All of that changed when "Back in My Arms Again" hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on June 12, 1965, making The Supremes the first group in history to score five consecutive chart-toppers.
The turning point came when Motown boss Berry Gordy paired the trio with his premier songwriting team, Holland-Dozier-Holland, and Diana Ross as lead singer, with Wilson and Ballard as her backing.
That run unfolded over just 10 months. "Where Did Our Love Go" reached No. 1 on August 16, 1964. "Baby Love" followed, topping the charts from late October through November. "Come See About Me" claimed the No. 1 spot for non-consecutive weeks in December 1964 and January 1965. "Stop! In the Name of Love" kept the streak alive in late March and early April 1965.
The streak eventually ended when "Nothing but Heartaches" fell short of the top 10 — but the group bounced right back with "I Hear a Symphony" at No. 1.
"Love Child" brought them back to No. 1 in 1968, and "Someday We'll Be Together" in December 1969 gave the group their 12th and final No. 1.
"She was more or less pushed out. But that's what happens when a person is up front and people are telling the background singers that she's stealing the show."
