Diana Ross will take to the stage at Durham Riverside ground on Wednesday evening as her Glastonbury set continues to be a big talking point amongst music fans.
Having performed at the Platinum Party at the Palace and arenas in the likes of Manchester, Leeds and London over the last few weeks, music legend Diana graced the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury on Sunday, taking the famous Legends slot previously occupied by the likes of Lionel Richie and Kylie Minogue.
Diana's setlist included solo classics like Chain Reaction and Upside Down as well as Supremes hits like Baby Love and You Can't Hurry Love, but the undeniable hits-filled performance wasn't enough to satisfy some viewers, who complained that Diana's vocals 'didn't cut it, although plenty of fans argued that she more than lived up to her legend status.
