As far as weight wise, Etta was heavier back in the day, so Jade would need to gain more weight for that role. If she could even act. I agree with Ms. Peaches,

Beyonce is also the Executive Producer of the movie and will write 4 songs! Congrats Bee on extending your resume in Hollywood! This is not the whole interview. Etta James actually says she is excited to be working with Beyonce. Etta James is prepping Beyonce for the role and will be personally working with her.

If you caint act, you caint act, no matter how many classes you take. Alot of people are out there being "starvong artists" because all they want to do is act or sing and they cant. Or maybe they can sing, but dont have "star quality". You mean to tell me if you could be put on a top-ranking position at your job (whatever is it you do for a living) passingup all the people who have studied and got degrees in your field, you wouldnt take it. You mean to tell me you'd say "Naw, I'll step aside, I've made enough money" or "No, I'm not that good at this position you're giving me, I'll pass up the six figue salary."Hell no! You'd take that position if it was given to you. I agree with whoever it was that said Beyonce should NOT step aside and give someone else the spotlight. For what. Hater are always like "Why dont she sit down somewhere! Give someone else a chance!" Why should she? I think some people are sick of seeing her because she's a constant reminder of what they lack. @ hellava10:

B is NO actor. Period. I think it takes away from those who have spent their entire lives taking classes, studying, learning their craft. Etta is old school, she is going to speak it just like Aretha did and won't care about who hears it. I miss the good old days where singers sung and actors acted. Do what you do and do it right. B could make extra change by giving vocal lessons to the LHG. Damn, I missed out on this. B is NO actor. Period.

Boy do we complain. Now we have a woman who is (guessing) 27 years of age, who did her first movie, with no experience under her belt, at the age of 20. Her first album at the age of 16 or 17. I don't have an opinion about who good she did in the roles, but I celebrate that fact that we have watched Ms. Knowles, grow up and take a leap into becoming (AND BEING is some people's opinion) a double threat in music and film. You don't read any of the white bloggs or magazines dog her in a way that this blog does. All of this and by all appearences she maintains a since of class, good up bringing, and humblemness. What did she do to Sandra Rose. Between Sandra and Ms. Jones from Hot97. "You guys seem to have a personal issue with this woman" What happened? Why can't she be watched w/pride continue to grow and polish up her crafts, with out putting her down, calling her names. It's mind blowing to read so much of it.
