This is the moment Diana Ross opened her Durham show with her iconic hit I'm Coming Out.
The legendary Motown singer took to the stage at the Emirates Riverside Stadium in Chester-le-Street on Wednesday night, much to the delight of the thousands of fans eagerly waiting. The 78-year-old superstar made an energetic entrance in a red checked outfit and signature big hair.
The music icon had been criticised for her recent performances including her headline set at Glastonbury at the weekend. However, Diana's fans leapt to her defence.

Having been accused of miming at the Queen's Jubilee concert, some viewers criticised Diana's live vocal, with one taking to Twitter to post: "Oh dear, Diana Ross is hitting a few bum notes isn’t she?" Another tweeted: "Diana Ross should have packed it in years ago. Her voice is long gone."
But fans spoke up in her favour, with one fan responding: "How anyone can hate on Diana Ross is beyond me. She’s 78 and the epitome of a LEGEND more than worthy of her slot at #Glastonbury."
Diana is performing at the Riverside Stadium as part of her 2022 Thank You tour.
