Diana Ross' Glastonbury set defended by fans after online criticism

Music fans have leapt to the defence of Diana Ross after the legendary singer was criticised online for her performance at Glastonbury.

Following in the footsteps of other icons like Kylie Minogue, Lionel Richie and Dolly Parton, ex Supremes star Diana filled the Legends slot on the Pyramid Stage on Sunday afternoon, after her recent Party at the Palace appearance and days before she performs at Durham Riverside ground in Chester-le-Street.

Diana, 78, kicked things off with I'm Coming Out, with her Glastonbury set also including Supremes classics like Baby Love, Stop in the Name of Love and You Can't Hurry Love as well as many of her solo anthems including Chain Reaction, I'm Still Waiting, Upside Down and Ain't No Mountain High Enough. Those watching Diana in action live on BBC could see the crowd lapping up her performance, although there was slightly awkward moment when she asked them to sing along to I'm Still Waiting and many of them didn't Know the words.
