Beyonce’s dad defends his daughter from Aretha’s comments - 2008-02-18


Beyonce Knowles’ father-and-manager has hit back at public comments Aretha Franklin has released about his daughter's Grammy Awards performance on Sunday. Franklin, who is known all over the world as the Queen of Soul, infuriated after Beyonce called her on-stage partner, Tina Turner, “the queen" during the Los Angeles awards event. Mathew Knowles has said, "Beyonce referred to Tina as a 'queen'. Not queen of gospel, queen of soul, queen of blues, Queen of England."I consider my wife a queen and sometimes call her that. Does Aretha have a problem with that?"
