More quotes by Patti LaBelle
I decided to always sing in the back with the chorus and never went up front because I had trouble performing.
Patti LaBelle
Always respect yourself and don't go out there disrespecting yourself.
Patti LaBelle
Whenever I go out, so many people who respect me ask me what to do in a certain situation. A lot of times, I didn't know the answers because sometimes I was going through the same sort of thing. But then later on, I would think of things that people told me.
Patti LaBelle
Real divas give 150 percent. If they don't have the right dress, they'll go out in whatever they have. If there are no microphones, they'll still put on a show. They are people who put their heart and soul in what they do.
Patti LaBelle
I know how to put it on when it comes to interviews and performing because I have to. But I'm pretty laid back.
Patti LaBelle
I haven't stopped looking for the good in people. I've just accepted the fact that I'm not always going to find it.
Patti LaBelle
I'm so grounded, it's sad.
Patti LaBelle
I'm 60, and I did 60-year-old women songs. I'm not trying to be the Hip-Hop Queen, although I am the original Hip Hop Queen.
Patti LaBelle
I don't feel as though I have to prove anything to anybody.
Patti LaBelle
You've got to know business before you go to show business.
Patti LaBelle
It's a sweet thing, faith. With it, you can handle any circumstance, any crisis, because you know God always has your back. And when God is for you, who can be against you? Nobody. As my Aunt Hattie says, One and God are a majority.
Patti LaBelle
You don't have to be an angel, just be someone who can give.
Patti LaBelle
I'm very shy in a crowd.
Patti LaBelle
I never thought I would be singing for the world.
Patti LaBelle
So if anybody wants to get me something, get me 60 crabs - one for each year. I don't want no diamonds, I don't want no shoes, I don't want no party. I want some crabs.
Patti LaBelle
I clean my house, although I have help. I'm on the floor getting spots. I can't stand a dirty house. I'm a cleaning fanatic.
Patti LaBelle
I'm very spontaneous.
Patti LaBelle
I like hip-hop music, but some of the lyrics make me want to cry.
Patti LaBelle
I always have to go that extra mile, and I do it and I don't mind doing it, but it isn't fair.
Patti LaBelle
All these little heifers who can't sing are called ‘divas’.
Patti LaBelle
