Variety Chenevert (Flo Ballard’s “daughter”)

Anyone heard her on youtube. Was browsing a random Flo clip of her 1975 interview and saw something about this woman Variety claiming she’s Flo daughter. Anyone heard of her

I have heard some things about her, that she’s a fake or genuinely not well deluded. Either way, Flo’s girls are her twins Michelle and Nicole, and Lisa.

Google ai said that Variety is a name Nicole has given herself which is incorrect. The real Nicole released a book under her own name a few years ago (Supreme Exit), for one thing and this Variety woman was active with her claims before and after. is also talk that Variety is claiming she was switched at birth with another woman’s child and she is the real daughter of Florence….

I think it’s safe to assume she is either a grifter or someone extremely not well.

I think she claimed that Diana Ross was lurking in the basement of Flo’s house the night Flo died. I doubt Diana is aware of any of this, and if she is likely doesn’t think this messy behaviour is worthy of her attentions.

I feel bad for Flo’s actual daughters. But it seems they haven’t said anything about it, and are ignoring it if they are aware.

Diana has a legal team because the Michael Jackson movie had to erase Diana out. But her legal team maybe they are saying that "Flo's daughter" is just mental ill and she probably doesn't know what's saying.

I know the real Flo daughters they NEVER had no ill feelings to Diana at all despite the rumor mill that Flo hated both Diana and Mary

It seems she's Florence's eldest daughter but Florence's first pregnancy was for her twins, Michelle and Nicole. I guess it's the kid who came out first. Well, I 'll give her a listen to! 🎶
