Solange Knowles Says Her Style Is 'Inspired by Diana Ross'


Solange Knowles is known for her contrasting career moves from her bigger (literally) sister Beyonce. While both are in music, Bey is an international superstar while Solange is more preferred to doing deejaying and small-town gigs (don't get it twisted, Solange makes very good money from DJ-ing and Dereon).

One inspiring thing from Solange is that she says her style, like the one above, is inspired by Diana Ross (but doesn't she kind of look like TRACEE ELLIS ROSS?) See what else she had to say about Diana:

Diana is the quite obvious one. If you look at pictures of her in the ’60s, ’70s, through the ’80s, she embodied everything about that era in such a timeless way. Her hair is a whole other conversation! And seeing photos of my mother from the ’60s and ’70s, she was a total rebel with her style. She had extremely fine hair and washed it with detergent to coarsen it up and had this amazing Afro.

Diana Ross Afraid Daughter May Marry a Polygamist


*Tracee Ellis Ross has a new man, but her mama ain’t to proud if you are to believe the National Enquirer. You see, the actress has hooked up with Akon’s little brother, Bu Thiam.


“Diana is livid that Tracee is getting so serious with Bu,” a source close to Diana revealed. “Diana wants the best for all her children, and marrying into a family that practices polygamy was never in the cards for her kids.”





















Akon is a proud polygamist who has three wives of his own. Daddy has four. The Senegalese family comes from a tradition where marrying multiple women is common.

Diana Ross is said to be none too pleased about her daughter Tracee Ellis Ross dating Akon's little brother Def Jam VP Abu 'Bu' Thiam...

Traccee and Bu have been quietly dating ever since Tracee moved to Atlanta to film her new scripted show for BET, 'Read Between the Lines' with Malcolm Jamal Warner [click here if you missed that].

Apparently Diana is concerned about Tracee ending up in a harem since Bu's brother Akon likes to brag about being a polygamist and how the custom is accepted in Senegal.

Tracee and Bu have been laughing off Diana's concerns and Tracee has assured her mom that she has no plans for marriage and that if she does marry Bu she will be his only wife
