Labelle: Live and in Concert
Posted by Bossip Staff
Check out these fly ladies, Patti LaBelle, Sarah Dash, and Nona Hendryx of Labelle performing at the Apollo Theater in NY last night. These ladies are getting up in age, but from the looks of those legs, they aren’t quite ready to throw the towel in on their ‘sexy‘ just yet. Can’t say we blame ‘em either.
Even more up under the hood including Whoopi Goldberg’s lips, SMH…

happy holidays
go patti!
Looks like they still have it! Go ladies!!
Merry Christmas Yall
Beautiful
4 senior citizens… who checks out for them these days we have people like rihanna with real talent… Grandmas go away…
YES! I rather hear the grandma’s any day over the youngins. That’s just me.
Now this is music!
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi. . .Ce soir. ..
These ladies got enough to give these young chicks a run for it.
It’s too late . . . that’s all I have to say
Man people just be givin people props off seniority. Patti be *****in hollering am I the only one who notices. Still much respect to elders tho
Nona, Patti, and Sarah can sing rings around all these throaty, inarticulate, non-dancing immature heffahs!
Nuff respect for staying alive and sane in a business that prefers its artists to be stupid and vain.
Check It!
Go Labelle! So refreshing to hear true singers instead of these manufactured singers out today. And I know I must have misread, real talent like Rihana? wtf?? Rihana couldn’t even carry the shoes of the legends like Gladys Knight, Chaka, or Patti.
patti labelle is still sexy
When menopause reunite. So who sponsored this unnecessary tour? Metamucel?
@ grandma. “we have people like rihanna with real talent”. real talent my *****. i prefer any old school over the new artists coming out today. and i’m young too. none of the new artists have any talent. old school is the best.suck it!
I am sure the ladies still have it.Bless ‘em.
These ladies are fierce!!!! LMAO @ the fools saying Rhianna has real talent! HA!!! She’s alright but she’s no Patti, that sista can sang hollering and all!
I cosign with everyone that said this here is real talent. They’ve lasted in this industry without all the bells and whistles. I think the person that said Rhianna has talent was surely being tongue and cheek. Anyway, I’d rather hear Patti “holler” than the crap that’s put out today. She and Labelle have lasted in the business for decades and can probably still pack out a venue, so holler all you want Patti.
I’m sorry, but there are certain things that should remain dead and buried in the past…LaBelle is one of them.
@ Grandma
You must have fell and bumped your head!!
Love me some Patti Labelle. Patti Labelle is a living legend and girlfriend can saaaaannnnng, she has stage presence and just a phenomenal entertainer. All bow down to the queen!!!
Ms Patti Is Thee Greatest Vocalist Alive
Patty is one of the greatest
I Was There Last Night And When Labelle Came Out The Roar, The Shouts And The Screams Almost Left Me Deaf. I Almost Lost My Own Voice. Unfortunately There Was A Problem With The Sound System And The Apollo Couldn’t Get It Working Again, So These Bad B*****s Came Out With A Choir And Some Drummers And Sang Accappello And The Crowd Went Wild. We Are Lucky That They Are Going To Honor Our Tickets Tonight And They Are Going To Return To Put On Their Show. Oh,I Forgot To Mention That The Apollo Offered Everyone FREE Drinks For Their Inconvenience. What An Experience. Can’t Wait Until Tonight.
@ Joey B
Yes she is!!!
they look like witches!
this website sucks yo
*have fallen*
Patti can still get it
huh?
I luv Patty

ALL THEY NEEDS IS A CAULDRON AND BROOMS TO FLY OFF THE STAGE
For those who think they looked like withces, you are obviously too young to remember the Labelle experience. That’s what they do and the audience loved it. I went back again last night and these bad b*****s tore the Apollo up. Patti was suffering from low blood sugar and at times had to sit down but she still sang her heart out. Once her blood sugar came back up she said “I”m ready now” and they went to work. I was proud to witness this reunion and the audience gave them a standing ovation after every song. I can’t think of another group that could have pulled that off and Labelle is 64, 64 and 63 years old and they still got it.
Correction- I meant to say “witches”
Ill give patti the business
@ Larry of Arabia. You are funny. Don’t hate too hard.They need to cover up those ugly legs though. Pattie is on point with being on her grind.I have a cook book of hers. She’s been through a lot and still has fire!
If it weren’t for these GRANDMA’s the youngin’s would not have that they have to date. You should show more respect.
Labelle, you are still GREAT.
It is sad when our new generation has little or no respect for L E G E N D S. But that is our mistake they do not know a room with cl***** from a cl*****room. And if they do not know the difference between Alec Baldwin and James Baldwin. Okay somebody did not show them how to cook without a microwave.We all were not born knowing these things. When you learn then you can crtique. So first of all know the difference between a Entertainer. a Singer and an Artist.
A: entertainers
Rhianna Janet Josephine Baker
They are not really singers per se but give a good show. Usually need additional dancers smoke and mirrors
B: singers
comes in categories that can also blend from amazing entertainers and Amazing vocals not really needing extra b.s. to perform or look awesome in the studio or on stage they can carry with their voice if need be
Toni Braxton Fantasia Whitney Patti
C: artist
Have amazing abilities usually can play an instrument or write amazing songs and can really sing AND entertain
Alicia Keys Chaka Khan Aretha Beyonce Mariah
They all have written good somgs have a range of voice can hit a note and can entertain without b.s
Listen some singers and artist are very amazing in their own right they know their material and can sing any category like Patti Chaka Whitney Mariah Beyonce Jennifer Hudson their voices blow you away they do not need extra echo chambers vocoders
layered voices on top of their own to enhance like Janet Rhianna Madonna who need background people in the studio and on stage and usually may have only one song that doesn’t and that is about it.
Much Love.P.S. I didn’t know the difference between steak and hamburger until I tasted it.
so —
Nana threw a party and
invited three of her
just-shy-of-over-the-hill
girlfriends to help finish
off that scotch left over
from the party — and they
all wanted to show they
still “had it” by trying to
give Nana’s favorite grandson
a “chubby” — Nona won, the
rest are boner shrinkers.
(“Isn’t it a shame”)so many have so little appreciat-
ion for Quality.I to did know the difference between hamburger and steak til I tried it(“Get you somebody new”)It’s ok with me if you like”music that has nothing to say except that you gonna beat b with a bat, but(“Come with me if you believe”)that there is always room REAL TALENT.(“Who’s watching the watcher”)apprently no one if the powers that be allow garbage “ella ella”to saturate the air ways giving our childern the impression that it’s Quality,as oppose to leaving it in it’s rightful place(a pretty catchy tune that will be forgotten 30 years from now).(“going down make me shiver”)when i think of the fact our childern have been fooled into thinking that it’s ok to disrespect 40+ years of hard work and GREAT MUSIC!”(Come into my life”)On Jan.10 I’ll travel to Chicago(from cols,ohio thank you maceo)to experience the awsome magic that is LaBelle!!!
Ladies keep doing what you do so well as long as you like. PEACE&LOVE….. get you some
