Angry Aretha Franklin Blasts Beyonce Tina Turner “The Queen” Comment Grammy Awards 2008
An offended Aretha Franklin says in a statement: “I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and Beyoncé, however I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy. In addition to that, I thank the Grammys and the voting academy for my 20th Grammy and love to Beyoncé anyway.”

i thought it was very disrespectful whoever ideal it was to have her say tina was queen of soul.if they new there history about music they especially her parents they would have known that aretha has been a soloist and making the hits before tina .tina was in a group.didn`t become a soloist until the 80`s.beyoncee is young.so tina might be queen of soul to her.it was an insult not to acknowlege aretha , especially when she was already presented a queen of soul award .everyone has a queen in there family.but as a soloist in r&b and gospel . there is only 1 aretha.there are 3 divas,madonna ,whitney,miss janet since the 80`s they are beautiful ,intelligent women and they still are making top songs and they are over 40.the people beyoncee sing to are young crowds. aretha and 3 divas named above attract all ages. but whoeveer manage solange should stop .everybody talks about how she can`t sing.you`re not the jacksons. michael might have his problems but he`s in the world guiness

She Didnt Call her The “Queen Of Soul” You Jackass. She Introduced Her As Simpy The “Queen”. I Am So Sick And Tired Of Ppl Saying That Beyonce Is Young And How She Doesnt Know Better. Im Sure She Has Done Her Research, And Knows That Aretha Is The “Queen of Soul”. And Blame The Writers, Cause Beyonce Was Only Reading What She Saw. Some Of you Ppl Can Be So Stupid And Naive.

Beyonce is a air head but she is making that money. No matter what Beyonce is only about Beyonce. For and example 2009 BET awards: within tree days everyone did something as a tribute to MJ, So what does Beonsay do. She portrays herself as an angel she received a luke warm applause. I know the people in the audience were thinking the same thing I was thinking What?
