A 2008 run-in between Patti LaBelle and the wife of former Nickelodeon producer Dan Schneider, Lisa Lillien, has resurfaced.
Atlanta Black Star reports that the clip began making waves after an X, formerly known as Twitter, user revealed the woman in the ‘Tyra Banks Show’ clip was Schneider’s wife.
Serious allegations towards Dan were part of the jaw-dropping documentary ‘Quiet On The Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV.’ This spotlight is not only shining on Schneider but also on those closest to him.

See What Happened With Patti LaBelle & Lisa Lillien
On the daytime talk show, his wife, Lisa Lillien, appears in a cooking segment with the host and LaBelle. Lillien, an actress and celebrity baker, shared her cupcake recipe. Patti, known for her baking ability, joined for the taste-testing portion.
In the clip, the legendary singer became annoyed with Lillien when she accused her of attempting to eat the paper wrapping the cupcakes was baked in.
The Philly native picked up one of the cupcakes and stated, “This has paper on it.” Lillien responded, “You can’t eat the paper.”
“Nope,” the songstress co-signed. “But you can touch it with your hands,” she noted.
“That is true,” Lillian said. She then turned her attention to Tyra and explained what she used to make the cupcakes.
Patti LaBelle contorted her face and rolled her eyes at the thought that the cupcake chef would imply that she would consume the paper.
“Eat the paper? Girl,” Labelle said seemingly annoyed. The audience ate up her reaction and giggled as she showed her frustration.

Tyra asked the audience, “What is Patti saying over there?”
As soon as Lisa turned to the Grammy winner, Patti asked, “What makes you think I can eat the paper, boo?” The audience laughed hysterically.
Lillien explained that she could not eat the cupcake wrapping as if the veteran vocalist wasn’t already aware.
“Because you can’t eat the paper. No paper. Paper bad — cake good.” She condescended, “You’re the one that wanted to eat the paper.”
In disbelief, the international star turned and asked the audience, “I didn’t want to eat the paper. What’s wrong with her?”
Lillen continued to explain the cupcake recipe to Tyra, but the audience couldn’t contain their laughter. Dan’s wife stopped speaking and asked Patti LaBelle, “Are you okay?”
Patti said, “Girl, yea, but I don’t eat paper.”
She informed Lisa that she was holding the cupcake by the paper to let everyone know she wasn’t touching it with her hands. “I just meant that I’m not touching the actual cupcake, boo.”
It finally sank in, and Lisa responded, “Ohhhhh, I see.”
