Seems like Etta James isn’t too happy that Beyonce sang “At Last” for Barack Obama’s inauguration ball.
Etta James & Beyonce Have BEEF Now???

dried up old bat!! She isn’t even the first person to have sang this song!! Beyonce was more than half of the hype for the release of her biopic!!
She basically used Etta. Because that biopic was all about trying to win an Oscar, then she invites herself to the inauguration, and then performs this lady’s classic song on top of her back to back albums. People are tired of Beyonce constantly injecting herself into the spot light.
I put my money on Etta! The movie flopped because of beyonce…..
THE LIFE FILES I AM SO SURPRISED AT YA’LL LACK OF CREDIBILITY!! THIS AUDIO IS CLEARLY NOT ETTA JAMES. IT’S A FREAKIN DRAG QUEEN THAT WAS IMITATING ETTA JAMES.
C’MON YA’LL. STEP YOUR GAME UP AND DON’T START BECOMING LIKE MEDIA FAKE OUT!
That movie wasnt even about Etta James..she was only at the last segment of the movie…Im not a big beyonce fan but Im tired of people trying to dog the girl out like that…
Etta james..they aint call you to come and sing the song because..1. you might have not shown up and embarassed our Black asses…2. they couldnt rely on if you would be sober or not..3…grannny relax and go drink a green tea
Beyonce keep doing do. You need that haters to make you sell more albums
This story is also being reported on other reputable news sites so I think that it does have some truth to it.
The Beyonce fans are hurt so they are making up rumors that this is false and that a “comedian” recorded this, this is the real Etta James! Will Barbara Streisand and Tina Turner come after Beyonce’s wig too?
I don’t know if its Etta or not, but I kind think its someone else. I remember ya;ll posted video/pics of Bey and Etta at the movie premiere and Etta praised Beyonce and said how honored she was to have a “clean girl” depict her. And I hope she aint throwin’ salt at the President like that
IN NO WAY AM I TAKING UP FOR BEYAWNCE B/C EVERBODY KNOWS I AM NOT A BEYAWNCE FAN, HOWEVER, WHAT’S DONE IS DONE, IT WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY THAT SHE PERFORMED THIS CLASSIC HIT FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA & THE 1ST LADY. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE APPROPRIATE TO LASH OUT WHEN WE WERE WARNED ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE A WEEK BEFORE THE INAUGURATION, OVER IT, NEXT!
Ms James, how come your old ass couldn’t have just been FLATTERED! Getting up on stage sounding like an angry ass old lady whichya dude voice.
Divo they have the vid on youtube where it’s Etta speaking and then she preforms At Last. Etta said it.
Bey betta hope miss etta don’t drag her by her lacefront……….miss etta is from tha ol school and been done gave bey an ol school azz whoopin!
I’m with Etta on this one…B served no purpose. Tears started to well up in my eyes as I watched our new president and his queen take thier first dance and then it hit me..no they don’t have fucking Beyonce screwing up one of the greatest songs of all time. Gonna have to stick with Nina now cause Lord knows B has no vocal skills to copy her {B: riffs and that ain’t sanging in my book}. It was a breath of fresh air not to see the broad perfrom for the super bowl 1/2 time show. Thank God for small miracles…NEXT!!!
^^^ i agree, Beyonce’s voice is very mediocre, she trys to damn hard, she just wanted to say she was part of history, she practically begged in the media to perform without actually being invited. she did well tho for there 1st dance. and she only did the “Etta James” movie in hopes of getting an Oscar !!! Everything she does is strategically done, not from the kindness of her heart. She just needs to sit down for a while, she acts as tho world needs to see her 24/7.
DAMN YA’LL SOME HATERS…AND ETTA, ETTA, ETTA…THAT’S THE PROBLEM WITH BLACK PEOPLE TODAY. SHE (ALONG WITH THE REST OF YOU) IS A VICTIM OF THE “CRAB IN A BUCKET” SYNDROME. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE SONGS BEEN REDONE, REMIXED, REMADE, BY OTHER ARTISTS. SHE SIMPLY PERFORMED THE WOMAN’S SONG, AND SHE SHOULD BE GREATFUL PEOPLE THINK ENOUGH OF HER SONG TO WANT TO PERFORM IT. IMITATION IS THE BEST FORM OF FLATTERY. THIS IS BEYONCE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT. SHE GOT ENOUGH MONEY, CREDIBILITY, ETC. TO PERFORM ANY DAMN SONG SHE WANT, AND SHE CHOSE ETTA’S. AGAIN SHE SHOULD BE GREATFUL. WHO THE HELL WOULD EVEN BE TALKING ABOUT HER OLD ASS RIGHT NOW IF NOT FOR THAT MOVIE, AND BEYONCE PORTRAYING HER. SHE NEEDS TO GET A CLUE…
AND DAMN SO WHAT! OK SHE HAS A STRATEGY TO GET RICH AND WIN AWARDS. ISN’T THAT THE FU*KING POINT???????? MAYBE IF YA’LL GET YA ASS OFF THE COMPUTER WORRYING ABOUT EVERY DAMN BODY ELSE…YOU COULD FORM A STRATEGY TO GET UR SHYT TOGETHER TOO! YA’LL HATING ASS PEOPLE ARE SOMETHING ELSE. YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THE AUDACITY TO GET ON HERE AND SHOW THE HATE TOO…THAT’S THE BAD PART ABOUT IT. SAD, SAD, SAD…SMDH
^^^^^^^HI MR.KNOWLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^^^actually sounds more like solonge
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ yeah it does……LMAO!!!
If I was Beyonce, i’d tell Etta “come ooooon Cletus” but she’d have to catch me first! ha! Don’t have a heart attack! (ok kind of mean, but SO WHAAAT!) ha ha ha
*looks around for Amir7*
@ ladee……..lmmfao…………………*lookin for amir7 w/ ladee*
omg wtf is she still on drugs??!! i hope the situation gets handle in a professional manner. beyonce didn’t mean any harm and she praised etta james for her strength and ability to take risk and never looking back. and she would say something like this?????!!!!!! that would piss me the hell off!!!!!!!!!!
Etta aint new to this! she sees right through the Beyonce bullshit. Beyonce was’t paying homage to her, she was trying to win an Oscar. Bey probably has never really given a fuck about nobody’s Etta James. She just saw an opportunity and went for it. I can’t hate on her hustle, but her STANS can’t hate on the people who see thorugh it. it’s been Beyonce overkill ever since she went solo. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that folks are begining get tired of her. She should really consider falling back for a min.
OL BITTER A$$ BITCH STOP HATING
