By Ross' teenage years, she had aspirations of being a fashion designer, studying design, millinery, pattern-making and seamstress skills while attending Cass Technical High School, a four-year college preparatory magnet school, in downtown Detroit. Ross eventually worked at Hudson's Department Store where, it was claimed in biographies, that she was the first black employee "allowed outside the kitchen".
She rose to fame as a founding member and lead singer of the vocal group The Supremes , which, during the 1960s, became Motown's most commercially successful act and is to this day America's most successful vocal group.
Following her departure from The Supremes in 1970, she released her debut solo album, Diana Ross, which contained the hits "Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)" and "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". Ross also ventured into acting, with a Golden Globe Award and Academy Award nominated performance in Lady Sings the Blues. Later starring in two other big screen films, Mahogany and the cult-classic The Wiz. Later acting included roles in the television films Out of Darkness and Double Platinum.
Beside ventures in Broadway, Ross was named the "Female Entertainer of the Century" by Billboard magazine. In 1993, the Guinness Book of World Records declared Diana Ross the most successful female music artist in history due to her success in the United States and United Kingdom for having more hits than any female artist in the charts with a career total of 70 hit singles with her work with the Supremes and as a solo artist. Diana Ross has sold more than 100 million records worldwide when her releases with the Supremes and as a solo artist are tallied.
In 1988, Ross was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as member of the Supremes alongside Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson.
In 2000, about the singer again actively talking to the media. To promote his new album "Gift of Love" she made a big concert tour, which was presented as pompous tour Diana Ross & the Supremes, although on concert posters were not mentioned neither Mary Wilson nor Cindy Berdson . On behalf of the Supremes were to play Linda Lawrence (Lynda Laurence) and Cherie Payne (Scherrie Payne), despite the fact that none of them ever sang together in the Diana Ross , while the band was still alive. On this tour promoters had high hopes , rumored prima should get 15 to 20 million dollars. However, the tour had to be interrupted after a few dates due to the absence of any public interest in the stars, the 30- year-old.
This crushing failure that followed soon after an exhausting divorce proceedings , during which the spouses had to share the half-billion state seriously affected the mental state of Diana Ross . She began to seek solace in alcohol and in the summer of 2002 in preparation for the North American tour , which was supposed to travel to 14 cities, suddenly fell into a rehabilitation clinic. The next round had to be canceled while the singer was undergoing treatment for alcohol dependence.
In 2003 , on the eve of its 60th anniversary , the actress sat down for the continuation of his autobiography , which decided to call "Upside Down". If you believe her interview, she was going to tell the whole truth about the last ten years of his life, divorce, the disastrous tour of addiction to alcohol, the sensational arrest ( for driving under the influence of alcohol ) . According to the spokesperson Diana Ross , this book is to show that "no one , including the stars, is not immune from the pain of loneliness , feelings of abandonment , of separations and divorces and all those losses and the problems that one encounters in the course of his of life.
