Etta James V.S. Beyonce?

She dissed Beyonce probably because she sang it better than her! Her singing is average by todays standards! I think Etta James Is very Immature and Jealous for that for a woman Of her age She is hating on Beyonce she didn't even have to say that bout her I understand she is upset that Beyonce didnt introduced her in the beginng of the song but she didnt have to say that Do you agree or no.?

Then she gets mad because Obama let Beyonce sing it in stead of her She is childish

Update:

Idc what u say thats your opinion on who sings better back n the day Etta was that deal but now she str8 I dnt c what u guys hating on beyonce for she can sing she sound good if she didn't obama wouldnt never chose her to sing at is thing

    Respect your elders little girl. Without Etta James, do you think Beyonce and many other stars would be here? No way they would not. I laugh at you saying that Beyonce sung better than Etta James. Etta James can easily give people chills and she made "At Last" extremely popular even now. Her voice may have deteriorated but she still have that soul and can sing at age 71! Beyonce would not be able to sing as well at that age nor will she be remembered for a song that isn't so bouncy.

    Etta James' comments were definitely uncalled for...but there's no comparing her version of the song to Beyonce's.

    Like, come on. Etta's version is the undisputed classic.

    We all know Beyonce cant sing, even yahoo admit that. It was on the news, TOP 10 WORST SINGERS I THINK

  • Etta got that beef...

    She didn't have to say all that, no.

    Especially about OBAMA.

    She may be quite the disgrace to the race, now, amongst many Black jazz fans, unless I'm mistaken.
