the fan starts to strip and act crazy,and Patti ain't havin' it

Patti LaBelle freaks out at fan who stripped on stage

(New York Post)

Don’t cross Patti LaBelle.

During her Friday night show in Vancouver, the singer kicked a fan off her stage for stripping during a song, according to a video obtained by TMZ.

The singer stopped the music saying, “Don’t you dare! Not on my stage. Let me say something. Did I say I’m 71-year-young. I am not Nicki Minaj or that little ugh…Miley.”

The fan didn’t heed her warning and continued to dance provocatively.

His actions sent LaBelle into a range. She bumped him with her hips and yelled at him, “Get off my goddarn stage, bitch!”

The audience erupted in applause. “Put him out of the building! Put him out!”

She later apologized to the audience for cursing, but said everyone deserves second, third and fourth chances.

“The devil is busy,” she also testified before the packed house.

This is eerily similiar to a 2007 incident,where she invited a male fan onstage and he disrespected her somehow (I forgot what he said) but she angrily grabbed his mike and ordered him to leave her stage

Hmmmm....maybe he got a bit carried away (very mildly).

But that is a pretty excessive over-reaction! She could've just stopped him and laughed and said "next dancer", but instead makes a huge scene and ruins the guys experience, who could've been a fan for a long time.

Get him out the building? Really?!

WOW! I guess it's pretty funny if you're not on the receiving end of it. "Priscilla" does not play around!

What a dramaqueen.

She could have handeled it with a joke and classy, like a 71 year old would.

But no, she had to make a big scene out of a kid just having some fun.

Wasn´t she walking around half naked on stage when she was Nicki´s age and sing `Voulez vous couchez...`?

Drama drama drama.

Save it for Dancing With The Stars!

moral of the story: If she invites you up onstage,don't act a fool Be respectful

She does have a tendency to overreact I agree,she could have handled this with humor

Their outfits were out there but Patti's were always very covered up.

I was gonna say, her costumes were ugly but I have never seen her half nekkid.

No, she wasn't, I'll bet.

WOW

Patti setting them all straight

Patti Labelle always hitting people then talking about "Jesus"

Did she have to charge at the person physically?

Its less about the person doing the silly dance than her suppressed anger towards younger artists/competition who she was ranting about.

"ahhhhhh im not nicki minaj ahhhh" and BANG!

Patti don't play I would never want to piss her off,lol

Yeah,it would have been cool to see her handle this with a little humor and less aggressiveness.She should have just laughed it off and said something like "Man,you must think that this is a strip club.You're in the wrong place,young man"

The young Man was so wrong for unbottoning his shirt...That's not the first time he's done that in Public and that was his intention when she invited him on-stage.....Then the final strike is when he twirked his ass in her direction....Patti was wrong for pushing him and putting her hands on him period..Why pay Security if you're not gonna let them do their job.?..It does not matter if youre Patti LaBelle or Prince, you NEVER put your hands on anyone, especially a stranger that could be packing-heat....I Love me Some Patti but her over-reacting to People on stage has gotten OLD...We've seen her do the same "Do you know who I am?" routine...Yes, it's her stage and she has a right to call out people who disrespect her but maybe it's time to END open-Mic...She changed the entire Mood and everybody felt uncomfortable...How do you save that and continue with the Final half of your show? She's 71, the rolling on the floor has stopped and so should Open-Mic...

^^I agree...maybe she should stop doing the open mic thing.....it can cause some very uncomfotable moments in her show She seems to get pissed very quickly

It looked to me like he was trying to moon her when she went ham on him. Under no circumstances was that acceptable. Auntie Patti put him in his place and put his ass out just like she was supposed to.

Patti is experiencing more vocal-problems than ever before..Some shows are good, and some are hard to believe that she would go out on stage with no voice...It's to the point where she should only do one Show a week becuase if she does 2 or more shows her voice is shot...Last week she told a reporter that she was gonna give a Fierce show "with or without a voice"...That is NOT how I want her to end the last decades of her Magnificent Singing career..Not like that..I like the way Tina Turner retired from the stage. Tina was HONEST about her vocal-decline. Tina told Oprah that she just couldnt sing her songs the same way and she couldnt hit those high notes anymore, so it was time (plus other factors0...Patti has made it very clear that she can't Live without Singing and being on the road...It's as if her own "Ego" is standing in the way of the truth..I honestly believe that Patti could lose her singing voice and she'd expect people to pay to hear her struggle on stage....I don't want her to go out like that...She's too Magnificent to go out like that...
