Girlfriends

Diana Ross and Mary Wilson (with Florence Ballard reflected in mirror) backstage at The T.A.M.I. Show, 1964

Female impersonators, 1964

In both instances, we're fairly certain someone got bitch-slapped shortly after the shutter clicked.

  2. Yeah, but what we didn't see is that when Di was done with Mary's makeup, she looked like a Picasso! :-P

  3. The Diana/Mary pic reminds me that when Jennifer Hudson wore a hideous short silver lam'e jacket to the Oscars(the year that she won) people joked that Beyonce suggested that she wear it. The drag queen pic is a hoot, the entire documentary,"Paris Is Burning" is on Youtube and it too is a hoot!
