Long term supporters of Ross are quietly pulling the plug. This is a factor:
Diana Ross is treated for alcohol and drug addiction
By VICTORIA NEWTON, Daily Mail
Diana Ross is staying in a Californian clinic to tackle an addiction to alcohol and prescription painkillers.
The 58-year-old singer checked into the £20,000-a-month Promises centre in Malibu earlier this month after her five children asked her to seek help.
Miss Ross, who is due to join Rod Stewart in concert in London next month, is thought to have turned to alcohol and drugs after her 14-year marriage to Norwegian shipping tycoon Arne Naess ended in 1999.
She arrived at the clinic on May 21 and is expected to stay for another three weeks while she completes its 12-step programme.
Promises is a five- star rehabilitation centre which only treats patients with drug and alcohol problems.
It is located on the Malibu coast and has treated a string of famous names, including Ben Affleck, Charlie Sheen and Robert Downey Jr.
Last night Miss Ross's publicist Phil Symes confirmed she was being treated at the clinic.
'Diana Ross voluntarily entered Promises to clear up some personal issues before she starts on a summer tour in both the U.S. and abroad,' he said in a statement.
'She wanted to be in great shape because she is someone who feels a sense of responsibility to her family and to her fans.'
According to sources in the U.S., Miss Ross's children became concerned as she drank wine day and night.
'The pain pills were prescribed for an old injury,' added the source. 'But soon she was hooked on them too. She was becoming more and more depressed, and totally reliant on substances to make it through the day.
'And she was experiencing tremendous mood swings because of the pills and booze.'
Miss Ross seemed 'disoriented' when she checked into the Promises clinic, the source said.
'Maybe she was heavily medicated but she was acting like she didn't know where she was. Diana was very spaced out, walking around wearing a black silk dress with her hair all done up as if she was at some fancy Beverly Hills spa.'
It is the second time Miss Ross has sought help after her traumatic breakup with Naess, whom she has since divorced.
Last December she checked into a psychiatric ward at Century City Hospital in Los Angeles.
Miss Ross became a household name in the 1960s with The Supremes whose hits included Baby Love and Where Did Our Love Go?
In 1969 she left the trio to establish her solo career. In the 1970s, she played Billie Holiday in the movie Lady Sings the Blues, and starred with Michael Jackson in The Wiz, a musical adaptation of The Wizard of Oz.
She married 63 year-old Norwegian millionaire Naess in Switzerland in 1986 after meeting on a Caribbean island.
They divorced in a hearing in the Dominican Republic in February in 2000.
Two weeks ago, her children showed their devotion to her when they appeared on a U.S. television Mother's Day special with celebrity interviewer Barbara Walters.
Rhonda, Miss Ross's daughter by Motown creator Berry Gordy, sang a song she had written for her mother.
The other children, two daughters by her first husband Robert Silberstein, and two young sons by Naess, spoke warmly of what a wonderful mother she has been.

After reading about her treatment history, she has to be on psych meds. This is why her looks have changed so drastically.

Dia INSIDER: DIANA ROSS IS A MONSTER-IN-LAW TO ASHLEE SIMPSON!
By dsiegel

DIANA ROSS has become a Supreme pain in the neck as she takes over plans for her 25-year-old son Evan’s wedding to singer ASHLEE SIMPSON!
Sources say the 70-year-old diva is dishing out orders as she takes control of almost every facet of the festivities.
“Diana is already proving to be a monster-in-law,” declared an insider. “She’s driving Ashlee batty with her controlling ways and wacky demands.”
But sources say Ashlee, 29, has only herself to blame, because she asked for Diana’s help – and now the veteran entertainer has turned into the Wedding Planner from Hell.
“For starters, Diana is insisting the wedding be held at her Greenwich (Conn.) home even though Ashlee has her heart set on Los Angeles or Hawaii,” said the insider. “Diana also wants to stand by Evan’s side during the ceremony – and she’s insisting on singing during the nuptials AND at the reception.
“After Ashlee and Evan say their vows, Diana plans to sing an a cappella version of ‘Endless Love.’ Then, at the reception, she wants to do a 30-minute set of her songs.
“And even though Ashlee wants a vegan wedding cake, Diana says, ‘No way!’”
Making matters worse, sources say that Diana has picked out a showy ivory-colored gown that could outshine the bride’s!
“To top things off, Diana is insisting that Ashlee call her Miss Ross,” revealed the insider. “It’s gotten so bad Evan has had to turn into a wedding referee.”

The foundation of Ross' career has been image. Her charisma, innate sense of glamour, and sense of style are the reasons why Berry chose her over many of the women at Motown. Now that Diana appears in public looking like a hag, it's over.

I was told she is worth 150 million. I don't believe it. If she were she would have a cook and an assistant to cook and do grocery shopping.
