Beyonce is not a diana ross and will never be a diana ross. Ross helped make blacks accessible to TV audiences and helped the racial issues in the 1960s.

Beyonce is the "Lola Falona" of the 2000s. Beyonce is not a role model as she did not open doors for blacks; the door was already open. Also, Beyonce has never made a signature song that has lasted since 1964 "Baby Love." Give us all a break! those of you who post here have your education where you sit after your first cup of coffee in the morning! Only, the ignorants will reduce Ross to wigs, gowns, hair, gay fans, loudness, et.

Given what Ross had to begin with, Ross will be remembered...not Whitney Houston who drowned in her own bath water, or Beyonce who shows her body and hair but whose voice can be found in any nightclub!

Ross is an original!
