'Cadillac Records'-Gate Already Quashed

Bale-gate might have lasted an entire week, but the beef between R&B legend Etta James and Beyoncé Knowles, who played the rough-hewn singer in “Cadillac Records,” barely lasted 48 hours.

Can’t you take a joke says James? “I didn’t really mean anything,” she told the New York Daily News. “Even as a little child, I’ve always had that comedian kind of attitude. … That’s probably what went into it.”

She did however, admit to being slightly “miffed,” for not being invited to sing. She was “feeling left out of something that was basically mine, that I had done every time you look around.”

Ok, so it’s a semi-apology, semantics. Maybe she realized black on black crime just ain’t cool. File this beef under: done. It wasn’t that exciting anyhow. Hopefully Beyonce keeps her mouth closed so we don’t feel obliged to follow up.
