i so miss those days when Patti used to wear/style her hair like hats. ONLY PATTI can pull something like that off. I also love(d) her background singers from the 80's. those background (female) singers back then were no joke. don't get me wrong, there are some new generation background (female) singers today that are off the hook as well. but, for some reason, the background (female) singers from my era just did something to me. I just love really good backround singers, especially women background singers.
Fanixen989 lol!!! yes, it is her hair. when i started getting into Patti LaBelle when i was younger, i didn't think that was her hair either. don't get me wrong, she would wear weaves/wigs here and there. but, for the most parts, when she used to wear "hat like" hair-do's, you can tell it's her hair. you can tell that back in the 80's to early 90's, that's one of Patti's signature styles.....was her hair. That woman was (and still is, to a point) very trendy back in those days. She knows how to wear some outfits too.
Fanixen989 lol!!! you could/would never tell it's her hair if you really don't pay attention. even to this day, i still get fascinated with her 80's to 90's hair styles. I so miss those days.
I was following the arrangement just fine, and anticipated the bridge just like she did. She’s a living miracle but pretending she guessed when to sing the bridge is a bit of an over-exaggeration, the keys were minor, the bridge started, she sang. No big deal.
I agree. Thats what makes Patti so GREAT! There is NONE like her. & it'll probably take her death for the mainstream Media to even acknowledge her as One of Music industries GREATEST Originals. Even for those who dont Like or understand her style of performance, must say that PATTI LABELLE is most definitely an ORIGINAL! There Will never be anyone who comes close. Fantasia? Yes, but she doesnt have Patti's Vocal Range or versatility. Go FANTASIA! love her too.
Well we see why Dionne's voice is shot to hell now while Gladys and Patti's voices are still great. I don't understand why people that make a living singing smoke cigarettes
Sweeheart, they get addicted. My grandmother died of cancer with a cigarette in her hand. I asked why she wouldn't quit, she said she couldn't. She started smoking when she was nine. Why do people eat so much they weigh almost 1,000 pounds? They can't stop eating.
Patty, blessed to catch ya a decade ago in fort Myers FL. This man will never forget the blessings you shared in honoring your brother. Warmest regards to you and yours
@KiddVid This was 1985. That is 2011. She sisn't beat the man, the goons did. I think the proper place to talk about this incident is on the security video.
I think we have to take it in the context that Dionne was Whitney's cousin so...The biggest problem is when people try to emulate the behavior of celebrities when they should have their own minds.
@kdrayf01 Patti LaBelle doesn't have anything to do with this video? I think she does. And I think what she's doing to an innocent man has cost her a lot of fans, will cost her even more if she doesn't make it right. She's abusing her fame and political connections to destroy an innocent man, just because she can. That should cost her more than it costs her victim.
You have to be kidding me. Apparently you did not get the full story. He was drunk which is why she has a suit against him. It was not her by the way it was her bodyguards. If you look at the FULL tape you will see it was the cadet not her entourage who started the situation. She got the blame because of who she is and because it was her crew but thank god for cameras which show what really transpired. She never tried to kill someone's career, however she was and is trying to protect and clear her reputation which she should do. You would do the same thing if you were innocent but being accused of something.
i'd have to disagree beyonce'- diana ross and has touches of tina with her radical dancing but she isnt as rock a tina j.hud-aretha fantasia-patti....look up uncf 2009....fantasia is patti labelle's younger version

Dionne is rocking that haircut!
In 1986 no one really cared about smoking though did they its only now we go on about it all the time!!

@obeefobee Wow you are soooooooo right.. never noticed that and I've seen it a million times. :-)
I'm lovin the background singers too! anybody know who they are?
U should be able to Google the year and the performance to find out .
they are all talking at once. :)
She should know that 2nd hand smoke kills then!
Patti Is a funny lady...lol
@Mdizzlefoshow We saw the evidence of her smoking on the Celebrity Apprentice last year. She tried to sing.
Patti is REALLY funny...lol

@kdrayf01 1986
How did she get her hair like that?
It's a hat, not her hair.
@KiddVid That doesn't have anything to do with this video
do dionne really smoke..omg
Her hair lol
Not for nothing At age 45 she was worried about being a 145 pounds in 1985 fast forward to 2022 we got lizzo Just saying.......

This sister needs a new attitude. She's destroying an honorable West Point cadet, just because she can. That ain't right.

i'd have to disagree
beyonce'- diana ross and has touches of tina with her radical dancing but she isnt as rock a tina
j.hud-aretha
