BEYONCE SINGS AT LAST LIVE 2 ETTA JAMES Broken Hearted Girl Halo Single Ladies Why Don't You Love Me BEYONCE TALKS TO ETTA JAMES AFTER SHE SINGS "AT LAST" TO ETTA JAMES IN CRYSTAL HD LIVE AT FASHION ROCKS CONCERT and then later Etta James Disses Beyonce For Singing At Last at Barack and Michelle Obama's First Dance.

It's safe to assume that Beyonce's portrayal of Etta James in the retro film Cadillac Records did not impress the legendary soul singer.
The 71-year-old pioneer, who rose to fame in 1950s, recently made it clear that she was not a fan of the self-proclaimed diva whose third solo album I Am...Sasha Fierce is the #3 album in the country.
Before performing "At Last" at Seattle's Paramount Theatre last Wednesday, James complained about Beyonce singing the song for President Obama and wife Michelle's first dance at the Neighborhood Ball.
"You know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song, she's going to get her a-- whipped," Etta said to a thunderous applause. She went on to add that she could not "stand" Beyonce.
Some dismiss James' anger as jealously, saying that she is only upset because she was not invited to perform the song herself.

Etta doesnt look too well in this Vid. you can tell she was not well ;-(

@jibaradepr with all due respect..I LOVE Christina A...however, she puts too many RIFFS in a classic song like "At Last' .which literally did not do the song justice..Beyonce does this song EXTREMELY well. Her vocals are ever so smooth and appealing. Additionally, she does not try to sound like Etta James, but captures her passion in the song..
-
Another great on that can really squeeze the juice out of this song is Cristina Aguilera. I like her performance better than Beyonce....just by a pinch more.
-
Why was Etta James soooo upset at Beyonce?.......What a beautiful thing she did here for the leyend. That was very humble from Beyonce. A real tribute.

R.I.P Miss. ETta James

RIP...

Etta James is boring? Go sit in a corner and stop breathing.
They are not comparable, they don't live in the same time, they don't sing in the same time. It's like saying Billie Holiday is boring, cause your ears are more accustomed to Janis Joplin sound.
