In honor of last night’s #VMAs 🎶📺🏆 Did you watch?
Abortion is healthcare. We have to protect the right to choose and to ensure safe access. I wish a song like “Sally’s Pigeons” did not have to exist.

“Ballad of Cleo and Joe” was released 26 years ago this week! From my “Sisters of Avalon” album.
My buddy Larry Flick from Billboard called the song a “rhythm-smart, lyrically sharp jam.”
Bob Cannon from Entertainment Weekly called me a dance diva and wrote, “But she has too much personality to disappear into an anonymous dance mix…she sounds earthier than usual, giving ‘Cleo & Joe’ – an homage to a drag queen—the gospelish feel of early Donna Summer.” 🪩💃🎶
My old friend Marty Krofft passed away. He produced a show that was a highlight of my career – the 1985 Patti LaBelle Thanksgiving Special. He wanted to have the performances in the round so I got to sing with Patti that way. When Patti sang “Time After Time,” I felt like “Ok, drop the mic. Her voice on something I wrote? OMG!”
Thank you #MartyKrofft for have that kind of faith in me. Wow. I will always be grateful to him for inviting me.
Dear Margaret – Wishing you a lifetime of love, laughs, and all good things. Happy Birthday! 🎈

I released my memoir on this day in 2012! 📚Have you read it?
On this World AIDS Day, let us remember those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses, express solidarity with those living with HIV and AIDS, and show up in action to continue the fight for all of us. Today and every day, I’m standing with Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the philanthropic heart of the theater community, to provide meals and medication, health care and hope for people facing HIV/AIDS and other critical illnesses. Thanks for joining me in making a difference with @bcefa. broadwaycares.org

October is National Protect Your Hearing Month, and I want to help spread the message of heathy hearing because our hearing is precious. We shouldn’t take it for granted because once it’s gone it’s gone, and I for one want to be able to keep listening to the sounds I love. @hearinghealthfoundation #ProtectYourHearing #LoveYourEars #KeepListening
