In a series of interviews around the 2008 release of the movie 'Cadillac Records', Beyoncé shares her thoughts about Etta James, whom she portrays in the film.
I will never understand why Beyoncé is compared to Etta, it has nothing to do with her. Apart from that Miss James is the best vocalist in history, especially for her time since no one did with her throat what she did for Etta, because she simply does not look like anything as much as she says she is influenced by her. More influence I see from Etta James in ... for example; Mariah Carey (of which I never heard that it was one of her influences, but you only have to see her music and her record for you to know that yes) and especially Christina Aguilera (who sees her is a little girl of Etta and Mariah and a little of Whitney). So do not say that Etta is better than Beyoncé. Never never. Etta James queen of the vocalists.
Beyonce's acting skills are underrated ..i thought Beyonce did a geat job playing Etta James ..After the Renassiance tour & movie .. maybe in a couple of years hope to see Beyonce back on the big screen acting & playing a leading role
