The Dreams in "Dream Girls" are actually a fictional group. Although the writers of the movie claim that they are not based on one group, their rise to fame as well as the group dynamic parallels that of the Supremes, later known as Diana Ross and the Supremes.

1) "A period piece set in the 1960s and 1970s with a primarily African-American cast, Dreamgirls is adapted from the 1981 Broadway musical of the same name. The musical was based on the history and evolution of American R&B music during the eras of doo-wop, soul, the Motown Sound, funk, and disco. In addition, the stage musical contains several allusions to the lives and careers of Motown Records act The Supremes, a connection the film version expands upon."
