When will everbody learn that she is not really as great as people think. The only reason I am glad she is around is because Forbidden Broadway is f*cking hilarious because of her.

ChiChi, I never thought of it that way.
You're right. I'm over it. I'll pass the word to all the other Patti fans. (And the Tonys, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, and the whoever-hands-out-the-Oliviers committees.)
No need to check out any other Patti threads. I'll make sure everybody's on board.

I love that we're still talking about it. It was over a week ago. Gypsy's closed. Patti is Marmite, we get it.

Any other ANTM fans? It reminds me of Tyra yelling at Tiffany, especially the "HOW DARE YOU?!!!" part.
Awww... Yelling at Tiffany really is a dyeing art form. And far more unsubstantiated. She was just trying to have a pleasant farewell. It's not like she was taking photos during the taping of the "Shake Ya Body (Body)" music video.
And Patti is every bit as great as I think she is. Her performance in Master Class was perfection both times I saw it and her Matters of the Heart concert at the Donmar was sublime. But if you have to try and tell "everybody" that she's not actually great, then perhaps you need to evaluate your perspective a little more objectively. You are, after all, admitting that you are the sole minority in LuPone admiration. It does sounds suspiciously like the "I'm-not-lying-everybody-else-is" defense. It might work on rich suburban cool moms with tennis bracelets, spiky hair and terra cotta skin tones after you get caught dumping a quarter bag into the brownie mix during Home Ec class in eighth grade, but it's not applicable to everything. Believe me, I've tried.
It's ok Reg. You can believe she's as good as I think she is. And I'll even let you borrow my Maybelline Kissing Potion after third period.

The best part about all of this is that Patti probably doesn't care and hasn't given it a second thought.

Is it true patti staged this?
#114
Posted: 10/17/19 at 7:21pm
She didn’t stage it, but I have heard whisperings over the years that the person taking photos was hired for a piece being written and was there taking professional photos.

Gillian Laub is/was the photographer and she has said LuPone apologized directly and was embarrassed afterwards though she’s never publicly addressed this. Gillian had been approved in advance by not only LuPone but also the production to photograph portions of “Rose’s Turn” for New York Magazine.
Apparently as legend now stands, LuPone must have been so focused and in character that she forgot the pre-authorized photos and went off. Gillian has stated that LuPone contacted her the following day and personally apologized to her.
LuPone has never corrected the true situation whenever it has been addressed in interviews. She fuels the myth herself.

People complaining about it 'ruining the show'. Bitch I would pay full price just to watch Patti LuPone yell at disrespectful audience members. The part about it being a designated photographer is kind of funny in retrospect.

I read Gillian Laub’s post somewhere on social media maybe a year or so ago and couldn’t believe that hadn’t come out sooner AND that no one else seemed to have read it. I thought I was living in a parallel universe for a while.
That being said, I’m going to be a nitpicky Patti fan and say that while obviously she’s never come out and explained what really happened, she really engages more with the conversation about cell phone use in the theater. I think she has seemed embarrassed when people bring up the photographer incident, and definitely when the remix of her yelling at the photographer is brought up.
