Lawsuit: LaBelle threw water at tot in NYC lobby

NEW YORK (AP) -- R&B diva Patti LaBelle hurled curses - and half a bottle of water - at a woman and her 18-month-old daughter after a dust-up over parenting in an apartment building lobby, according to a lawsuit filed Monday and the family's lawyer.

LaBelle's publicists and lawyer didn't immediately respond to Kevin and Roseanna Monk's lawsuit.

The couple live in a Manhattan building where the Grammy Award-winning singer stayed for a time while appearing in the Broadway musical "Fela!" last fall, said the Monks' lawyer, Samuel L. Davis.

He said LaBelle chastised Roseanna Monk for letting the toddler take some steps away from the mother as she grappled with some luggage and a car seat in the building's lobby on the afternoon of Nov. 11, 2010. After Monk scooped up the child and told LaBelle it was none of her business, the singer threw water on them from a bottle she was carrying and then launched into an obscenity-filled tirade, he said.

"Davis said Roseanna Monk had asked LaBelle for an apology and a donation to a children's cancer charity but was rebuffed. The Monks feel "someone's got to teach her even a diva can't attack and frighten and assault regular people in the building," their lawyer said.'

Labbelle also used her body guards to beat up a WestPoint cadet at an airport.

another 1% DNC entertainer attacking the people!

Thanks, I wondered if this was the same washed up singer. I am willing to bet there will be some settling going on with this recent track record. That is if she actually has any money left.

Wasn’t this the same fat toad who harassed and had her bodyguards beat up a West Point cadet a year ago?

Did she actually think the old commie skank would DO that? Hopefully, a conservative has been born, after seeing how entitled lefties act, firsthand!

Yes. In Houston. After the Houston police arrested the cadet, they took photos of themselves with LaBelle and got her autograph. Class, real class.

I'm guessing the same didn't take place in NYC. She can't get a free ride everywhere she goes if she keeps doing this kind of stuff.

Some years ago, our family went to see her at the Hollywood Bowl for my birthday celebration. She proceeded to insult the whites in the audience by referring to ‘her people’ in the back of the Bowl. Well, we were in the back of the Bowl. She also invited a man from the audience up on the stage but the Bowl Security wouldn’t allow it. She then announced she wouldn’t be performing at the Bowl anymore. I was thinking, ‘good. I was excited to see her and she was no longer an fun entertainer’. DIVA with no talent.

Oh, for the love of Pete! Everyone's a grandstanding philanthropist.

You say, "See what drug use does to people? Just say NO!" and walk away.

Wouldn’t be any sense in being one if you couldn’t act like one.

Here you've got a mother with a toddler AND trying to handle luggage AND the car seat. Does prima donna LaBelle offer to help the woman? What a novel thought. Oh no, she berates her! What a piece of trash. And then to toss water on the mother and baby; I would have filed assault charges.

Next, we'll read that the toddler involved in this incident has been tossed out of her play group on a honor code violation.

(inside joke).
