- The legendary singer was one of the night’s performers and she was the recipient of one of the night’s biggest honors: the Lifetime Achievement award.
After a stirring introduction from her youngest son Evan-and a suitably epic video detailing her amazing personal, musical and cinematic history and influence-Ross strode down a shimmering staircase to the stage to belt her euphoric 1980 hit “I’m Coming Out.” Resplendent in a purple gown, she led an ecstatic crowd through her latter-era gem “Take Me Higher” and “Ease on Down the Road,”-a track from The Wiz, the 1979 retelling of The Wizard of Oz that saw her star alongside her onetime Motown label-mate, Michael Jackson.
With the energy at a fever pitch, she eased into the passionate slow-burn ballad, “The Best Years of My Life”-the lyrics taking on a special significance given the honor of the evening-before welcoming four of her grandkids to dance as she riffed on her signature song, “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.”

One of the most sincere, entertainers of all time. People can talk trash, but how much her kids adore her tells you something about who this person is. Still tearing the house down in her 70s.
To the 42 haters here who gave the thumbs down...SHAME ON YOU!! You obviously do not see greatness right before your eyes. Diana Ross is a singing goddess...one of the greatest legend in the last 100 years.
Whilst others like Whitney, Britney, Amy Whinehouse and many others have all seen their singing career ruined as a result of drugs and substance abuse, Miss Ross continues to shine even at 74.
She still has the same poise, elegance and hauntingly beautiful vocals to go with her ageless beauty.
I love how Justin Harley is literally in awe of this woman. Diana Ross crosses ever mountain of generations and races, and sexualities and just simply leaves a mark of brilliance and light in all of our lives
I went to her show at Radio City Music Hall and she pulled me on the stage to dance with her, it was MAGICAL!!!! Diana is one of the most underrated best female singer. Her receipts prove why she's the FIRST BLACK female SUPERSTAR.
Back in 2005 I saw Diana in concert and was in the 3rd roll with my Mother. At one point I was so jazzed that I stood up and made eye contact with Diana Ross and mouthed the words... I love you...she mouthed back...I love you
Maatization awww
Lucky you🤦and am jealous 😁
Dear Maatization ... some of us would never be the same again if we were ever lucky enough to experience what you describe !!!
So happy (see envious) that you have that incredible experience that many of us would gladly sell a kidney for🥳
So sweet 😍
Diana Ross is a trail blazer and her long recording career has brought joy to so many of us. There's no doubt in my mind that without Ross as lead singer in The Supremes, that group would not have been this huge. Artist like Diana, Michael etc., was so unique and special you just had to stand up and say WOW.
She should have won the Oscar for “Lady Sings The Blues”!
Finally Diana Ross got a Lifetime Achievement Award from AMA. So well deserved for the beautiful legendary Diana Ross. Sold out concerts everywhere. Keep singing and performing. The fans love her.
And no Grammy.
@@adale2771 but Grammy gave her lifetime achievement award ahead of AMA
When the grand kids starting dancing. I lived! What a LEGEND. She still got it ❤️
Yes!!!!!
I think she is the most glamorous woman that ever lived.
Wes Pic easily.
Simply georgious
WOW. Look at her. That a combination of poise, Love, elegance, talent and good moisturizer
That was breath taking. Diana Ross grand son stole the show.
Vernon Moses I became a fan of that young man right then.
He appears to have inherited Diana's performing genes.
Too bad he couldn't have stolen a comb.
@@caramelrhapsodyjesseslife There always has to be someone who makes a rude comment among all the love. I guess haters gonna hate.
Whispering Mist His natural hair is beautiful. Just because you’d be insecure about your hair doesn’t mean he has to.
I'm so glad she sung her own songs and not terrible artists of today. 🙌🏾
You know she's never written a song in her life, right?
The grandson is going to be a star. He speaks so well!!!
Definitely DIANA ROSS is a legendary icon and inspiration for all. Thanks for giving us so much love.
The best to ever do it!!!!
I grew up listening to Diana Ross! She is truely a legend! About time she got this achievement! 💘 you Diana! Lived in Southfield, Michigan (72-73) Grew up listening to Mowtown cklw! Thank you Diana for all the great memories! You're an inspiration to many! Beautiful family! 💗💗💗
No one can do it like she can, oh just love her!!
I LIKED HOW SHE CALLED HER GRANDCHILDREN! UP ON THE STAGE! AND HER WHOLE FAMILY!
Omg the children at the end OMGGGGG SO CUTE!
As always Diana is QUEEN
BEST part of the night.
I love that she focused on her family who was her treasure.
I loved seeing Berry Gordy on stage with Diana. He looks small & almost insignificant there, but I suggest that without his vision, guidance & inspiration, not only Diana Ross, but so many Motown stars would never have become the legends they have. Well done to him, and all.
omg she looks so good wow
her skin is glowing
hair still fabulous
body on point
this woman has the secret of youth
Vittler X 74 never looked so good!
