisher approved, bullshit words of wisdom you have about dealing with the ups downs of life. Truth is - as it stands today - Mary Wilson's actual MONEY SPENDING fanbase is small - in the hundreds, maybe a thousand - but not the much needed 100,000 plus to turn a profit for a third book or that damned CD she's been shamelessly plugging for 14 years.

My understanding is that it is 2 fathers for the mulattos. However, they all have a different look about them, and Ross has a history of lying about these things. 5 kids - five different fathers? No contest for me on the whore aspect.
It is interesting that none of them look alike. LOL. Now that is real funny Marv2/Hector. LOL Thanks for the laugh. Fondly, Roberta

If Take Me Higher is considered a fan favorite, and one of her best albums - what does that say about the amount of her fan base?

Her fan base is minuscule now. People walked away from Diana Ross in droves back in the 80s. Her releasing really bad music, combined with her treatment of people has completely sunk all aspects of her career. "Take Me Higher" did not even make the Billboard Hot 100. No one really knows the song even though she had the golden opportunity of a Super Bowl halftime show to promote it! How could you end up selling only 130,000 copies after performing it before the largest television audience of the year?

How could you end up selling only 130,000 copies after performing it before the largest television audience of the year? The answer is Diana Ross.
Berry Gordy focused all of his attention on Ross in the 70s, and if you review her records sales there was a resistance to her then. Even what is considered her best effort, The Boss, managed to sell in the 700,000 range and the single 250,000.
I don't think how good the album is, who she worked with, and how much of the machine was behind her record, I do not think Ross could have a hit record again. It has been too damage over too much time, and too many people hate her. Her name was controversial in the 80s, either you loved her or you hated her. Most people hated her, considering her 100, 000 or so albums sales for every album released since 1985. I know it was hard to take when Madonna, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston and others were selling 20 million worldwide with each album. Besides Force Behind The Power, Ross' worldwide album sales never passed the 200,000 mark for each album. A little girl from SD may argue that an album for example went top ten in the Netherlands, resulting in 14,000 units moved.
