The song At Last, is one of my top ten favorite love songs. The song is beautiful. It touches the soul and just makes you want to fall in love when you hear it; not to mention it's sung amazingly by the wonderful Etta James.........wonderful? that is until Mrs. Knowles- Carter showed up!
When Etta James found out Beyonce had performed her song at the president inauguration in front of millions of people, on one of the most important days in history....Mrs. James lost her cool.
Etta began her speech with making fun of the newly elected Barack Obama, stating that he is not her president, and that his ears are big!
Etta, don't play with me girl, I know you voted for him....what do you live in Africa now, because ten minutes ago you wanted to be an American. And the coldest comment you could make was that his ears are big? Etta girl, I know your from the hood, the home of yo momma jokes and how to make folks cry just by looking at them, and all you could say was Obama's ears a big........lame!
Then Etta goes on to state that, that woman singing her song is gunna get her ass whooped...that would be Beyonce!
I about died laughing because she sounded so country saying that comment....her ass whooped! I may hate on Beyonce too, but I am no trying to beat the girl's ass! Yes Etta, we know you performed the hell out of that song, At Last, during your reign, and that it is your only true hit, but relax and let someone else try and out do you, and when they don't, you can applaud them for trying, and keep it moving, like a lady!
Etta is just mad because she never really had that good hair, body, or complexion, so now she's moved onto hating on others.
Harpo is about are ten seconds away from creating a part -two, to Tyra's player hateHER episode.....it will be staring Etta, shit Etta may even host the show...how to hate 101.......hateful ass woman!
Etta is probably mad because she was not asked to sing her song as the inauguration.....we'll shit they probably wanted a bright, fresh new face, and Etta just isn't it!
I wonder what Etta would have wanted Beyonce to sing instead, even though Beyonce had just finished the movie Cadillac records, and people usually perform whatever they have been recently working on. Should Beyonce have sung bootylicious, bugga-boo, diva, ego, solider or survivor? Huh Etta? which one would be more fitting? So Obama and Michelle could have dropped it like it was hot? Touched their toes and got low? Backed it up on each other? HATER!
Nonetheless, I feel Etta James's pain and anger. If I, like Etta had only one real hit, and my one real hit could fill people with joy and make them want to fall in love, smile, laugh, cry, and all of that gushy gushy.........the hell, I would be damned if another bitch tried to take my shine- trying to out do me! Frankly Beyonce would have been layed out somewhere in some cotton field, if she tried to out do my song!
But even so, Etta, your a lady, if your going to hate on someone do it with class and elegance, don't say someone has big ears or that they about to get their ass whooped. It's 2009, they are gunna start locking people up for that shit and Etta your about to be first!
