Seems she had plenty of time for chit-chat or she wouldn't have done the interviews... What she didn't have time for is the stupid and absurd questions that reporters tend to ask.
what song would you like to Adele to do Aretha Franklin: hopefully one I wrote😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣. Ms. Franklin wanted that publishing check rest peacefully queen
as my grandmother say you say what's on your mind you can get away with it because of age and as you get older you just don't have the patience and you definitely see that in her
I remember watching a biography of hers and a guy was interviewing her at home, after repetitive questions; she stepped away to the kitchen, came back & asked the guy "Are you done because I have to finish cooking?"
This was possibly the greatest thing i've seen on RUclips in a LONG time. LOL omg, she didn't care, she could give no fucks, she was hard of hearing, she was tired. She was ALL OF IT! What a diva.
This needs an award !.. Too funny.. It was all over when a Aretha said " I do a what ? " at 1 :41 with that expression on her face, lol... This is priceless.
@@cruzlane9448 Oh snap, good one!!!!! I like that one 😂 LMFAO!!!!! I don't blame her, I would be irritated also. Rest in peace 👼 Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin 😢💔🌹. Take care of yourself and your family during this coronovirus pandemic 😷 ok. Peace out from Bunn NC.👋💖😏😀.
Agree, but she makes a really charming appearance on What's My Line on 9-9-1974. Check it out and she is so slim. She is lovely, though I do not think she liked questions about her weight. She did look dynamite though. She smiles most of the way through and just has a lovely way about her. Maybe as she aged she grew tired of it all...
Thorsten Hauk Conceited? They are literally worshipping her! She has a disgusting attitude. She would probably dismiss any compliment you gave her as well.
PHOENIX MINISTRY , she's was up in age. I watched my mothers attitude change like that with her own children b4 she passed also.At that age u have to be direct and to the point bcuz at that age they have little patience for nonsense.
Aretha has always been straight to the point! It has nothing to do with her age! Everything you get from her is 100% Real somebody said that since she only had 4 hours of sleep she should have canceled the interviews. But when you are trying to promote a new cd you gotta do things even if you don't want to...Aretha is not new to this....its not her its the stupid reporters.
"Why'd you want to take those particular songs on?" Well Mr. Clive Davis the chairman of RCA bought the concept to me...... wait a minute that music is kinda loud in the background. Can you here me? "Yes we hear" Can you hear me? "Yes I hear you" Well darn it I can't hear myself turn that music down...can you turn it down! This woman was straight to the point and knew what she wanted and I don't think some could handle that and she may have even been misunderstood at times for it. She didn't mince words at all and at times she is called "shady" but I think this woman was no nonsense and matter of fact. RIP Ms. Aretha!
Over the past few yrs & after seeing TV mini series ARETHA : GENIUS, with Cynthia Erivio....i Truly understand Ms Franklin....& Appreciate & Admire her forever more. Years ago i thought she was a little short with folks, I was wrong...she was clear, sharp ...to the point...a no nonsense person....
They could have made sure they had Better connection. You can tell she was Definitely Upset with not being able to hear the questions. Queen Aretha dont play lol
For one she had been up since early early in the morning. There is always a delay to the sound because she has a ear piece and can't see them so she can only hear them.
"If you could see adele cover one of your classics....which one do you think she could pull off?" ..."well....hopefully one I wrote and published" Lmfaooo the SHADE!
iluvsoulmusic She assumes and implies Adele doesn't write her songs which is why she slipped in that comment. And Aretha has written plenty of songs herself so I don't know where you're getting that from.
iluvsoulmusic She wants a cut of the royalties, that was the joke. Aretha has written very few of her songs, but Adele should have let other people sing her songs because she's average at best
iluvsoulmusic Aretha at 70+ years old is obviously way out of her prime, however when she was at her best, she was one of the best. Adele on the other hand, at her best is very average.
It's really strange how people take something as innocuous as what she said and turn it into her throwing shade. But, when people try to hunt for something they'll find it even if it isn't there particularly when they are trying to prove their point of view.
She SPECIFICALLY requested that she be interviewed by WENDY WILLIAMS, though. Ms. Franklin wasn't only an artist, she was also a fan of media personalities whose work she respected and would often place surprise phone calls to them while they were on the air.
This is painful to watch! Whoever thought it was a good idea to have an 80-year-old woman doing a remote satellite interview?! These interviews are always tricky. No-one can see each other...there is a five second delay...the conversation never flows smoothly...
These people acts just plainly stupid. Today's TV format wants them to be overly cheerful and bland and she makes it right to show them that honesty and intelligence is what matters the most. All that fake compliments are not real compliments to her so why she must be grateful for it? A message to presenters: Please take that 'pose' out and focus on what you say. Fakeness overruled the media.
When I was working for BET and was in rehearsals during the Honors and she was being honored with Barry Gordy, I was warned not to go into the room where she was because she was being a B-word. I should’ve trusted my first mind and ran in there anyway. I’ve never listened to anyone I don’t know I did then. Guess I was afraid of being embarrassed by her in front of people. One moment in my life I wish I could have back to actually had experienced a moment with her good or bad.
@@JefersonSantos-bt1ef , I `ve heard some not so good backstage stories about Patti Labelle and I`ve heard lots of good backstage stories about Aretha .
She didn't mind telling them when something didn't seem right. She was like "can you turn that down?" and she asked them again to turn that down, lol..Then when they finally turned it down. She said Thank you.
ROTFLMAO 🤣 🤣🤣 🤣🤣 🤣 she wasn't moved by compliments... exactly how it should be....... Queen...👑💅.....the shyt is temporary anyway before a person start showing their true hidden intentions....
So do I my friend 👋, hi how are you doing? Well I hope, my mom named me after her, she is a huge fan of hers since high school 😀. I don't blame her for getting irritated with those idiots 😠👎!!!! You tell them off Queen!!!! Rest in peace 👼😢💔🌹. Take care of yourself and your family during this coronovirus pandemic 😷 ok. Much love from Bunn NC.👋💖😀
enriquetheprofessor pretty racist remark. I found that extremely disrespectful. Why won't they fire that news anchor. Her racism and implicit bias runs deep. Wow. Can't believe she said that.
@@cmetube You're a dummy and I bet you're not even black. What would you had preferred she call her if she chose not to use her name? Sir? Get a life. 🙄
“Hopefully one she wrote and published” I love her. If Adele does sing an Aretha song, it will be one she wrote and published. Just hope she can pull it off. She has a great voice too.
That one journalist did not have to say OLD ENOUGH when she asked him how old he was. When Aretha Franklin asks you how old you are. You tell her your exact age. You don't say old enough.
"I love you"........."ALL RIIIIGHT... is this Fox 2??" DEAD
