Touch Her in the Morning! At Ritzy Spa, Diana Ross Submits to Supreme Spring Cleanse
MORE The Transom
Earlier last month, the singer Diana Ross made one of her regular pilgrimages to Canyon Ranch, the award-winning, 80,000-square-foot spa in Tucson.
“You can’t miss her—she has the huge ’fro,” one of the washed, waxed, plucked, scrubbed, stretched-out, rubbed-up and fiercely dieting guests was overheard remarking to friends. Ms. Ross is not one to scrape her locks back in a ponytail while working out, confirmed a source in the spa, who added that the diva likes the anti-aging treatment, a 50-minute facial that leaves skin “smooth, hydrated and radiant with golden glints,” as it’s described in Canyon Ranch literature.
Ms. Ross goes to “CR” a few times a year to “cleanse her soul,” the source offered, usually buying a 7-to-10-day package, which retails from $12,180 to $16,730 for a single room. The singer is a fiend for yoga and Pilates classes, added the informant, but does not rock-climb. “She’ll sign autographs if you ask. She signed the calendar of workout classes for someone.”
The former Supreme is slightly less relaxed about her placement at dinner. “She has to have this one seat ever single time, very OCD,” said the spy, describing a four-person booth in the corner, to the left as one enters the enormous dining hall. Enjoying the daily fresh organic salad bar along with everyone else, Ms. Ross was said to be particularly enamored of the Brussels sprouts, which are drizzled with delicious homemade dressing.
An elderly couple from the Midwest, meanwhile, became so fixated on Ms. Ross’ routine that after she left they captured the memory with a photo of “her” empty corner table. “It was hysterical,” the source snickered.
A rep for the Motown legend didn’t return a call for comment.
BIG DEAL SHE WANTS TO HAVE DINNER BY HERSELF...SHE IS ENTITLED TO THAT...AFTER ALL SHE IS PAYING THEM A FORTUNE. WHO IS THE WRITER OF THIS STORY...SOUNDS LIKE SOME IDIOT THAT NEEDS TO TAKE A JOURNALIST CLASS AND REPORT SOMETHING OF VALUE. DUMB IDIOT WRITER...GO BACK TO SCHOOL AZZWIPE
Spencer - shame on you! If you must gossip, at least get the name of our fabulous facial right.
As for Diana Ross, "I don't know anything about that," but OH YEAH, BABY, our Brussels sprouts do rock. I'm sending you a box of them.
Love,

This is just outrageous,... HOW DARE SHE!!! Miss Ross has some nerve behaving like this. I just can't believe this establishment would allow her to return, the other patrons should not have to endure such behavior. There must be laws against this. She probably made them get brussel sprouts specially for her.
Well if Diana Ross likes the Brussell sprouts that much! I WOULDN'T want to stand behind her for too long!! No wonder her songs have great WIND!! segments in them!!! lol
It always amuses me to note that the most vile & caustic comments on blogs, etc., featuring a story about Diana Ross always come from haters, which should give you a good idea of what type of headspace they're in.:) When they're that miserable & frustrated, I guess, instead of using that energy to create something in their own lives, they'd rather project it onto someone who doesn't even know (or care) that they exist.
Now, THAT's comedy!:)
Hummmm How queer…

Please keep your day job at McDonald’s or just stay in school. Your “gas humor” is not at all entertaining. With that, I certainly hope you are none other than 11 years old boy although it would not excuse your poor choice of post alas it would thoroughly explain it!

SHE DESERVES ANYTHING SHE WANTS!!!! As a matter of fact, any Black [Motown] artist that had to work their tails off in the 1960s should GET EVERY G.D. THING THEY WANT AND THEN SOME!!! To all the haters in the universe, What have YOU done to appeal to both WHITE and BLACK people in YOUR lifetime through music or YOUR community???? Did you collectively bridge the nations biases, ugly language, and hate through your "talent?" I bet if this were "PAUL MCCARTNEY", I'd suspect that nothing short of "LOVE" would be flowing here. So, let me say this again, MS. Ross deserves ANY G.D. thing SHE pleases in this WORLD whenever, however, and where ever, without question!!!
