Patti LaBelle to young pop stars: ‘Put some clothes on!’

Iconic singer Patti LaBelle sat front row at the Zang Toi fashion show last week — but she saved her front-row shade for barely dressed female pop stars.

“You know, I watched the VMAs and I was totally turned off with what I saw,” she tells Threads. “I need these young girls to put some clothes on!” When asked to name names, LaBelle would only give the side eye. “You know who I am talking about.” (Could she mean Miley Cyrus and her suspenders? Nicki Minaj and her anaconda? This could start another Twitter war!)

LaBelle’s fashion advice? “I would tell them to cover up and stop showing your breasts and butts — you do not need to be naked to sell records. But I don’t know if they would listen to an older woman. I am 72 years young, but I will continue to pray for them as well as myself.” Patti, what’s good?
