  4. Myke_Wayne Says:

    This old Broad sounds ridiculous and the folks applauding are just as bad

  5. noelle Says:

    Good, let me get 2 licks. And my little friend takes karate and taught me a weak ass move. Straight up disrespected Etta by singing at the ball!!

  6. shine95 Says:

    another somebody that feels like theyre owed something. for real. I don’t know nothin about this, but I read that Beyonce is portraying her in that movie Cadillac Records. it’s a very bad look on Etta James. better to be humble on things like this. you already got people making a movie about you. guess that ain’t enough.

    “he ain’t my president”

    all yall need to shut the fuck up with that shit already. it’s just sounds stupid hearing it again and again. just accept the mothafucker already. you “also” can’t even have your own kind to accept the new fuckin president. fuckin pitiful. shit is irritating.

  7. SAMFROMTHEBAY Says:

    people just can’t appreciate the moment that happen that day can they? first it was the dress that Michelle Obama wore and saying it wasn’t designed by an “black” designer and now this….

    are you FUCKIN kidding me? where is the love? guess we ain’t there yet…we still got a long road to achieve that…

    yes, it was Etta’s song, but Bee just did a cover of your song and PLUS she just did a movie about you? Beyonce was paying homage.

    IT’S THE ROCCCC!!!!! R – O – C.

  8. ATI Says:

    HI HATER!

  9. PIGGY ROSS Says:

    WE DIDN’T WANT TO SEE YOUR OLD ASS ON STAGE,YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE BACK IN THE 60S BITCH

  10. Backlash Says:

    “Even though it seems heaven sent, we aint ready to see a black president” …Now I Understand What Pac Was Sayin ..

  11. Backlash Says:

    have*

    cosign #10

    But Bee would tear here a new one if they got into it. She don’t look like that just from sitting on the couch eating ho ho’s. Bee works out. You can definitely believe she can go 12 rounds.

  13. 2cents Says:

    let someone say one more thing bout B…lmmfao!

  14. 2cents Says:

    … The camels gonna get to spittin…lmao!

  15. lolo Says:

    I have to agree with Etta. I can’t stand Beyonce too.

  16. KeeKee Says:

    Ol’ Etta still smokin’ that crack i see…ummm poor thang. I’ll be praying for her.

  17. larryberdz Says:

    Wow thats pretty immature. How old is she for her to be actin like that? thats Ba-Nanas.

  18. shhwhisper Says:

    She may have took it too far but I kinda agree with Etta. They got someone else to sing her most famous song even though she’s still alive and singing. It would be like having Jamie Fox singing one of Ray’s hits at the ball if he was still around and singing.

  19. arequ Says:

    you too old for this. maybe this is why the president picked B.

  20. Mahogany01 Says:

    Wow, you wouldn’t expect an old ass woman like that to act so fuckin stupid!!!!!!!!

  21. BK Says:

    It’s not even her song in the first place!

  22. Jay Gets Busy Says:

    etta james must have taken a hit of that magic dragon before she started speaking…this lady is a one hit wonder who is LUCKY someone is keeping her legacy alive. she has always been quick to run off at the mouth, which got her ass in alot of trouble waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayy back in the day.

    Kudos to Beyonce for doing her thing at the Inauguration, she looked beautiful, as did our President and First Lady!!

    kick rocks etta!

  23. Smooth Da Hustler Says:

    Loser

  24. Louis RICH Says:

    #1 it’s not even Ms. James’ song, Nat King Cole sang it before her & she didn’t even write it (look it up) she’s just famous for doing the same thing Beyonce did,I f Ms. James wants to vent on someone she should start with her FANS! They are the ones who left her high & dry, no one is questioning that “At Last” is her song, but to feed into the hatred for Beyonce’ is not a good look, especially when we’re always being taught to mind & respect our elders. If u don’t like her that’s cool, if you don’t like the president, that’s cool too, but blame yourself & your fans for the downfall of your career, you don’t see Chaka Kahn getting upset everytime someone ask Mary J. to sing “Sweet Thing”! people cover people’s songs all the time & that’s the nature of the business, I’m sure Ms. James signed off in some way whether it was her likeness or music. I won’t say she needs to grow up cause she is a legend & deserves respect but the thing that our “legends” need to do is stop being so insecure about being forgotten! After all if it wasn’t for Beyonce’ many young folk (who have very short attention spans BTW) wouldn’t even know who you are, so lighten up

