Hi Nikki, right about now Etta James realizes the mess she has gotten herself into. It’s really sad that this little fiasco will have such a negative impact on her legacy.

Hi Kathy, I think there is a serious disconnect between very young people and older people who understand the far reaches of technology. I’ve read some blogs written by young women who post waaaaaaaay too much information about their personal lives and sexual exploits. Sooner or later it will come back to haunt them.

Hello! I thought Etta James was dead too. As I replayed the sound bite, I thought to myself..”Who really wants to see her sing the song, and could she really sing it like she did back then anyway…” I think not! I think it was really poor taste for her to make the comments that she made, especially going as far as talking about Pres. Obama’s ear and fighting Beyonce. And she wonders why nobody asked her to sing….

Valerie,

YOU NAILED IT!!!

“Etta James did not understand the power of the Internet, blogs and youtube. ”

Unfortunately, a LOT of people don’t understand how “big” the internet “bulldog” has gotten – until it reaches out and BITES them. Then, unfortunately, they learn that footprints made online are NOT like the footprints left in the sand – they do NOT get quietly washed away. The footprints we leave online are set in cement!
