Mahogany is a 1975 feature film, directed by Berry Gordy, produced by Motown Productions and released to theaters by Paramount Pictures. It stars Diana Ross as a poor African-American woman who rises to become a popular fashion designer in Paris.

The film was almost uniformly panned by critics upon its release, although audience attendance was acceptable. The film includes a Ross-sung theme song, “Theme from Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To),” which became a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976. It held the number-one spot for one week (January 17–January 24 1976), replacing “I Write the Songs” by Barry Manilow and replaced by “Love Rollercoaster” by the Ohio Players. “Theme from Mahogany,” written by Michael Masser & Gerald Goffin and produced by Masser, was the best-reviewed element of Mahogany. The song was later covered by Mariah Carey in 1998, and included as a bonus track on her #1’s greatest hits album.
