Claudette Robinson
Claudette Robinson is an original member of Motown’s first group, The Miracles, and former wife of R&B crooner Smokey Robinson. Smokey Robinson originally wrote the number-one Motown single "My Girl" in dedication to Claudette, a song performed most notably by The Temptations. Berry Gordy gave Claudette Robinson the official title of "First Lady of Motown", as noted in his autobiography, since, as a member of The Miracles, she was the first female artist ever signed to a Motown-affiliated record label, Tamla.
