Diana Ross shocked a fan on Saturday night at the InterContinental Miami MAKE-A-WISH Ball when she stopped mid-performance and snatched the attendee’s phone because it was distracting her.
An insider at the ball told FOX411: “[She said] <<Darling, I can’t see with that flash>>.”

Diana Ross, 70, then quickly turned off the phone’s camera flash setting and returned it to the stunned audience member. She then resumed performing her classic dance hits.
Nine hundred guests paid $1,000-per-plate for the exclusive dinner. The money was used to support Make-A-Wish Southern Florida and attendees included some famous faces like director Brett Ratner and Scottie Pippen.

Diana Ross looked a far cry from her usual self as she headed out without a scrap of make-up and loose fitting casual clothes last week.
Diana Ross, 69, was almost unrecognizable without her usual bright lipstick, heavy eye-liner and glittery stage outfits.

The rare bare-faced outing was for a casual day of errands in Malibu, California.
Diana Ross sported a rather unflattering baggy blue tracksuit, beige Ugg boots and black bag.
Once something of a sex symbol when she found fame with The Supremes in the 1960s Diana Ross was clearly content to stroll to the grocery in her loose-fitting getup.
Diana Ross almost always looks immaculate and glamorous and is one of the few recording artists to have two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
But, the soul singer looked a million miles away from the multi-award winning artist that wowed the public during a 40-year career.
Diana Ross, 68, was dressed down as she headed to her local pharmacy for some supplies on Saturday afternoon, in Beverly Hills, California.
She stepped out make-up free while shopping at CVS Pharmacy and had tried to keep a low profile during the trip.
There was no sign of her trademark long gowns as she sported a pair of baggy purple jogging bottoms and some trainers.
The diva also wore a sandy yellow hoody and hid her eyes behind a pair of sunglasses as she ventured out with an au-naturel style.

Although she had no make-up on, the grandmother-of-two still looked pretty as she smiled while checking her shopping receipt.
Diana Ross’s wild mane of hair was free flowing and untouched as she made her way back to her car no doubt hoping nobody recognized her.
She may have to get out her glad rags soon enough after it was announced a new musical based on her and Motown would be hitting Broadway.
Motown: the Musical will be based on a book written by Berry Gordy, the owner of the iconic record label.
It will cover his youth, inspiration and will detail his long effort to get the label off the ground.
Kim Kardashian took to Twitter yesterday to post an image of herself as none other than Diana Ross.
Kim Kardashian, 31, who has previously emulated Sophia Loren and Marilyn Monroe, bared little resemblance to the legendary singer.
But perhaps photographer Hype Williams, who also shot the music video for Kim Kardashian’s 2011 chart flop Jam (Turn It Up), has something different in mind from the raw images his model posted on Twitter today.
Still, taking to the micro-blogging website, Kim Kardashian seemed ecstatic with the results, writing: “Love this hair!!!”

The style certainly made a statement, Kim Kardashian’s curls teased several inches from either side of her face.
The make-up team accentuated her features with inches of product, bronzing her glossy complexion and topping it with rosy circles of rouge, slashes of pastel pink lipstick and heavy blue eyeshadow.
Her eyelashes appeared longer than their usual extreme length, spidering around her brown eyes, which were heavily lined in black.
Hoop earrings, studded thigh high boots and a black blazer completed the styling.
Elaborating on her Celebuzz blog, Kim Kardashian wrote: “[W]e went for a fun, crazy look, channeling Diana Ross. Definitely a new look for me.”
It was not known at press time where the final images would be featured.
The reality star meanwhile released the snaps in tandem with a shot by Nick Knight which showed the star looking much more like herself.
The black-and-white image, shot for V magazine, features the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star sweeping back her mane to reveal chiseled cheeks and her trademark pout.
Clearly proud of the shot she promoted on Twitter, she thanked the fashion photographer.
“LOVE U NICK KNIGHT!” Kim Kardashian wrote, telling fans she “can’t wait” for them to see the full editorial.
