I understand 100% where Ms. James come from. It was her song she should have been asked to sing the song, but seeing how its not Beyonce’s fault she shoudnt of took it out on her. If u wud ask ray charles to perform his song instead of jamie foxx do to the fact that the movie was about him.

Etta James you had your day back in the day so remember your good days and be glad for them. Your words were outright ficious and uncalled for towards Beyonce. That is your signature song but you do not own this song sister! Beyonce has been gracious and respectful to you at all times. She made a movie -let her make her movie and leave her alone. Get a life!

I LIKE ETTA JAMES AND BEYONCE BUT MS JAMES YOU HAVE LOST YOUR MIND AND MY RESPECT FOR THE DEGRADING THINGS YOU HAVE SAID AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAME OF YOURSELF EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE NOT. YOU SHOULD BE HONORED THAT BEYONCE CHOSE YOUR SONG AND DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB MAYBE YOU’RE JEALOUS AND YOU DISRESPECTED THE PRESIDENT. YOU ARE DISGUSTING NOW AND NASTY. TO MANY OF US OLDER ONES HAVE SAT TERRIBLE EXAMPLES FOR THE YOUNG ONES. YOU NEED TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

I don’t think Etta was serious when she said that! I honestly beleive she was just kidding & having some fun time with the audiance she’s known for beeing stuck up & very proud so she was just playing around with her fans kind of giving theme the reaction that old school Etta would have! I mean can she really change her mind that fast? when Bee sang to her she looked very happy about it & when cadillac came out she said some nice things about her! & right after the inaugural ball her son told the press that Etta was very pleased & honored with Bee’s performance & that she was very emotional while watching it at home but not a lot of websites wrote about that! & NOW we have an audio ( why an audio? who makes an audio at a concert? weird!) where Etta says some stuff & it’s all over the news, I think Etta was just kidding!! & there is some people like always who try to distroy Bee’s image!
