Now here’s a fight I’d pay hundred of dollars for a ticket to watch! 71-year-old singer Etta James actually threatened to beat the crap out of Beyonce Knowles. And it’s all be caught on tape! Fierce & feisty Etta showed who the real diva was and lashed out extra hard on Beyonce during her concert in Seattle a few nights ago reports MTV. James was none too pleased at Beyonces’ rendition of her signature song “At Last” during the first dance of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama at last month’s Neighborhood Inaugural Ball. TMZ caught the audio for her slam on Beyonce.

“You guys know your president, right? You know the one with the big ears? Wait a minute, he ain’t my president, he might be yours, he ain’t my president. You know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song–she’s going to get her ass whipped.”
“The great Beyonce. I can’t stand Beyonce,” she spat. “She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol’ president day, singing my song that I’ve been singing forever.”
Beyonce recently immortalized the legendary singer Etta James in the big screen production “Cadillac Records,” which came out in December. So far neither Beyonce or her reps have had any comments. Ironically Etta didn’t kick up a fuss for Beyonce’s portrayal of her in the movie. She acted as a mentor to Beyonce and even attended the movies premiere, posing for pictures with the younger diva. Don’t let those wrinkles fool ya, she’ll still kick your ass! My money is on James!
