Royal Caribbean has announced musical icon Diana Ross as the official godmother of Star of the Seas when the Icon Class ship debuts August 2025. With her music inspiring generations of families, Ross will take the stage to welcome the newest family vacation sailing from Port Canaveral (Orlando), FL in August.
As godmother, Ross will join a longstanding maritime tradition of bestowing safekeeping onto the ship, its crew and the millions who will make memories on family vacations for years to come. To celebrate the unveiling of Star of the Seas, Ross will take part in a naming ceremony in the ship’s AquaTheater, located in the AquaDome neighborhood surrounded by wraparound ocean views. Fans can stay tuned to learn more on how they can join the celebration on Royal Caribbean’s Instagram page.
“I am truly honored to join the Royal Caribbean family,” said Ross. “Having spent years of creating beautiful music and memories and bringing people together from all over the world, this feels like a perfect continuation of my journey as godmother of Star of the Seas.”
Star of the Seas will offer seven-night vacations to the most sought-after destinations in the Eastern and Western Caribbean, including the vacation brand’s top-rated Perfect Day at CocoCay in the Bahamas. Royal Caribbean has more standout experiences in store across its expanding lineup of destinations including Royal Beach Club Paradise Island, debuting in December 2025; Royal Beach Club Cozumel, debuting in 2026; and Perfect Day Mexico, slated to debut in fall 2027.
