I am not trying to bring down Flo’s memory. I am advocating for the truth to be told. The idea that Diana Ross was reaponsible for all of Flo’s woes in just plainfalse. Diana Ross was themost abused by Berry of them all. Even Mary said so in her book. They often felt sorry for her. All of the girls were talented. Diet pills are drugs.
Yes. Diana did pull at Flo’s pony tail. She was not taunting her about her flopped records. Flo didn’t even have the contract yet. Please read JRT’s latest bio on Ross. She told Cholly Atkins, Mary and others that she thought Berry should help Flo’s career.
You consider me pulling down Flo’s memory because I AM NOT ALWAYS IN AGREEMENT with what you and Mr. Gardner ahve to say about Flo’s talent,experiences, etc.
I never said Diana was responsible and never implied that!I am just saying that somethings were so unnecessary and Flo did try regardless of who tried to stop her and I have the uttermost respect for her for that and what she has contributed to music. The Supremes. The First Lady of The Supremes RIP
Florence seems very uncomfortable here. Mary said on an interview once that Flo just didn’t like the fluff. But if you notice at around 4:08 into the performance,she seems to be finally comin’ around. To beautiful and died way to soon.
I wish we could buy this
Mary said in her book that this was Flo last gig with them on television before they kicked her that is maybe why Flo was not to much into it because she knew what waas going really.
This is not Flo’s last television appearance. That would come a few days later when The Supremes performed “The Happening” on The Tonight Show. Check my Supremes Medley for a snippet of that appearance.
was diana singing live ?Her voice is superb here.
Of course it was live. There were almost always live. Diana is the consummate entertainer.
That’s because Flo didn’t like how the group was forced to do that Hollywood-like mainstream stuff. She thought it was fake. It might have seemed fake but it worked and fit Diana’s voice and demeanor like a glove.
jimjeffjeanine puhleeez, I would love to have been abused like Diana Ross was. What on earth are you talking about? Diana Ross was an still is a super trouper, and perfectionist and didn’t stop till she got it perfect, even if she collapsed from exhaustion. That’s what it took to get to the top back in those days. You had to earn it.
Great video! Thank you sooooo much for sharing!
you are so welcome i know it looks really bad..sorry about that..
No problem at all. It`s evidently an old piece but it is just a jewel.
this song is just amazing!

The Supremes were never better than when Flo sang really strong against Diana……..with Mary’s help. And Mame is a perfect example of that.

I find it interesting how Diana’s voice didn’t need to be powerful because of it’s piercing quality and very high pitch.
