AceShowbiz - Younger generations may not know this, but Diana Ross used to perform as part of The Supremes. She rose to fame as the lead singer of the vocal group, who became Motown's most successful act during the 1960s and one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. Their hits included the likes of "Where Did Our Love Go", "Baby Love", "Come See About Me" and "Love Child".
In 1970, Diana left The Supremes and embarked on a successful solo career in music, film, television and on stage. Her eponymous debut solo album was released in the same year and featured the U.S. No. 1 hit "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". Her next albums "Touch Me in the Morning" (1973), "Mahogany" (1975) and "Diana Ross" (1976) also became commercial success, as her songs such as "Endless Love", "If We Hold on Together" and "When You Tell Me That You Love Me" became some of her biggest global hits.