She looks pregnant 👀👀
@@iluvrachellef Get back to us when you are 74! HA!
@@kev7161 I will. 👌🏾
@@iluvrachellef That's only if you're still living....& functioning in your right "mind"?
The audience during this performance is amazing! Looks so much fun!!
Jamie Fox is in love with her. He’s on the verge of tears. She paved the way for him.
Her grandson was like....put me in the game coach!!!! I'm ready! 😂😂😂😂😂
Why does Evan look like El Debarge?
That kid is berry gordy grandson he stole the show Diana had no idea he was getting it
The boy was like😎
@@ccrdcd38 😂😂.. Yes he was most definitely getting it!
Even looks like El because they both are mixed
@@ikexbankai its Evan
Wow!! Nearly 60 years performing! Nobody does it better! Amazing performance and beautiful family x
She's in her 70s, but good guess.
@@trintube68 The poster said nearly 60 years performing, not 60 years old. Pay closer attention before posting a snarky comment
one of the most deserved rewards ever given out. some may say it took too long..but like anything good it has to simmer for a while..just made this that much more important.
M job QQ1P11
Classy, elegant, beautiful! Diana has not lost a step. She looks fabulous! Her grandchild needs his own show! Such a force already and that glorious head of hair! Too cute!
This made me cry. She is nothing short of FABULOUS!!
Agree.
She had been, always my example of Stardom!
I cried too!!
@@brandy1883 rush up on the stage next time you attend one of her performances. Then raise her dress up over her head (don't be shy) and get yourself a sad eyeful of the root of her stardom.
The REAL BOSS finally got her just due. 4EVER love my QUEEN DIANA ROSS. ♥
To be the woman that inspired Oprah THE WINFREY speaks volumes. Diana IS the trendsetter, she set the bar. She IS A LEGEND
Miguel Alves exactly what I was thinking!!!
Ik that was lol
Dear Miguel ... Uncle places his hand upon his heart in a sign of respect unto the very "LEGEND" ye speak of !!!
Oprah THE Winfrey😂😂
I know it is pretty off topic but does anyone know a good website to watch new tv shows online?
I.ve got to admit, no one made the stage more inviting, family oriented, and brought a oneness to the atmosphere, from the stage on down to the entry doors, than Diana.
Her signature of bringing individuals onto the stage is a technique you just will not find in other artists. It's her way of saying, "it's not just about me, but all of us are in this thing together."
I've never been a die hard Diana Ross fan but I always respected her artistry. She's a true master of making this part of the industry look and feel like a beautiful thing.
Just great showmanship all around.
5:27 her granddaughter singing along 😍😍😍 she knows the words!!!
_"Grand Mommy, I'm so proud of you... I love you all, too!"_
He sounded so much like her when he said the last part! :-)
Class , beauty, glamour. Congratulations Diana Ross. So full of love and passion. The Best Years Of My Life is a song goes straight to the heart. Much love to this multitalanted phenomenal woman.
Valorie Gordon. She sure does have it all.!
The young handsome man at 8:22 looks so blessed to be in the presence of greatness. But then again, aren't we all blessed too to be living in the era of the great Dians Ross?
I loved his reaction to HER!!! Totally taking with her!!!
When Diana sings the birds remain silent! She is a goddess. Love her since my youthness.
Diana Ross is everything no wonder Michael can't stop loving this eternal Goddess
Queen Of Music!
Mahogany Jackson beautiful
10000000000000%yessss
Wowwww it reminds me of the Good Old days when she was everywhere and making people with her Music Talent and inspiration. The example of what a superstar is,,,, One of a kind Love u Diana go back to the studio please
Ms. Ross this is Gary Corbin, who likes to think I am your number one fan. CONGRATULATIONS. You are my NUMBER ONE inspiration ever since I first saw you on the Ed Sullivan Show decades ago. I have seen you live many times since the late 70's. In 1975 I was diagnosed with bone cancer and had to have most of my right leg amputated. One of the first things my family did was buy the Mahogany album and showered me with pictures, your music etc. It helped me heal. Recently, I celebrated 42 years as a cancer survivor. You helped me know I would survive and live a full life in pursuit of achieving my hopes and dreams. I am now an actor, playwright and producer. Seeing you still strong, productive and beautiful inspired me to recently earn my MS degree decades after my BA in Theater. I hope to meet you face to face some day to tell you in person how much you mean to me. Some of the happiest days of my life include this MARVTASTIC night, seeing you receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom from my hero President Obama, and hearing that you received and Oscar nomination. I am now 60 years old and at the end of my life, one of my GREATEST joys will be having you in my life.....always giving me hope.....inspiring me to be the best I can be.....no matter what the obstacles....ain't no mountain high enough!!! The only two people who inspire me more may be my mom and grandmother. Still, you are my number one inspiration, star and guiding light. You are indeed a golden Lifetime Achievement. Much love. Gary
Beautiful Gary! I hope, one day, you meet her! Much love to you!
