Etta James Dies, Beyonce Honors Her On Website
Beyonce Mourns Etta James' Death With Tribute
Having stayed in hiding since the birth of her baby daughter Blue, Beyonce took to her website to give a statement on the passing of Etta James, the legendary singer she played in the film “Cadillac Records.”
She wrote:
“This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime. Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her music inspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear her pain and triumph. Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed.”
Fellow legend Aretha Franklin also wrote: “Etta James was one of the great soul singers of our generation. An American original! I loved “Pushover,” “At Last” and almost any and everything she recorded!!! When Etta SUNG, you heard it!”
