Music icon, Diana Ross loses her father



Soul legend Diana Ross has become the latest celebrity to lose a parent in a month of big-name family tragedies. Her father has died in Detroit, Michigan.

Fred Ross, 87, passed away on Tuesday, just before his daughter performed a sold-out show in Los Angeles.

The singer ended the show by telling fans of her loss. She then dedicated the title song on her new CD 'I Love You' to her late father.

Ross flew to Detroit hours later to mourn with her brother Chico.

As WENN went to press, there were no further details about the cause of death.

Ross' family tragedy comes after rapper Kanye West, Marie Osmond, Jane Seymour, lifestyle queen Martha Stewart and Jonathan Rhys Meyers all lost parents in recent weeks.
