FARAH NIEUWBURG AS LEGENDARY ICON DIANA ROSS
Model and dancer Farah Nieuwburg transforms into legendary fashion icon Diana Ross who have shaped culture.
With her the-bigger-the-better hair – No one does glam like Diana Ross. Since debuting with The Supremes in 1959, the charismatic powerwoman whipped through a mesmerising iconic line-up of looks and has established a career as singer. Striking out in the 70’s on her own with her first solo album, Reach Out and Touch (Somebody’s Hand), and number one single “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”, Ross is responsible for some of the 21st all-time bobs from motown to disco. The icon hasn’t stopped unleashing her inner diva releasing the LOVE hits like “I’m Gonna Make You Love Me” and The Supremes’ “Baby Love” to disco stalwarts “Love Hangover” and “Upside Down.” and dancefloor favourite “i’m Coming Out” in 1980.
It takes a long time to get to be a diva, I mean, you gotta work at it.
