Singer Beyonce Knowles

A host of celebs hit up the 31st Annual Kennedy Center Honors at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in DC over the weekend.

Aretha Calls Tina Tacky

Posted by Bossip Staff

Aretha politely puts Tina in her place:

“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 (in saying, ‘Her ego must be so big to think she was the only one … that’s how queens are’) clearly she was talking about herself as she described herself as the ‘Queen of Rock’ and saying ‘that’s what Queens do’ — particularly since she does not have a clue as to who I am in view of the fact that we have never met. “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.

We love a good cat fight, but this is like a lion vs a two day old kitten. Although Miss Tina is still looking good and could probably whip some ass, we would suggest not mentioning Re-Re’s name or risk her plopping those Z-cups on you. Ouch.

Aretha Franklin Reduces Number of Chins

Posted by Bossip Staff

Please refer to pics above and below. Now, it is always a challenge when dealing with such astronomical proportions, but we’ll be damned if we don’t think Aretha has lost at least a half of one of her chins. She appeared to be as big as a whale before, but tell us what you think.  ‘The Queen’ was spotted leaving her hotel in NYC yesterday.

Quote of the Day

Barack Obama responds to the Sarah Palin controversy:

Sen. Barack Obama said firmly that families are off-limits in the campaign for president, reacting to news that GOP running mate Sarah Palin’s 17-year-old daughter is pregnant. “Let me be as clear as possible,” Obama said. “I think people’s families are off-limits, and people’s children are especially off-limits. This shouldn’t be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin’s performance as governor or her potential performance as a vice president.” Obama said reporters should “back off these kinds of stories” and noted that he was born to an 18-year-old mother. “How a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn’t be the topic of our politics, and I hope that anybody who is supporting me understands that’s off-limits.”

He’s such a stand-up guy. Any of these other shisty mfers would’ve taken that sh*t and ran with it. But not Barack, he’s a classy fellow. Here he is yesterday at a Labor Day rally in Michigan. YES WE CAN!!!