    Oh yeah I know she’ll probably take the high road, but just once I’d like for B to address the haters by letting them know she ain’t no punk or pushover! lol

  25. scorpio Says:

    @ 23 I agree with your last paragraph, but going at a 71 year old two wrong heartbeats away from death is not the right situation. She should just let this one go, she can’t win this.

  26. WTF...etta put that heroine down! Says:

    What eva! Etta is DEAD WRONG! President Obama didn’t ask her to sing the song cause she is high as hell all the time…Etta back away from hte HEROINE! She (ETTA) has voiced that she doesn’t like him anyway! Beyonce was ASKED to sing the song, “AT LAST”….
    President obama had the song as the first dance at his wedding, so he wanted that song AGAIN!Wow…..she (ETTA) is a hot mess…Beyonce did a great job, and has shown her TONS of respect and PAID that wrinkled ass to use her story in the movie which was actually GOOD…get hte DVD when it comes out. No one is trippin except people that dislike Bey for what ever reason…haters come in all ages i see…..pitiful!

    SAD!

  27. WTF...etta put that heroine down! Says:

    AT #18:

    Why is it OK for EVERYONE ELSE to pay homage to a song from back in the day except Bey?

    I’m every woman by chaka khan
    WHITNEY HOUSTON

    Sweet Thang by Chaka Khan
    Mary J. Blige

    At Last by Etta James
    Christina agulara

    Summer Time-porgy and bess (the play0
    Fantasia

    AND MANY MORE!

    WHY IS IT A ISSUE IF BEYONCE DOES IT?

  28. WTF...etta put that heroine down! Says:

  29. WTF...etta put that heroine down! Says:

    Etta got famous off of NAT KING COLE! That was his shit! Etta sit that ass down!

  30. mateo Says:

    Lol at smartphone users who cant watch videos. Step up your web browser game. Google Skyfire and download that shit

  31. Realtalk Says:

    someone else already said it, but it warrants repeating. Haters come in all age groups. Older people always have negative things to say about the younger generations, and in a lot of cases, maybe they should… But then you have those older folks that want all the respect in the world, without giving any in return, and that’s just not the way the world works..

  32. Yahoo Says:

    Co- sign with Kid Icarus & realtalk.
    If they wanted Etta James to play for the president, then they would have called her, but they didnt so oh well ungrateful ass.

  33. shhwhisper Says:

    @26
    I’m not saying not pay homage and not sing the song at all, I actually like Beyonce’s version. I was talking about singing it at the inaugural ball. I would feel the same about Chaka Khan, if they were singing I’m Every Woman at the inauguration, I could understand if she was a lil bitter that they picked Whitney.

  34. ThugLiscious Says:

    I just think older people went through a lot with racism….and I think she would have been honored to sing a song that she has been singing for years….just like Aretha sang…she probably feels left out of that historic event like he should have had more older people who went through the struggles given a chance to represent that moment….but taking it out on Beyonce might have been too much unless there is more to this story besides the song….maybe she Beyonce portraying her in that movie was the ignited how she feels today…like Beyonce stealing her legacy somehow LOL……Get her Eta! She sure is SPUNKY!

  35. okokokaay Says:

    SOMEONE QUICK NAME 3 ETTA JAMES HITS??????

    Is this what oldschool rappers sound like?

  36. jb Says:

    this old ass bitty needs to sit down i never heard of her ass until beyonce portrayed her in the movie she should be honored that beyonce sung one of her songs and payed homage too her these old heads be bitter when the spotlight is off them her voice prolly wasent strong enough to sing at the inaugaration and from the part bey played this broad was a heroin head and a ho fuckin that white man so sit back and enjoy history

  37. WELL I BE Says:

  38. mz.yaya Says:
