“The Bodyguard” film which raised a big noise in the 90s is considered to be the golden page of the film career of Whitney Huston and Kevin Costner. Few know that the film scenario was written still in the 70s and was intended for Diana Ross and Steve McQueen. The singer did not play the starry role; instead she won 2 stars on her glorious way in Hollywood – the one in the staff of the Supremes well-known in the 60s, and the other for her solo career.
Together with her friends Diana created a singing group called The Primes, then renamed it The Supremes, recorded several songs, which were not successful until the producer decided to present Diana in the role of a soloist. Their very first single became a hit. Everyone understood this was thanks to Diana. In 1970 the singer decided to leave the band. She attracted attention by the song “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” and immediately occupied the Billboard’s first place, as well as was nominated for a Grammy Award as the best woman performer.
Diana won an Oscar statuette later. “Endless Love” song performed with Lionel Richie brought her a big success. Diana became the first singer whose hits occupied the first position on the Billboard chart for 6 times, and she became the first singer, with whom producers signed a contract of $ 20 million.
