This the show "Cosby" not "The Cosby Show" two totally differernt shows but Phylicia really can sing her butt off......I always wondered why she never put out an album.
@jewelsheartsmakeup Yeah I know about that, I've heard it before. 5, 6 years from I plan on buying it for my first child. I know she did the Josephine Superstar record too but what I meant was I was wondering why she didn't keep up with that along with acting. Recently she said that the song "We belong Together" which is the song her and Joe Williams did together in the Cosby show was written by a friend of hers. That would have been a wonderful song for her to record....Beautiful Wedding Song
its just a fun show,and very humorous i hate people that try n make good people look bad this was all in fun/humor so 2 yall people who like to get folks pumped up over yall bigheaded trouble seekin drama filled comments go to HELL god doesnt like that
people obviously been in a coma if they don't know this is from the cosby show; therefore it was a planned skit for the show for humor. the people talking shit never even watched the cosby show. if they saw the show they would know that Patti portrayed CHARLENE in this episode. It's comedy people so stop with the drama.
If you listen to the actual recording and then listen closely to Phylicia ..... She killed this... as funny as the moment was musically she hit every note perfectly just down and octave with in the tenor voice range which is awesome due to the fact that she is a woman. Awesome contralto GO PHYLICIA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sure this performance would've lasted well into a few commercial breaks (a la Showtime at the Apollo "Somewhere Over the Rainbow") and they had to cut it short because we all know how Patti is. lol
And thats what Patti does when someone tries 2 b rude on her stage!
Oh and...
Phylicia Rashad if anyone didnt know was the understudy for the Dreamgirls broadway, which is still a hard role 2 get, that was jus a vocal prowess that didnt get out there for singin.
i didn't realize at first that phylicia was the same phylicia ayers-allen who had worked with jacques morali (the village people, the ritchie family) on the great disco album "josephine superstar", a tribute to josephine baker...
What show was this on??? I'm dying to watch the whole episode Im onfused on weather or not its The Cosby show or Out All Night cause Bill Cosby is in it.
I didn't really watch the Cosby Show because I thought it was boring. But of all the episodes I've seen, I never remember her singing. This episode of Cosby is the first time I've seen her sing.
ha ha ha Phylicia Rashad is so funny....u see how she grab the mike from Patti labelle....as if to say she's telling patty ....step away it's my time now in the spotlight .....cant u see my MAN is watching.....look at bill cosby's face when phylicia go over to him and sings in that deep misty tone of voice she has....bill's thinking wait till i get you home tonight ah ah ah ah.....so funny I LOVE BOTH OF THEM....such chemistry they have together.
Debbie definitely got all the dancing talent. Both of them can sing, because DEbbie even had a record out in the late 80's or early 1990's. I recall being big enough to know who she was, and recall her from Fame. But i was too small to remeber any songs from the album.
LMAO 1:47 I love how Patti snatches the mic bac and goes into overdrive! To those who think Patti "shows off" or steals the stage, this is what it would look like.
It's actually from "Cosby." This series came on several years after "The Cosby Show" went off the air. Madeline Kahn and Takia Crystal also starred in it.
you would be correct but she never got a chance to go on when Sheryl Lee left they replaced her instead of puttin Phylicia up as Deena so she left the play witout ever playin Deena but she was in the chorus
do you have a clip of when madeline kahn was trying to sing this song. I believe it was the scene before this one. can you post it, that whole scene was funny.
Is this supposed to be poking fun at Patti Labelle's infamous Mic toss moment at the Motown show? It seems like everyone always makes it seem like Patti was trying to steal the spotlight from Diana and this would be just poking fun at how silly that would be.
Phylicia Rashad can sit on my face anytime!Man yo gotta be crazy to let a piece of tail like dat git away from you. That women is fine,fine, fine! That Ahmad is a FOOL!If I was married to her,she would get anything she wanted.And the only thing out of my mouth woud be "YES Baby and NO Baby"
is that phylicia rashad's voice or patti labelle's backup singer, debbie henry? i know phylicia can sing, but that looked like debbie at 1:47, who was singing when patti took the mic back.
aer1985 that is really phylicia singing but the backup singer was singing also,that's why it looks that way.if you listen you can hear both there voices,phylicia is the deep one.patti was not singing when phylicia took the mic.
Phylicia Rashad is one of my all-time favorite actresses with a smile, voice, beauty, poise, & comedic timing that's beyond compare! One of the last generation of truly classy actresses. PHI-SKEE, Ms. Rashad! Love ya!
Phylicia Rashad is the finest woman I've ever seen on television - movies. She has it all: Grace, glass, sophistication, and beauty. I wonder if Bill ever hit that?
Considering that he's been married the whole time and she married Ahmad Rashad at almost the beginning of the 80s Cosby show, I hope they didn't!
Besides, I think it's a little tacky to say something like that about her. Like she (or any woman) is just a piece of ass to hit. Tacky, tacky. If you think she's so classy, then show some respect, fool!
Murky1177, this isn't about class, it's about ass. The truth is that she's a beautiful woman and Cosby was the one that introduced Ahmad to Phylicia. He gave her away at their wedding. Cosby is known for straying against his wife. She's playing his wife on television... twice! Come on? If you were Cosby's wife, given his track record (Playboy Mansion) would you trust him? I think not!
I hear you. I know she's gorgeous and he's a philanderer. BUT 2 things. First, you talk about it like it was up to him to hit it or not hit it, as if she has no will or say-so.
Second, the choice to bring her in as his wife again was b/c focus groups didn't like the new show. They said he was too mean and they didn't like the actress playing his wife.
LMAO Cosby episode The Return of the Charlites '97: HS friend Charlene comes to town during her worldwide singing tour n gives Ruth chance to sing w/ "The Charlites" at a charity function n accomplish her unfulfilled dream of a glam night in showbiz. Yrs earlier, Ruth passed on a chance to try to make it big too. Charlene became an internatnl superstar but Ruth stayed at home with Hilton. Now Ruth has the chance to be in the spotlight n plans to seize the moment
and you can tell it's LIVE.
