Patti LaBelle Pie: Lady Marmalade Launched Sweet Potato Pie Line Walmart And YouTuber James Wright’s Review Made It Viral [VIDEO]

Just in case you missed it, Patti LaBelle, the headliner of The Bluebells and one of the most iconic voices of soul music, recently contributed with retail giant Walmart to create a new Patti LaBelle pie - and it's so delicious it'll actually turn you into the "Lady Marmalade" diva!

While the previous assessment is not exactly true, that's what's driving people in hoards to the retail chain to try a piece of Patti LaBelle's pie, after one YouTuber, James Wright, posted a hilarious review of the new dessert recounting how he'd magically turned into the 71 year-old superstar after trying the item!

As Jezebel reports, Wright's review of Patti LaBelle's pie, originally posted on Facebook (gaining over 8 million views and nearly 350 thousand shares, later being posted to YouTube to near equal success), sees the very exciting fan completely falling in love with LaBelle's cooking, so much that he just bursts into song by adding up the star's hits like "If You Only Knew" and "On My Own" saying "you turn into Patti after eating this" - really, this guy just knows how to review a pie!

In all, Wright's ode to Patti LaBelle's pie seems something like the real-life version of Titus Andromedon's "Peeno Noir" from the Netflix series "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," and it cannot get much better than that at all.

According to Yahoo! News, after the review of Patti LaBelle's pie went viral, Walmarts all over the country have been trying to keep up with rising demand following the success of the clip, with one particular venue in Valley Stream, N.Y., being sold out since last Saturday even though the website says otherwise - they don't even have pies in the warehouse!

Entertainment Weekly reports that LaBelle herself called Wright to profusely thank him over the massive attention he'd gotten to her new pies, which is really all kinds of adorable.
