Tasked with addressing the mourners at the star-studded memorial, Warwick instantly commanded the room in true diva fashion when she opened with the now much-discussed line:

“Alright now y’all, I said good morning. You’re supposed to be talking to me when I talk to you.”

The moment immediately sent social media into overdrive, with many praising the 85-year-old icon for bringing humour, presence and undeniable auntie energy to an otherwise emotional gathering.

Held in New York, Davis’ funeral drew a long list of music heavyweights, including Alicia Keys and Jennifer Hudson, paying tribute to the industry titan whose influence helped shape generations of stars.

And as ever, Ms. Warwick reminded everyone exactly why she remains one of one.