I hear Diana Ross and I am a teenager again. Not easy for a very old man
A true national treasure , PRICELESS.. , seen her in person, THE BEST.
Gorgeous!! This is how you do a performance!
Diana Ross grandson has the it factor, the music critic that viewed show stated he will be a Mega Star., his grand father is Berry Gordy.
The ultimate DIVA trendsetter innovator Boss Lady who started it all
Omg I knew I heard BossLady B4 I had a friend who gave me that nickname
Congrats to the GREATEST and MOST SUCCESSFUL and MOST INFLUENTIAL Female singer entertainer of ALL TIME! The Queen Boss! The PHENOMENAL Diana Ross!
THE ONE AND ONLY WOMAN OF ALL KIND.
ELEGANT,,,,SUPER CHIC ,,,,,,FANTASTIC VOICE ,,,,,,THE SAME BEAUTY TIMELESS,,,,!!!!!!!!!! INCREDIBLE
finally someone who really deserves it...still love her after all these years
A FIRST?! Diana's Family coming up on stage. Beautiful. Lovely
When a 74 year old woman outsings people 50 years younger, you know we have a problem.
David Fletcher Absolutely lol
David Fletcher 😂😂 Awwh come on now, Imagine Dragons was pretty awesome : )
The music industry isn't like it used to be..like it was back in the day.
Barry Gordy.. Motown!
David Fletcher it's the drugs the other singers did to mess up their vocal cords
A night of beauty and splendor. Well deserved honour
This just fills my spirit so much ... I come back here and watch it ( every once in a while) like a favorite scene from a real-life movie (smiles) -- the music, songs, performance, the family the legend herself; one and only #DianaRoss ♥
Wow. DIANA is still the BOSS. When I was young and shy, 'I'm Coming Out' helped me overcome some of my shyness. I was also at Central Park in the rain with my Grandmother, [RIP] Mama Lee. Ms Ross thanks for the inspiration and music. My Mother, LeeOlive Tucker aka The Harlem Diva is a vocalist and actress also and she just turned 70, I look forward to seeing her get celebrated and receive awards in the near future. Keep doing it Diana, continued Blessings and Successes Abundant to you
An Icon, a Superstar who will go on forever. Thank you Diana for your songs
The Queen will always reign!!!! 👑👑👑♥️♥️♥️♥️
She just floated in as the goddess she is and still got it wow
Too gorgeous , too graceful forever . Time could not harm her grace, I m amazed , what thing makes her so young n full of life . A bif salute to her .
It made me cry!!... She's a Legend!
Omg. I was smiling while watching her. So amazing
Underrated MegaStar....Diana Ross
Buddy Pineda never underrated!!
Always elegant, poised and composed...rare breed of Diva.
Can't copyright that Ms.Bee!
@@brandy1883 ???
One thing about Mrs Ross she always kept her personal life private and I've never heard any scandals involving her! She's the definition of class!!!
SO MUCH THRILLING! Seeing her sharing her huge talent upon the stage at the age she is among her family is a blessing! MIss Ross DOES DESERVE IT ALL! QUEEN DIVA
I've always loved Ms. Diana Ross. she is and always will be the Queen of all time
I truly grew up with Diana from the beginning to now, even before the Ed Sullivan show the eyes and voice captured my heart and soul. Diana belongs far above anything man can conceive Diana was and is a gift from God. May she continue to do his work. God bless you Diana. May he always Gide your steps. From all that grew up with you we love you.
Amen.
And thats how its done. drop that mic Momma Ross !! amazing
Her name is Diana, and she is not your momma.
@@Michelle-pn9xt Her name is Diane and she is known as the bastard-breeding-bitch of Motown.
@@punkanellylovejoy702 then why are you up here. You must live a sad life holding on to 55 year old rumors. Seek help.
Diana Ross lift her wings up she is truly angel on Earth
I saw Diana live in Charlotte, NC in 1983...what a talent, what a fabulous beauty and fashion Icon... Thank you for the joy and wonderful sounds you gave to all of us all of our lives!! .I love you Diana!
Excellent voice!! Hard to believe Ms. Ross mesmerized me as a child and continues to perform so powerfully today!!👏🏽❤️🌹
Wow Diana still has it!
Listening to all those songs. I can honestly say. The best music has come and gone
I love how she can just stand there and dazzle thousands. Everyones dancing, clapping and breaking it down and she just stands singing without moving a inch.
