This weekend, the legendary Patti LaBelle was exalted during her birthday performance in Brooklyn at Barclays Center in true diva fashion—dancing to 50 Cent’s “In Da Club” as the crowd roared in celebration.

The unforgettable moment reached its peak when Black Promoters Collective’s President Shelby Joyner and Walt Reeder Jr. took the stage—surrounded by a stunning display of flowers and a show-stopping birthday cake—to present Ms. LaBelle with the gift she had been dreaming of: an exquisite Goyard Saigon bag. The surprise on Patti’s face and the joy in the air were palpable, making the audience feel excited and engaged.
