A MEMORABLE TRIBUTE

Diana’s 9-year-old grandson, Raif Henok Emmanuel Kendrick, whose mother is the singer’s eldest daughter Rhonda Suzanne Silberstein, charmed the crowd when he introduced his grandmother at the beginning of the tribute. He appeared after the airing of a video clip about the legend narrated by Alicia Keys.

Diana emerged on stage flaming in a red gown before belting out two of her greatest hits from her 24-album career, “Best Years of My Life” and “Reach Out and Touch (Somebody’s Hand). At one point, Jaden Smith joined her in singing the latter from the audience making his mother, Jada Pinkett-Smith very proud. She even shared a clip of her son’s “moment with an Icon Liv’n.”
