Etta says She Was Just Playing Ya'll!

Etta James has released a statement saying her recent comments towards Beyonce was just a joke! Read up on it:

Singer Etta James says she was only trying to get a laugh when she said she “can’t stand” Beyoncé and made fun of President Obama’s ears during a concert in Seattle.

James told the Daily News Thursday she meant no harm when she poked fun at the President and ripped Beyoncé for her performance of James’ hit “At Last” during the inauguration.

“I didn’t really mean anything,” James said. “Even as a little child, I’ve always had that comedian kind of attitude. … That’s probably what went into it.”

Damn Etta I respected you a lot more when I thought you meant it!
