ARETHA UPSET WITH THE QUEEN OF SOUL SLIP-UP |
Posted By: Monica On Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

Aretha Franklin has lashed out at Beyonce Knowles for giving Tina Turner her Queen of Soul tag at the Grammy Awards on Sunday (10Feb08). The R.E.S.P.E.C.T. singer, who was honoured with the Grammy MusiCares Person of The Year award, was stunned when Beyonce introduced her duet partner as the Queen of Soul. Franklin is known throughout the world at the Queen, and she felt more than a little snubbed. And, in a brief statement, Franklin snaps, “I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and Beyonce, however I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy.”

y’know when i seen it, i was like isn’t Aretha Franklin “The Queen of Soul”. now i’m not by myself. Aretha Franklin “the queen of soul” is with me. and before Tina Turner, who is a trip to me, R.I.P. Ike Turner” is the next after Aretha then where does that leave Mary J. Blige.

someone tell me who you would you rather see, Tina Turner or Mary J. Blige?

but what i don’t understand is that bee called tina the queen not the queen of soul. maybe bee sees tina as a queen in her eyes. i think aretha is on an ego trip. she’s great and all but damn you’re not the only great singer out there honey.

I agree with Dorothy. Bey didn’t say QUEEN OF SOUL. She said QUEEN. Damn it wasn’t enough that Bey honored Aretha in her tribute to African American Woman. Can you imagine if she left Aretha out of her tribute? Please she would have hunted down Matthew Knowles and tortured him. I think it was a publicity stunt by Aretha this whole controversy thing.
