Patti LaBelle Does Thanksgiving Her Way and Duets With Viral Sensation James Wright

#PattiPies really do bring people together.

When you are busy being you, singing for your life and stanning for your favorite diva good things may happen to you too! 
After going viral while taste testing and singing the high praises of Patti LaBelle's now famous ready-to-buy sweet potato pies from Walmart, James Wright's wildest dreams materialized yesterday when he spent Thanksgiving with none other than Ms. Patti herself!

After some confusion about whether or not Wright was worthy of all of the praise he was receiving for having #PattiPies fly off the shelves of Walmart turning into over a million dollars in revenue for the soul queen in a weekend, Mutha LaBelle made it clear that she owes him something by inviting him to her house for the holiday for some good eats, a lot of singing and the feeling of warmth and love throughout her abode. 
Other guests included The Roots' Questlove who took a very special video of the duo blessing the food with a tune that you can see below.
