Just about the only ones who listen to her and know the scoop because we lived thru it with her are us older queens.Īnd by the way, I just remembered that YOU have been on Queerty since it started just like me and ol’ Plays Well With Others, wherever the hell he is these days of late. She went to RCA and it didn’t take long for RCA to see the gross miscalculation of her fading popularity. She wanted Motown to pay her twenty million dollars and they told her flat out she was NOT going to sell twenty million records. Bob dear, even though she and Barry Gordy had a daughter together (it slipped out of her mouth the day she went on Oprah to announce that she was saying to hell with Wilson and Birdsong she was going to do a solo tour as The Supremes and it flopped because of EXTREMELY poor ticket sales) they were never married.
