Diana Ross Tells the Michael Jackon Critics to “Stop in the Name of Love” The legendary Diana Ross is the latest celebrity to defend Michael Jackson, amid the fall-out from The Leaving Netherland documentary. Ms. Ross tweeted her support Saturday night saying “’I believe and trust that Michael Jackson was and is A magnificent incredible force to me and to many others. STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE’ The two had been friends for almost 40 years. Ross is credited with discovering the Jackson 5 in the 1970s. Jackson even named Ross has the guardian of his children if something were to happen to his mother, Katherine Jackson. Do you think Diana Ross comments will spark backlash?
