Tina Turner And Diana Ross : A Very Long Friendship, 1969-2006

Diana Ross on Tina Turner death :
"TinaTurner was a force of nature, a true survivor , a role model for women everywhere and her music will live on forever "
During the extended twenty-minute rendition of "Let The Sunshine In" ( 1970), Diana Ross walked through the audience and let some of the guests sing the title-chorus of the song; some of these guests included Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson and his wife Claudette, Marvin Gaye, Frank and
Nancy Sinatra, Dick Clark, Lou Rawls, Steve Allen and Bill Russell.
"Farewell" is a 1970 live album by Diana Ross & the Supremes. The album was recorded over the course of the group's final engagement together at the New Frontier Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, including the final night on January 14, 1970.
The show marked Diana Ross' penultimate performance with fellow Supremes members Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong. At the conclusion of the show, new Supremes lead singer Jean Terrell was brought onstage and introduced to the audience.
The live album was issued as a two-LP deluxe edition box set, produced by Deke Richards. The album was reissued as a gatefold two-LP set under the title Captured Live on Stage! in 1982, and as a two-disc compact disc reissue "Captured Live on Stage!" , in 1992.

DIANA APPRECIATED AND HAD GREAT RESPECT FOR TINA INDEED😢. REST IN POWER MS. TURNER WE LOVE YOU FOREVER 💯😘🌹THANK YOU FOR GRACING THE UNIVERSE AND I KNOW YOUR SOUL WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.... 💜

I don't know how every thinks so negative of Diana. I've met her kissed her she has pushed many artists to higher heights she stood in the door for many at a time when none where let in world wide. Destiny's Child, commodores, Michael, Whitney, and hundreds of others. Know the total history. She stood outside of Motown for weeks on the sidewalk even in the rain before they let her in and wheeled the Supremes to the #1 Worldwide act. Then got nominated for an oscar without any acting lessons. She is a Diva originale. Always Respect Diana!

Gladys night discovered the Jackson ,5. Not Ross. Get your facts straight

[@kirbykipling9515]

​​@@tinpanally51_36 but Diana groomed them when they lived with her upon the family's move to Cali. Unless it has been changed, the post said nothing about her discovering The Jacksons.

[@deborahharrison7348]

@The1Manager I don't know either because Diana Ross have standard like she told Barbara Walter's cause she asked Diana Ross people call you Bitch and Diana Ross said cause Barbara I have standard just like everybody else and when you have standards than you are called a Bitch that's just what Diana Ross said to Barbara Walter's and Barbara didn't have a reply after Diana Ross said that

[@vic1101ful]

​@tinpanally51_36 No. Johnny Taylor discovered Michael Jackson. The affection that he shows Ross is always evident . Ross had them live in her home where she cared for the boys. They love Diana so much, she inducted them into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Cher was a good friend to Tina, they first met in about 1966, while Tina was recording River Deep, and Cher was doing session for Spector. Cher visited Tina in Switzerland in her last months.

[@joannjeter9239]

But ,what happen , really happen to the money??????????????

[@solovoyager]

I doubt they were bosom buddies, but there was a friendship. I remember Ross calling out for Tina during The Supremes farewell show in Vegas back in 69.

[@erossinema8797]

They were definitely friends. There are clips of them talking at Oprah's Legend's Ball

[@Maatization]

@@erossinema8797 One picture. The only picture of them together. And look at the look on Tina's face. I don't think she liked Diana. I think Diana was cool with her but Tina wasn't having it. I read a book her agent or someone close to her wrote and they said she gave Diana a ;lot of attitude when Diana was being nice to her.

[@lamoneal]

@@Maatization It's been said that Tina was miffed at Diana because she thought Diana knew about the abuse Ike heaped on Tina and, did nothing. Instead it was Ann Margret who helped Tina. Remember, Ross was arguably the most successful black female artist of the 70s. Turner thought she had to know. The story is the two met in a restaurant back in the 80s during Tina's comeback. Tina supposedly confronted Ross with Ross denying hearing about the violence. I guess it was sort of resolved. They were thought to be friendly but not close.

