Jody Watley In Chengdu.
My trip to Chengdu was awesome, another blessing of an experience for all of us. To perform as a part of the Night of Fortune GRAMMY All-stars Concert at Chengdu Stadium in front of 40,000 fans left me speechless – until the Panda Tour which was the icing on the cake. I’m thankful to God for continuing to bless me to do what I love, on my own terms and to live a balanced life beyond ‘entertainment.’

I loved this moment with some of the children’s chorus!
The children’s chorus sang a beautiful and moving song – brought me to tears – this was evening rehearsal.
There was a great tribute to Michael Jackson with rare footage from the GRAMMY archives before the children came out for a dance tribute medley.

When I perform in concert, one of the things I enjoy is leaving room for spontaneous moments for those of us onstage or those priceless moments an artist can never plan for with the audience. I feed on the love and energy – we all do.
This is a snippet of my makeover of the Diana Ross, Pam Sawyer penned classic ‘Love Hangover’. Though I did record a more faithful version of the original; it’s the downtempo ambient version I like the most for my style. Levi Seacer, a former member of Prince’s NPG is a stellar musician and a recent addition to my band provides that classic raw blend of soul, funk and rock. He took the vibe up several notches on this particular night. My band kicks ass, as does my show in the most unexpected ways. Don’t miss out the next time I’m in your town – I don’t come around often. There’s something to be said for rare, memorable and special occasions.
