Not only is Diana Ross the ultimate fashion icon — inspiring daughter Tracee Ellis Ross, natch — the legendary singer made it her mission to teach her kids the importance of humility. "She used to say things like, 'Oh no, no, no, I worked for all of this,' " the black-ish actress told Essence. " 'This is mine and I'm not leaving any of it to you,' " she recalled. " 'I'm going to spend it, so you'd better get a job, little girl.' " Bow. Down.

Truth: we live for Reese Witherspoon's mom Betty Reese's commentary on her daughter's show, Big Little Lies.

Tonight was a good one," replied Witherspoon, to which Betty quipped: "Lots of sex yes."
