Diana Ross, her birthday, the book

Diana has turned 63 last week, it isn't known if she blew candles or just took it easy.

For the 3rd time, biographer, TV reporter and journalist Randy Taraborrelli has written a biography of Diana Ross. It's out in the UK already but again, us stateside will have to wait, it can be pre-ordered at Amazon US. California based Taraborelli has written biographies on Madonna, Cher, Michael Jackson, Motown, Grace Kelly, Frank Sinatra, etc.

And yes, the disco years are covered, not as deeply as the Motown years, but it's all there.

If you did read "Call her Miss Ross" (published 1989), you'll recall the similarities between the real life Supremes and the Dreamgirls musical, quite striking! That is also discussed.

Diana Ross, an unauthorized biography is "Call her Miss Ross" revised, revisited and written from a different perpective, going deeper, augmented with new material and continuing where it left off from 1989 till the 00s.

Diana Ross is on tour now and the critics are unanimous, she's still the queen!

Some of the books mentionned above are out of print but they are available at your public library. Diana Ross also released 2 cds in the last 6 months
