Diana Ross wowed the crowds as she performed at the Platinum Party at the Palace this evening.

The legendary singer made her first appearance in the UK for 15 years, as she impressed with performances of her biggest songs including Chain Reaction and Thank You to crowds who had gathered outside Buckingham Palace.
