ABC News is reporting that Bust It Creole has received the green light [uh huh huh huh, green means go!] to play legendary sex pot Eartha Kitt in a biopic of the singer’s life.

Here’s what my friend in the head Clay Cane had to say about things:

Etta James and now Eartha Kitt are roles that could make a career for an up and coming actress. Also, isn’t it a rule that once an actor plays a real life character in a movie they should be avoiding additional biopics? That would be like Jamie Foxx playing Sammy Davis, Jr. Beyonce has already portrayed Diana Ross (I don’t care what ya say, Deena Jones is Diana), Etta James, and now Eartha Kitt. What’s next — Harriet Tubman?

Yes, Beyonce is a great performer, but an actress she is not. Eartha Kitt was a child conceived by rape, born on a cotton plantation in South Carolina, and rose to fame the old fashion way, hard work—while suffering awful sexism and racism. Her career was practically ruined for being an outspoken advocate of the Vietnam War and she allegedly made the First Lady at a White House luncheon in 1968 burst into tears. Nothing about Eartha’s life story will Beyonce be able to pull off. Bey doesn’t even know how to drop her George W. Bush Texan accent—how is she going to manage Eartha’s South Carolina/pseudo-European accent?

I’m counting down the seconds until Papa Knowles shows up in Clay’s comment section raising hell and high water. Do you think Beyonce has what it takes to portray Eartha Kitt?
