"Countdown to apology"

Beyonce: "And this is how big of a star you are compared to me."

It really saddens me when celebrities let their egos get the best of them. Really, it does.

Etta James is going on 128 actin' like a damn teenager for the media all because Beyonce out-sang her song for the inauguration. I'm sure you've all already heard about this and are shaking your heads just as hard as I am. Now James is threatening, and I quote, "to beat a b*tch's a*s" [I hate profanity too, but Etta said it - not I] and denouncing Obama as her president. Come on now, Etta.

I understand that she's a soul legend and my feelings would be extra hurt as well if my president chose my understudy instead of me to sing my own song when I'm still alive, but there's no need for name-calling. . .

“You guys know your president, right?” she asked the crowd. “The one with the
big ears? 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.”

Lol. I'm sorry. I just think sour old women are hee-larious. And you know you're secretly hoping Beyonce sucks it up and stops feeling personally attacked [even if she was] long enough to fire some equally stinging comments. My only question is how long before Etta apologizes? I think this happened a few days ago. Her PR people need to step their games up.
