Beyoncé “At Last” under fire

A living legend loses her cool at a recent concert in Seattle. Etta James of 1960’s fame lashes out at Beyoncé over her rendition of James’ hit, “At Last.”
Beyoncé’s moving performance of the ballad was certainly a highlight of the inaugural ball on Januaury 20th when she serenaded the President and First Lady. James, however, was not impressed and she let the Seattle crowd at her concert last week know it…
“Your President, the one with the big ears … he had that woman singing my song. She goin’ to get her a** whipped.” She continued, “The great Beyoncé … I can’t stand Beyoncé,” according to audio from Crown City Media.
These cross comments come as a shock because only a few months ago, the two were photographed, arm in arm at the Hollywood premiere of Cadillac Records. In the film, Beyoncé plays the role of Etta James and reprises several of her hits, including “At Last.” The rant didn’t end with Beyoncé, James also took on our new President, referring to him as “the one with the big ears.”

A spokesperson for James has dismissed the comments saying, “Ms. James has noting but love for Beyoncé and President Obama, her remarks were merely banter between songs.”
