A couple weeks ago Philadelphia’s Broad Street, between Spruce and Locust, was renamed Patti LaBelle Way. The renaming was done during the Wawa Welcome America Festival, and it was done to honor the legendary singer’s accomplishments and ties to the city.
Patti LaBelle has won two Grammy Awards and is considered the godmother of soul. In addition to her singing career, LaBelle also has a successful line of cakes and pies.
