Singer Diana Ross is well known for her
outlandish couture creations, and her appearance at U.S President Obama's
annual TNT Christmas Special in Washington DC was no exception.
Veteran singer Diana, 68, wore a stunning
white ballgown to sing at the concert, and she looked perfect enough to pop on
top of the giant Christmas Tree on stage.
Diana's white dress took up plenty of room
onstage, and the President appeared to have some difficulty getting near her as
she threw open her arms for a hug.
Her appearance came as she recovered from
breaking her ankle at a party thrown by Naomi Campbell in early November. Still recovering from her injury, the
veteran singer dressed up in a long royal blue gown complete with oversized
gold pendant and earrings for the festive show.
She later changed outfit to appear onstage
with the President, his wife Michelle and their daughters Malia and Sasha. Sporting the festive monochrome gown with
silver embroidery, the star performed a duet with actress and singer Megan
Hilty. And her floor length gowns successfully hid
any sign of a plaster cast on her ankle.
The 68-year-old proved she is as good as
her word - after previously reassuring fans she would be at the celebration. Her spokesman told Mail Online earlier this
month: 'Ms Ross accidentally slipped and broke her ankle at the end of a show
in India in November. She is fine and has been recovering. She
will be performing next week for the President in Washington DC.'
Apparently Ross opened the show with a
medley of Sleigh Ride, Jingle Bells and The Most Wonderful Time of the Year,
then closed with the show with the rest of the cast with Amazing Grace.
The event will be shown on TNT on December 21st!

FAB...looking forward to watching, always a tradition in our household. :)
And doesn't she look fab? That dress!
Maybe she was hiding a couple of hefty assistants under that skirt and castors to move her around? Jx
