Those are fighting words




Blues legend Etta James should be ashamed of her self, how old is too old for fuckery. Ms. Etta James performed in Seattle WA she went on to make these statements....


“You guys know your president, right? You know the one with the big ears? Wait a minute, he ain’t my president, he might be yours, he ain’t my president. You know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song. She’s going to get her ass whooped. The Great Beyonce. I can’t stand Beyonce. She has no business sitting up there on a big ole’ president day, singing my song that I’ve been singing forever."

This is a different Etta James who was singing Beyonce's praise on the red carpet for Cadillac Records. Could it be that Ms. Etta James came down with a small case of Curtis'itis? What's Etta's beef with President Obama? Maybe Etta would have liked to perform at the inauguration her self. Etta should be happy that Cadillac Records made her relevant again. In the last 12 months we have heard more about Etta James than we have in the past 10 years. For that alone Ms. James should be rejoicing.
............UPDATE................

Etta and Beyonce will live happily ever after. Ms James was cured from curtis'itis, and said that she consider her to be a comedian besides a singer, she confirmed in a telephone interview on this morning. So for this one we have to give Etta a pass, shes excused we know she is not used to mass media. In her day she was used to radio and television, now we have this thing called Internet.
