Beautiful, simply does not describe the incomparable force known to the world as Patti
LaBelle. As time continues to evolve, the soulful songbird’s name has become synonymous
with grace, style, elegance and class. Belting out classic rhythm and blues renditions, pop
standards and spiritual sonnets have created the unique platform of versatility that Ms. Patti
is known and revered for.
In 2009, she reunited with Sarah Dash and Nona Hendryx for the first time in 30 years for
the critically acclaimed Labelle reunion album, Back to Now. It’s a small wonder that Patti
has time for anything else in between recording and touring, but she makes time and the
world is oh so happy that she does!
In November 2008, Patti released her fifth book and third cookbook, Recipes for The Good
Life, and an instructional cooking DVD, In the Kitchen with Ms. Patti. The cookbook
features recipes and anecdotes that reflect Patti’s philosophy that good cooking and the love
of entertaining come from the heart. More recently, Patti introduced a line of signature
sauces and marinades called Patti’s Good Life and launched a designer bedding collection,
Patti LaBelle Home.
In addition to her amazing career as an entertainer and entrepreneurial success,
Ms. LaBelle’s work as a humanitarian is just as legendary. She remains an advocate for
adoption, foster care, Big Sisters and the United Negro College Fund, among many other
initiatives. While Ms. LaBelle’s celebrated 50 + year career is respected world-wide, she has
also endured and survived personal strife. Within a 10-year period, she lost her mother,
three sisters and best friend to diabetes and cancer. In 1994, LaBelle was diagnosed with
diabetes and shortly thereafter became a spokesperson for the American Diabetes
Association.

The same motivation that had Patricia Louise Holte blossom from a choir member
to lead vocalist for Patti LaBelle & The Bluebelles and later Labelle, to a solo
artist is the same energy that keeps her fire burning at six-three years young.
“Each year I grow, and that’s a blessing from God. I do what I can do.
I do what I feel God has given me the energy to do, so I just go out
there and I do it…It’s not about making money because I don’t
need money, but I need to sing. With a voice or without,
I’ve got to get on that stage.” And the world is thankful
that Ms. Patti’s voice sounds so good to our ears.
