The Queens of Music Brawl

So, the Queen of Soul and the Queen of Rock have never simultaneously shared the same castle. Amazing.

Seems they don't share a mutual admiration, either.

In particular, Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul appears to want the exclusive title of music queen. That ain't gonna happen. The music world has many thrones for its queens. Aretha needs to learn to "Respect" that.

While the 68-year-old Tina Turner is still out there kicking up her 20-something looking legs, Aretha at 66, looks like she ain't "Never Loved a Meal" the way she loves a buffet.

Is it me, or is it very sad to see Aretha looking like one of the multiple overweight characters in an Eddie Murphy movie? Or did Aretha star in the movie, "Norbit"?

Recalling her hits, it's obvious she was singing of her fascination with food. While standing in line at the buffet, she found the inspiration for, "I Knew You Were Waiting," "Jump to It," "I Dreamed a Dream," "What You Eat is What You Sweat," " Dr. Foodgood," " Save Me," "Chain of Foodstores," "The Weight," and "Gravy I Love You."

Furthermore, who is her fashion consultant that allows her to wear spaghetti strapped dresses? Can't they see that the spaghetti straps sink into her flesh and make her look nauseatingly nude? Someone needs to be slapped.

There is definitely room for multiple music queens, but Aretha has physically outgrown her throne.

Well, don't hold back Ron. I love Aretha's music, but I do think she has a case of the (hmm clears throat) big head! ( :
