Etta James Versus Beyonce

Wow, Catfight in the house. It seems the 71-year-old soul legend Etta James has turned on none other than Beyonce Knowles, who so memorably portrayed her in last year's overlooked film Cadillac Records.

Ms James, complained about not being asked to sing her signature song, "At Last," during President Barack Obama's first dance with his wife, Michelle She was then quoted as saying "You guys know your president, right?" she asked the crowd. "The one with the big ears?" (Rude, Etta!) "He ain't my president. He might be yours..." she continued, before adding that "that woman he had singing for him...she's gonna get her ass whipped. The great Beyonce...I can't stand Beyonce."

Okay, why is Etta hating? Beyonce did and outstanding job. Their is no greater honor then when someone imitates you in life. If Barack wanted OLD ASS ETTA up there, don't you think he would of got her. Dang, Michelle wanted Beyonce.
