We all know that Aretha Franklin is the queen of soul, no one comes close - never has, never will. But a few days after the Grammys, she is making clear that she is not feeling very much, yes, I'm gonna do it: R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!

Why? Well Beyonce - that conniving little diva - had the nerve to introduce the great Tina Turner as "the queen" on the Grammy telecast. Aretha, who sang later in the show, was royally pissed!

She's even released a statement about it: "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."

Aretha, there is room for more than one queen - especially since Tina Turner is the queen of rock and roll. Are you gonna dress down Helen Mirren for playing "The Queen" in a movie? Now get over it and go burn that dress you wore to the Grammys. I wasn't gonna say anything because I love you, but if you're gonna get petty, so am I!

There was no immediate comment from Beyoncé or the Recording Academy.
