Mumbai, July 22, 2011

With 18 number-one hits, 67 albums, more than 100 million records sold and half a century in the spotlight, legendary Diana Ross is more than a music icon. She also symbolizes what can happen when a little girl dares to dream—a little girl like Oprah, who watched the Supremes way back in 1964.The guest this episode on Oprah Winfrey Show is one of the greatest singers of all times, the supreme icon, Diana Ross.

"I have to really keep myself from going into the ugly cry," Oprah said about interviewing Diana, "Because of how much this legend, this woman means to me and my life. ... I'm going to try to keep it together."

Diana may not realize her impact, but there's no debate that she's a beloved singer whose concerts pack in thousands of adoring fans. When did you think you'd made it'?" Oprah asked. "Never ! Diana laughed. "I've never been that overconfident about what's possible. ... When did you think you had made it?" "I think sitting here with you has made me make it," Oprah joked.

With such an impressive career, it surprises some people to know that Diana has never won a Grammy Award. (Though she has been nominated 12 times…) When Oprah asked Diana if this upsets her as much as it upsets her fans, she answered, "No, nothing really upsets me. I just appreciate still having the longevity that I've had in my career."

Diana's done it all. She's had hit movies and chart-topping songs, with such an amazing career, it's hard to imagine a day when Diana will stop singing. She said that there's one situation that could get her to stop. "I think that if my voice for some reason changes—because your voice does change—then it's time for me not to sing," she said.

Further Oprah surprised Ross with a special guest who was none other than her co-star from the film Lady Sings the Blues, Billy Dee Williams.
