Diana Ross Speaks Candidly Michael Jackson & Their Relationship! | the detail.

Diana Ross was probably Michael Jackson's most enduring famous friendship as the Supremes star introduced him and his brothers to the American public at the start of the Jackson 5's commercial success in 1969.

Over the years two bonded and they shared a natural affinity with each other that continued into adulthood. Although in later years, Diana felt that celebrity and his immense success took Michael away from her causing the two to fall out of touch. Here are her words as she speaks over the years about their connection, giving an insight into the man and the magic behind Michael Jackson.

I love the way she never allow people to disrespect him in her presence and she always had his back no matter what and I’m sad that he’s gone I am sad for her too. I love the both of them

[twhaley]

I love how she let it been known to not insult Michael in her presence

[isaacs]

People have no idea the price MJ paid to give the world such great music and entertainment. He was gifted but he worked so so hard!

[coilylani]

I feel like she was one of the only friends who understood he would never have normal anything, So she gave him what he needed most .. COMPASSION. Everyone scrutinized his name his WHOLE LIFE and she is the only one who had the great chance to know the real him.

I love how Diana defended him!!! So much respect for her

[aavalestormiconicperformer]

Diana really knew who Michael was in his heart unlike most of us. She knew what really made him sad and what really mad him happy.

[Barbeeluvable]

She was a friend, a mother figure, and a mentor. It was a special relationship.

That clip of Diana in the white dress & MJ wearing jeans on stage is pure magic. X

[zestlife]

Michael is so freakin gorgeous. His eyes and nature are so innocent. He’s bashful, Dear GOD, ..and his talent! This is why I will always love Michael Jackson.

[BornBaby]

It doesnt get anymore LEGENDARY than Diana Ross! From black and white antenna television in the early 1960s all the way to 2021. That woman and her career has helped to build the foundation of the modern day music industry we see today. I'm in awe. She has seen so many people come and go. She is literally walking history! A national treasure. Theres really not that much more people of her era left that has had a career of her Caliber.

[MannysMillennialMouth]

I don't understand what they expected Evan Ross to say like he was born back

[bonnymcdonald]

I don’t care how many years pass, Michael’s death is extremely sad. He was far to young, far too misunderstood and far too lonely. I believe his loneliness is what got him killed

[FinarfinNoldorin]

She introduced the world to a legend that will never die.

[Belrivers]

People talk too much about things that are none of their business. Love does not always mean sex. Friendship is love.

[joshuapeacock]

TEARS when she was singing to Michael. you could tell that she missed him terribly, and it’s just so sad that after all she was to him, they inevitably grew apart in those years 😭😭😭😭

[nyiniamako]

Diana checked that man about Michael. Kudos to her.

[CJWahanui]

Diana is that friend you always want in your corner! Compassionate, trusting, loyal and unconditional love, just love her 😘

[applehead]

“When I heard Diana Ross was getting married, I was happy for her because I knew it would make her very joyous. Still, it was hard for me, because I had to walk around pretending to be overwhelmed that Diana was getting married to this man I’d never met. I wanted her to be happy, but I have to admit that I was a bit hurt and a little jealous because I’ve always loved Diana and always will.”