Omg her grandson with the Afro break dancing on stage is everything !! He’s def the next star of the family !! Lol not shy whatsoever that’s called born to be a star ! He has no cares in the world that millions and millions of ppl are watching him lol that’s how Michael was !
Stunning performance from the Lady! The Best in the Industry! Endless and timeless talent...God Bless you Diana Ross!
Thank God for Diana, this Lady has grace and soul, brings tears to my eyes
This is a beauty'full tribe of many colors
YES..GIRL..YOU BETTER DO THAT !
I remember seeing a tv special she did that was 2 hours long back in the early 80’s and I cried throughout most of the program. This lady is without a doubt a special and lovely woman. I truly felt the love she has for people through her singing. I’ve never felt this way from any other performer especially to this extent!
I love her.
Wow... true legend
This was beautiful.I am so in tears. Still the Boss # MISSROSS
When I was growing up I want to be Mrs.Diana Ross
I have watched this video many times! I don't want to be partial, but I am so impressed with Raif! He just blows me away with his talent, humor, authenticity....He, and his mom, Rhonda, totally embody the legacy of America's most beloved singer and entertainer, Ms. Diana Ross! It's such a beautiful family overall. I can't even begin to imagine their pride for belonging to her legacy as a family. The love I began to feel for Diana Ross, when I was just a teenager, has only grown through the years, right along with those millions of other fans who grew up singing those Supremes songs right along with her.
that's a real diva right there.... with the biggest heart and soul... even the biggest stars or mega stars like madonna, cyndi, tina etc must kneel down to the real and only queen diana ross.
The Boss forever. True Icon. No one has come along to replace this type of performer.
DIANA ROSS, SHE IS AN UNFFORGETABLE WOMAN, ONE OF A KIND, SHE LEAVE HER HEART IN HEAVEN.
she still got it, Queen! ❤❤🌟
Breathtaking 😍 I'm crying.
Diana Ross,, a.k.a. "The Boss". One of my favorite female vocalists in the history of recorded music. A trailblazer for all women. Diana Ross set the standard for class, beauty, and elegance starting from her days with The Supremes, my favorite girl group of All-Time. This honor was well-deserved. I've always been enamored by Ms. Ross, a beautiful woman with a golden and signature voice to match. She is a staple in American history, not only as the lead singer of The Supremes and as a solo artist, but as a human being in general.
The Lady..The Music...The Magic..
The Memories...that's...Ms.Ross!
Ms Ross still got it!!! She looks great!
Diana Ross is the fiercest ever! The best to ever do it!
Wow! Bless you Diana, this made me happy cry!!
I realised it a couple of weeks ago & the proof is in the pudding.
For years I had the feeling that Diana Ross didn’t get enough recognition or appreciation. The queen of Motown. The queen of Motown. The queen of Motown. New albums didn’t do much she remained an icon she kept performing but it wasn’t as successful as I hoped it for her to be (or for myself) because I am a huge fan but I listened to her and well since family always came first; if your career is not what it was… Concentrate on your children. Who am I? However that feeling of sort of being alone in my admiration persisted and it hurt. Also the Ross’ haters here… You don’t have to like her, her voice or the way she paved her way but she did accomplish a lot more then most. Trailblazer. So give her some respect.
Then finally the Grammy came and she said on stage something to the extend of: Legacy? This is my legacy pointing at her children and I thought; ‘Yeah I know, but… It just didn’t register...
What good news! This morning reading that she received the AMA Lifetime Achievement Award! A tad late but better late then never.
The queen of Motown…. The queen of Motown… The queen of Motown…?
People! There were the Bilderberg's, the Rockefeller’s, the Kennedy’s and now there are the Ross’s. Hats off! And thank you SO much!!!
Wow so amazing to see Barry Gordy there supporting there. Love seeing them both healthy happy!
This is a true artist.. Dianna Ross never gets old. The voice she have makes me remember mu childhood back in the Philippines my mom loves dianna ross so much. Congratulations Diana Ross and THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN TO US IN THE PHILIPPINES. A true LEGEND AND ICON.
Don’t let the glamour fool you. She means it when she says she loves you. May God bless you also Diana for the love you showed Wintley Phipps. The way you supported the man of God by your wonderful renditions of his songs. I treasure my 45 version of Tell Me Again!
This is so beautiful. Love her grandchildren up there with her 💞 I just had my first.
Multi-talented and a voice so beautiful.* A great lady!
Timeless, talented & gorgeous. 😍 My love for you is infinite, Ms Ross.
Conradulation's Diana. Well Deserved.Long Overdue!. Love you💕💋
Such a legend! A truly iconic person for so many to look up to and aspire to be like. Love to see her receive this recognition.
See, you CAN sing live! It's talent, not a computer.
