Aug. 29 -- Patti La Belle accepted her Lady of Soul Train Award — and immediately said she wanted another singer to take the honor.

La Belle, who received the Lena Horne Award for outstanding career achievement Tuesday night, used the moment to pay tribute to Aaliyah. The 22-year-old was killed in a weekend plane crash.

'Missing You' Singer Returns

John Waite is not waiting any longer to make a comeback.

The singer, whose song "Missing You" was a popular hit in the 1980s, is out with a new CD, Figures in a Landscape."I'd been waiting in the wings to make a record for a long time," said Waite.

He says he was totally prepared when a record deal was recently offered.

"I had all these songs on the bench … so I thought, OK we'll just throw 'em together and see if it hangs together as a record," said Waite.

He says the album is a mix of love songs and tunes about breaking up. As for his most recognizable hit, he was surprised it's the one that caught on with audiences.
