Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams Reunite on 'Oprah' (VIDEO)

by Nick Zaino, posted Feb 25th 2011 6:30PM

Billy Dee Williams and Diana Ross on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show'Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams were a popular tandem in theaters with the hits 'Mahogany' (1975) and 'Lady Sings the Blues' (1972). Three decades since audiences saw last them together, Oprah Winfrey put them together again today on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' (weekdays, syndicated).

Winfrey already had Ross on the show and, she said, in the spirit of Winfrey's final-season reunions, she brought Williams out onstage. The three exchanged warm embraces once Williams entered.

"I take full responsibility because my staff said to me, 'Di -- Miss Ross -- she does not want any surprises,'" said Winfrey. Thankfully, it seemed to turn out well. You never want to surprise a diva.

Diana Ross is beautiful and has a beautiful family Down to earth and just seemed to love her family especially that little grandson of hers. No airs put on, Diana is like someone that would be your next door neighbor. She is a funny and happy person also a good parent.

Sometimes Opra's name is used too often but since she does
good things, I would rather hear her name repeatedly than some
of the spoiled " adult children " that the news people harp on,[no pun
intended] !

Haven't seen either one of them in years. Diana Ross looks great @ 66 while Billy Dee's put on a few & still looks good, he doesn't look like he's ready to race Brian Piccolo anytime soon!

Oprah, just shut up and go away. Many of us are sick of you (and your politics)!

Excellent/Uplifting show! Great to see the ever-luminous Diana Ross & her wonderful family. Hopefully, the OWN Network is planning an episode of their Master Class series with Miss Ross, Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson & Stevie Wonder. Again - really special Diana/Oprah show. First-rate interview & performances!
