  • 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.

      Agree, definitely MORE than friends. They were both so attracted to each other. Think she would be the one not to be open about their intimacy because of her image. He otherwise would blurt it out to the world if she'd let him. Knew a few people like that, where it was so obvious there's more than friendship going on, but they try to pretend there isn't.

      Yeah the amount of times he mentioned how much he loved Diana in his book, Moonwalk really shows.
      “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.”

How she still continued her firm grip on his life even if he dated other women. Btw, on Neverland he had a separate room dedicated to her. It was filled with huge photos of her and various other stuff.

It challenges, changes you and breaks your heart. But at the same time you can't see your life without them. That is most likely why even after Lisa and him divorced he tried to come back to her for 4 years. That is true love. But an addict can't love well. But his initial infatuation with Diana well Not every attraction is love.

      He should've ended up marrying her instead of Lisa or Debbie. ❤️ His life would've been alot more wholesome.

      Marrying? No, Diana and Michael had something more than a marriage license. True love....

      You couldn't even spell his name right, much less hear that he spoke gently like his mother.

    I love her, she´s mesmerising... the way she talks and performs... A FORCE OF NATURE; I understand if MJ was obsessed with her, it makes so much sense... I love Michael and Diana, I wish we still had such great performers in the mainstream.
