Aretha Franklin is still not saying what ailed her, but she did say that she has dropped down to a dress size since she sought medical help for an undisclosed ailment. According to Us Weekly she said she’s slimmed “down to a rockin’ [size] 16-18. It’s getting better every day. I plan on keeping this weight that I have now — I’m so happy with it.” Hopefully now that she has the dropped the weight, she will continue to drop down.
Especially since the doctor told her she just added another 15-20 years to life by getting corrected what ever that mystery ailment was!
The advertising people behind Snickers are back with a new ad and you don’t have to be a diva to love it! Seriously I never thought they could top the Betty White/Abe Vigoda ad, but I think they came close with this commercial with Liza Minnelli and Aretha Franklin. I can’t wait to see what they do next.

It is time for the Kentucky Derby and that means one thing…time for big hats!!! In the case of Star Jones, the hat wasn’t big enough because you can still see her face. When it comes to the hats worn by Kim Kardashian, Danica Patrick, LeAnn Rimes and Aretha Franklin they are nothing compared to Star’s. But I am curious why Aretha didn’t wear the hat she wore Inauguration, now that was a hat!
Seriously can Kelsey Grammer's heart handle looking at Aretha Franklin's chest like that? I think if he were standing in front of her and being able to see her upskirt too, that would be it for Frasier?
Aretha Franklin is wondering why the Grammys people had Beyonce call Tina Turner The Queen when she is the Queen of Soul. People got this statement from her.
"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, 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."
I thought it was weird when Beyonce referred to Tina Turner as The Queen, but I couldn't figure out why until I read this story. Granted I got bit by the flu bug and everything is coming to me much more slowly.
But back to Aretha I agree with her, she is the Queen. I can't wait to hear what the Recording Academy has to say about this.