[@shannonswift2233]

Because fans want to know and because we are honoring Tina’s passing and Diana’s legacy. There wasn’t as much bts media to see stars in their element, much less interacting with other stars.. If you wanna be dismissive, there’s about 50 billion other KZbin videos more worth pillory and perdition.

[@MaynardJenkins]

What you probably did not know is that Diana Ross supported Tina Turner and attended her shows, especially the important ones and spoke highly of her, after Tina left Ike and did not have her comeback yet. That is what I was looking to see but Diana does not publish that.

[@Maatization]

Tina didn't like Diana...probably jealous..competitive...

[@daniella921]

Too much talent in one room

[@joeclarke6973]

There isn’t anywhere that showed a true friendship to be honest . Cher has said she had been visiting TT & quoted her in saying TT was ready to leave . Diana’s tweet mentioned “shocked “ l personally don’t think they were close at all .

[@MaynardJenkins]

What you probably did not know is that Diana Ross supported Tina Turner and attended her shows, especially the important ones and spoke highly of her, after Tina left Ike and did not have her comeback yet. They were not best friends, but Diana supported her artistry. That is what I was looking to see but Diana does not publish that, or the author may not have known that or could find it.

[@gracegreen1859]

Well she ain’t God. We should all be shocked when anyone passed unless you are a murder. Cher got more time on her hands to go to Switzerland. Diana lives in the states and has a whole family she can’t check up on all her friends. I’ll say they were definitely fond of each other. Did you see the documentary?! Diana was in there way more then Cher.

[@patrickandrew2785]

@@gracegreen1859 I also think TT was a private person. Is it crazy to think TT may have guarded herself from showing vulnerabity to some of her main music competitors friendship notwithstanding. And yes, friend, Cher may have beeen, I don't think she is in the same class as Tina, Aretha, Gladys, Diana, Dionne and the like.

[@gracegreen1859]

@@patrickandrew2785 not only that but Angela hasn’t seen her in recent years. Oprah saw her back in 2019. I mean that’s before the pandemic so… idk I think you’re right and it just applied to folks who she influenced and respected.

There was no long lasting friendship there between those two. Tina just mentions Diana’s voice in passing, actually in an interview

[@revollution2416]

tina said diana was one of her industry friends

[@PoliticalFunk007]

@95KIPPIE "I heard both Tina Turner and Diana Ross speak well of each other more than once, and I've seen them sit together at Oprah's Legends Ball. If they didn't like each other, they wouldn't have done that -- repeatedly. Diana Ross was excited to present that award for What's Love Got to Do With It to Tina Turner, and I remember watching that Grammy show. When she hugged and kissed her, it was genuine. On occasion, they both would tell each other they look good girl you look good. So, 95 Kippy, I know what I heard and what I saw, and I think you're wrong."

[@Over21Tracks]

True talk! @@PoliticalFunk007

[@michaelgarel4279]

I don't think they were close friends, but show business friendships are fleeting, unless it's based on something other than just the comradery of the biz...

[@Over21Tracks]

... almost like most gay friendships😎

[@Maatization]

I don't remember Tina hanging with any Black performers...and she definitely wasn't feeling Diana. Competitive...

[@elizabethtaylor8401]

Diana and Tina were friends ❤️❤️❤️

[@sixasofar2961]

Why not?

[@jodix1075]

I believe they respected each other and were friendly. Maybe not the type of relationship that Cher had with Tina. Also, do some of you people not understand that people are not always in the public when they talk and hang out. As social media should have shown you, these public friendships/relationships are not always what they appear. Tina will be missed and I hope that we have Diana for a long time. I only know/knew them thru the music that has been done.

[@pryncecharming2133]

They were never friends. Tina wrote three books and never mentioned Diana once. What is the point of this video?

[@erossinema8797]

But they respected each other

You should have done a video about Tina Turner being friends with cyndi Lauper there see seems to be more of a friendship between Tina and cyndi they seemed to have been more tighter for a long time, Cyndi Lauper even was on tour with Tina on her last tour

How the flip does anybody know these celebrities personal and private friendships with each other. They do need to be on ET telling the public who they’re friends with. Not like these silly crybaby musicians around now. Try spreading facts and truths instead of gossip and rumours, you don’t who was friends with each other.
