Did Aretha throw the last great shade we will ever hear?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Was Shaderetha's "great gowns, beautiful gowns" the final classy diva shade we will ever hear? The pop girls these days seem so tame. 

Madonna seems nicer since her "reductive" days. 
 

Mariah also seems tamer. No more "back when I was in 7th grade when she used to be popular" comments.

 

Billie's variants comments lacked creativity and bite. Didn't she even retract her comments or something?

 

Are we in the kumbaya era of pop music?

Aretha was a pro at throwing shade lol. I'll always find this one funny: :lmao:

 

 

At the 2008 Grammy Awards, Beyoncé introduced Turner onto the stage by referring to her as 'The Queen'. Watching from home, Franklin was apparently so incensed by this that she released a public statement regarding the issue: "I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and Beyoncé," she wrote, "However I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy. In addition to that, I thank the Grammys and the voting academy for my 20th Grammy and love to Beyoncé anyway."

 

Turner then responded with her own statement, claiming that Franklin "has always been like that" and that "her ego must be so big to think she was the only one". However, Franklin issued the last word with another statement that read: "I have always appreciated what Tina Turner has to offer and had quietly cheered her on after Ike and her subsequent success. However, with respect to her statement concerning my ego, clearly, she was talking about herself, particularly since she does not have a clue as to who I am in view of the fact that we have never met."

 

Adding: "I never figured her to resort to tacky press just to sell a few tickets. I understand, and I know that the concert market is down where ticket sales are concerned. I really had put her in a different class – higher than that. Finally, no one has been more gracious or complimentary to their peers than I have, and I am confident and secure enough to do so, unlike some others. I wish Ms. Turner all the best, as I always have. Perhaps one day we will meet."

Hateretha was in a class of her own. Lethal pen game, on and off of her songs. Got2BReal was part parody, part documentary.
