I saw her last night on PBS channel talkin about people need to watch PBS to support the old r&b singers of the 60's & 70's. I was watchin a promo for Motown: The Early Years on PBS last night. They showed a old clip of The Supremes singin old songs. Florence Ballard who was in The Supremes was cute back in the day. It's a shame she died young. What did she die of? I also saw a old clip of Marvin Gaye singin Ain't That Peculiar & another old clip of him & Tammi Terrell singin Ain't No Mountain High Enough.

Flo died of a heart attack in '76 and was still in her thirties. :(
I've always thought Mary Wilson was the prettiest member. And she still is, imo.

Mary is cute but i think Florence was better lookin than her. Diana Ross scares me with those big eyes of her's LOL. Her daughter on Girlfriends tv show looks just like her because she got big eyes too LOL. I thought Diana was kinda sexy back in the early 80's when i saw her Swept Away video. I think i might've saw her Muscles video too.

Flo was cute, she had meat on her bones but it worked on her.
LOL @ Diana's big eyes. I thought about posting that but I chickened out. And yes, you are right about Tracie Ross. Her eyes are bigger and bug out more than her mother's eyes. She looks like a scarecrow to me. LOL
With that, I will say Diana did have it going on in the '80s. I can't believe at that point, she already given birth to three children!?! Drag Queens love them some Diana!

My father has Diana Ross's self titled album which came out in 1970 that has the hits Reach Out & Touch Somebody's Hand, Ain't No Mountain High Enough. The album cover scared me when i was a kid because of how ugly Diana is when she was a kid hahahahahahahahahaha. The album cover shows her as a kid. Her eyes are so big on the album cover & that's what scared me. I'm scared to look at the album cover now LOL.
