ARETHA FRANKLIN - ARETHA UPSET WITH BEYONCE'S QUEEN OF SOUL SLIP-UP

I am surprised that Aretha Franklin turns out to be a "sensitive artiste" over that comment! However, I, myself did clear my throat when I heard Beyonce speak "Tina ... Queen ..." and "Soul", as to these ears Tina Turner was more a Soul/R&B vocalist in the really early years with Ike. Tina Turner, Queen of Rock, or Rock-Pop seem to be better monikers, though her contemporary CDs do contain "R&B"/Pop tracks, of course, such as "What's Love Got To Do With It". Chaka Khan, or Gladys Knight would be more "Queens-of-Soul, in-Waiting" ... But hey, Beyonce is young, plus she was starstruck with her idol Ms Turner lending the stage.

I particularly noticed what Beyonce said and I was a bit surprised and confused as its common knowledge that Aretha has been called the Queen since at least the 1960's. When so many female singers are being considered to play the part of Aretha in the movie about her life (and I do not know if Beyonce was even considered), it was an extremely gross error, either in her judgment, or, in the writers lack of knowledge -- it should not have been spoken.
