Royal Caribbean has confirmed that singer Diana Ross will be the official godmother of Star of the Seas when the revolutionary Icon Class ship debuts in August 2025. With her music inspiring generations of families, Diana Ross will take the stage to welcome the ship at Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida, after visiting the renowned Perfect Day at CocoCay in the Bahamas.
As godmother, Diana Ross will join a long maritime tradition of bestowing protection upon the ship, its crew members, and the millions of people who, over the years, will create unforgettable memories on the best family vacations. To celebrate the launch of Star, Diana Ross will participate in an iconic naming ceremony at the ship's AquaTheater, located in the transformative AquaDome neighborhood, surrounded by panoramic ocean views.
“I am truly honored to join the Royal Caribbean family,” said Diana Ross. “After spending years creating beautiful music and memories, and bringing people together from all over the world, this feels like the perfect continuation of my journey as godmother of Star of the Seas.”
The celebration will set the tone for what's to come at Star, welcoming families and vacationers of all ages to enjoy record-breaking Icon Class experiences. Star combines the best of beach retreats, resort getaways, and theme park adventures across eight neighborhoods that are destinations in themselves, offering the world's greatest family vacations. With adrenaline-pumping activities at the Category 6 water park, unparalleled ways to relax at seven pools, amazing entertainment, including the cult classic film-turned-hit-musical "Back to the Future: The Musical," and more than 40 dining and drinking options, such as the Lincoln Park Supper Club and much more, Star is where every type of family and vacationer can create memories together and on their own without compromise.
“We are thrilled to have Diana Ross join us for the debut of Star of the Seas, the next bold vacation on our revolutionary Icon Class designed to encompass the very best a vacation experience can offer,” said Michael Bayley, president and CEO of Royal Caribbean. “We look forward to welcoming Ms. Ross, our guests, and the crew to celebrate Star this August.”
The Star will offer 7-night vacations to the most sought-after destinations in the Eastern and Western Caribbean, including the renowned Perfect Day at CocoCay in the Bahamas.
