Etta James, 71, whom Beyoncé portrayed in the movie "Cadillac Records," bashed Bey at a live show.
"You guys know your president, right?" she asked the crowd amid cheers (listen to it here. "You know the one with the big ears? Wait a minute, he ain't my president, he might be yours, he ain't my president. You know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song -- she's gonna get her a-- whipped. The great Beyoncé ... But I can't stand Beyoncé. She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' president day ... singing my song that I've been singing forever."
Not too long ago, the two were spotted happily posing together at the "Cadillac Records" premiere in November.
In a post-inauguration chat with the New York Daily News, Etta's son insisted she was delighted by Beyoncé's performance.
"She thought it was great," said Donto James, who explained that his mother wasn't feeling well enough to travel to Washington, D.C. "She's gotten emotional, just like everybody else. ... She was honored."
