Diana Ross Receives Lifetime Achievement Award at 2017 AMAs: ‘This Is All About Love’
Just hours before hitting the main stage, Diana Ross was surrounded by her loved ones on the 2017 American Music Awards red carpet (November 19).
After an illuminating showcase of her greatest hits, during which Ross was joined by her adorable grandchildren for the cutest boogie ever, the "I'm Coming Out" superstar was met with the highest honor of the evening with the American Music Award for Lifetime Achievement, which recognized the legend's incomparable artistic contributions and longevity in the industry.
"This is all about love," said the living icon, who shared the spotlight with her children and grandkids last night. "This says it all. This is my family and I'm sending love out there to all of you — each and every one of you."
Listen to Ross' acceptance speech in full, above.
