As one of the most revered names in music history, Diana Ross has collected many Gold and Platinum plaques for her classic hits over her six-decade career.

But, many would be surprised to know the iconic diva has never won a GRAMMY in the traditional sense.  In fact, she was 67-years-old before she’d ever accepted any honor from the Academy – and even then it was the 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award.

In 2023, however, she stands to change this multi-decade narrative.  See how inside.

As revealed by the 2023 GRAMMY nominations (unveiled November 15), Ross is listed in the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album category for her 2021 studio album, ‘Thank You.’

Competing against Kelly Clarkson, Norah Jones, Pentatonix, and Michael Buble for the honor, the nod comes as the 12th overall nomination of Diana’s career and first since 1982 hit ‘Muscles‘ was strong-armed out of the Best R&B Female Vocal Performance trophy in 1983.

If she wins it will be the first time she’s ever collected a GRAMMY in a competitive category, putting an end to a losing streak that began with her inaugural nomination in 1965 as part of The Supremes.

We’ll have to wait until the ceremony airs February 5, 2023 to find out the result.  Until then, click here to see who else was nominated for a golden gramophone.
