Patti LaBelle Goes OFF on a Fan!

Click to return to TMZ.comDon't mess around with Patti LaBelle! Patti proved that you shouldn't -- by verbally stomping all over a fan who was invited on stage during her performance!

The young man was very close to LaBelle, when she jokingly told the Kansas City audience, "He was dancing too close to me!" The fan then said, "I think you wanted it more than I did!" The audience roars with laughter, but the look on Ms. LaBelle's face shows she's not amused!

Miss LaBelle went LaBallisitic!

She tells the frightened man, "I don't play that, okay? Do you know who I am?" and reminds the fan he's not at a Lil' Kim concert! Oooh, yes she did! She then snatches the microphone and kicks him off the stage!

The audience began to tell the miffed LaBelle that he didn't mean it, and Miss L quipped, "He didn't mean it? Just like Britney Spears didn't mean it the other night!" Patti proved that she can insult as she pleases, but no one better step to her! Daaaamn, diva!

31. I am so tired of "star" be so full of themself. She was offensive to him. Why didn't the audience boo her off the stage and demand their money back.

32. jUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF A STAR WHO'S GOTTEN TOO BIG TO BE ABLE TO LAUGH AT HERSELF AND HAVE SOME FUN WITH A FAN ON STAGE. iNSTEAD LA PATTI SCOLDS ONE OF THE FOLKS WHO HAVE MADE HER A STAR AND PULLS OUT THE DIVA CARD TO BELITTLE ONE OF THE "LITTLE PEOPLE". I THINK SHE HAS GOTTEN TOO BIG FOR HER BRITCHES!! WHAT A NASTY DISPLAY SHE PUT ON AND THEN CALLS HIM BACK UP ON STAGE, NOT TO MAKE "NICE" BUT TO HAVE HIM APOLOGIZE TO "HER MAJESTY". WHAT A BITCH!! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED, MS LA BELLE. I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN THAT.

35. Check your blood sugar Patti, I think you need some insulin because you are acting whack.

36. What gives Patti the right to make a comment about Britney? Britney has accomplished more in her 25 years than Patti ever will. Britney hasn't done a dam thing to Patti and she finds it necessary to make derogatory comments about someone who hasn't done a dam thing to this bitch.

Must be hard to realize that a 25 year old has out done you in everyway and all you can do is sit back and judge and belittle someone who hasn't done anything to you. You would think as religious as she is she wouldn't judge someone else.

37. ok, is someone suffering from a menopause hot flash? He was obviously kidding, as she was, oh he's dancing too close to me. It's not like he was humping her leg.

40. I saw this yesterday on CL & I was wondering what he said because I couldn't hear it - yeah she could have taken that one in stride, I mean she used to tour with Elton John back in the day so she really should be in the "I've heard/seen it all" stages now...

44. First of all see the video SECOND of all who ever you are who actually think that Spears is even on the same level as Patti ARE YOU STUPID.. OMG gosh .. Britney would even luagh at your dumb ass. Okay and to let you know TMZ is wrong some of you idiots didn't even see the whole video. And no MAN has the right to dance to close to ANY woman and be disrespected by some dude who just got paid on the 15th or a millionare for that matter. She asked him back on stage and HE apologize yes it was a joke but it was a distasteful joke. Thats whats wrong with us women, we don't hav enough respect for ourselves to tell a man black white or whatever to step back "do you know who I am"

45. keep on bumping and grinding and its getting nowhere. This women has more money in her closet than all of you will ever make in a year. To young to stupid to appreciate classic and timeless.. thats why the britneys don;t last. Thats why when Patti does her concerts she still sells out. You can't touch it or beat. Maybe Britney could learn a thing from her about respect for yourself. Your family, and you career. That's how you last. Stop pleasing the fans immoral mindset.
