Patti LaBelle

Patti LaBelle truly is a Renaissance Woman – a peerless singer and songwriter, accomplished actress, winner of multiple awards and honors, savvy businesswoman, retail-maven, best-selling author, and still a devoted wife and mother. Plus, somehow she found the time to make more than fifty amazing albums.
Patti LaBelle's star, which first rose in the 1960s, shines ever brightly today. The 1993 album, "Patti LaBelle LIVE!" yielded a 1994 Grammy nomination (her eighth) for the single "All Right Now."
The 1994 excitement came on the heels of a triumphant 1993. Patti won an American Music Award for Favorite R&B Female Artist, which now stands alongside her Grammy Award for her hit album, "Burnin'." She joined Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin and a host of other luminaries in a 40th birthday salute to Oprah Winfrey, brought down the house in a televised Christmas concert performed for President and Mrs. Clinton in Washington and got her star on the fabled Hollywood Boulevard "Walk of Fame".
LaBelle's first breakout hit was the album "Nightbirds," which sent Patti and her group soaring into the superstar stratosphere, largely on the strength of "Lady Marmalade" ("Voulez-Vous Couchez Avec Moi Ce Soir?").
Extensive tours and two more popular albums, "Phoenix" and "Chameleon," followed – but the burden of being musical trailblazers eventually became too great. "Rocked and rolled out," as Patti describes it, the group disbanded on good terms in 1976.
In the early '80s, mega-hit popularity on the musical charts inexplicably eluded her. Superstardom anointed her again, however, with two hits from the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack: "New Attitude" and "Stir It Up."
Those hits were followed by her 1985 debut album for MCA Records, "Winner In You," which went platinum thanks to sizzlers like "On My Own" (with Michael McDonald), "Oh, People," "Kiss Away the Pain" and "Something Special." She hushed, then whipped the crowd into a frenzy at Live Aid; left the audience speechless on NBC-TV's Emmy-winning "Motown Salutes the Apollo"; ; starred in her own NBC TV special (with guests Bill Cosby, CyndiLauper and Luther Vandross); criss-crossed the country on several national tours; knocked 'em dead in Europe and Japan; made two more movies, Unnatural Causes nd Sing (with Lorraine Bracco and Louise Lasser). In the late '80s and early '90s, a triumphant Patti continued to release chart-topping albums, including "Be Yourself" and "This Christmas." As a musical artist, Patti LaBelle remains unrivaled and unstoppable.
