Etta James Says Beyonce's Gonna Get Her Ass Whupped |
We've never seen nipple work like it. But while Barack Obama and the rest of the world were enchanted by Beyonce's flawless rendition, one person wasn't so keen - Etta James, the original performer of the song and the woman Beyonce played in Cadillac Records.
Apparently Etta James was so infuriated by the performance that she told a concert audience that Beyonce's "gonna get her ass whupped." Unlikely - Etta James is an old woman, and whupping an ass of Beyonce's size would exhaust a professional cage fighter.

Fall Of Serenity has fallen, the band comments: "After 10 years, we have to close the chapter Fall Of Serenity.

Our singer John will join the band Deadlock on the bass position. These circumstances, and the global warming, make it impossible to go on. So we felt that we, including John, should finally end it."more

My Ruin Singer and Guitarist Get Married |
Yes, it's official. He finally made an honest woman of me. Although I will no longer be known as 'Miss B', I am taking his name legally but keeping my name [Tairrie B] professionally. We tied the knot this past Christmas Eve on December 24th deep in the great smoky mountains of Tennessee about an hour away from Mick's hometown of Knoxville. We had a very beautiful an very 'UN-Hollywood' private ceremony in a quiet little chapel on a hill under grey skies surrounded by lush dark woods. The air was crisp with winter as the wind blew through the trees. Actually, the groom wore black too and he looked very handsome in his three-piece suit which was scented in Armani and silk skull tie.
The ceremony was simple, beautiful and memorable. It was also the first one of its kind, according to the Reverend. Instead of the 'Wedding March', we decided to make it a little more our style, so I walked down the aisle to the sweet sound of Led Zeppelin's 'Whole Lotta Love' rockin' a sexy pair of four-inch leopard stilletto heels and carrying a bouquet I made of black-and-blood red roses with peacock feathers and holiday sparkle in honor of the season. It smelled like Angel perfume and so did the room.
