Patti Labelle Forgets Lyrics During Tina Turner Tribute At 2023 BET Awards

Patti Labelle had some mishaps when honoring her late friend. The singer paid tribute Tina Turner at the 2023 BET Awards on Sunday night with a rendition of Tina’s hit song “The Best.” But the 79-year-old didn’t know all the words to the classic song, telling the audience at one point, “Whatever, I can’t see the words, I don’t know. I don’t know. I’m trying y’all.” Tina died last month at the age of 83 at her home in Switzerland.
