R&B (and girl-group) legend and ur-diva Diana Ross returns to a familiar Orlando stage this week. Mz. Ross hasn\u2019t been in town since she took part in 2023\u2019s Residency Festival at the Dr. Phillips Center, but she\u2019s back at the Phil this week to make up for lost time on her Diana in Motion tour. <\/p>\n

The 81-year-old singer is in fine form on this latest tour, giving audiences the hits \u2014 including disco smash \u201cUpside Down,\u201d as heard latterly on Stranger Things \u2014 and incredible stagewear. (Spoiler: You will hear \u201cLove Hangover\u201d \u2026 and a medley of Supremes hits.)\u00a0<\/p>\n
