Watch This: Christina Aguilera Sings “At Last” at Etta James Memorial

etta x tina Watch This: Christina Aguilera Sings At Last at Etta James Memorial

Share your thoughts on Christina’s performance with me on Twitter.

Never mind whatever substance that is dripping down her leg.

With more vocal runs than Mariah Carey listening to her favorite Teena Marie Pandora station while jogging trails at Runyon Canyon, Christina Aguilera gave Etta James a rousing send-off on Saturday at the City of Refuge Church in Gardena, California by performing the late R&B legend’s signature ballad, “At Last.”

Stevie Wonder also performed three songs, including “Shelter In the Rain” and a harmonica solo for the family members, friends, associates and several hundred fans who attended the two-hour service.

Rev. Al Sharpton, who officiated at the ceremony, opened his remarks by reading a statement from the President. Try not to shade your Uncle Al’s existence too hard, will you? Everybody knows Weeping Wanda is no flake when it comes to cashing in on loading up on King’s Hawaiian rolls, macaroni salad, sweet tea and mourning deaconesses at repast.

“Etta will be remembered for her legendary voice and her contributions to our nation’s musical heritage,” President Obama’s statement read.

Watch X-Tina and her bountiful cleavage wail Etta into the bosom of her next chapter after the jump.

keyshia doggie funeral QOTD: Would You Host A Memorial Service For A Pet?

The pride of Frankie’s uterus, daughter Keyshia Cole, recently uploaded a picture to Twitter of her mourning the passing of a four legged friend at a funeral service. Would you host a memorial service for a pet? Here’s how C+D’s Facebook fam answered:

I cried Tebow tears when I found out my dog died. But nah, bury Khujo in the backyard. — Shauntè

Yeah. I just lost my 2nd cat and it hurts really bad. Pets become a part of your family. — Torria

I have children, and hamsters only live for like 3 hours. So yes I would. — Lajaalma

Not sure if I would hold a memorial service but I would pour out a lil Kibble for my dead homie. — X

It hurt like hell when I had to put my cat down. I had her from 2nd grade until after I graduated college! But a service with her body lying there? FUCK NO! — Patricia

Would you take a pic of it is the question. What the hell is that? Where I grew up you dig a hole in the backyard and call it a day. People find any reason to waste money. Please forgive me I’m not a pet person. — Tiffany

Would anyone hold a memorial service for me? Now that is the question. — Alex

Wiz Khalifa: “The Biggest Misconception About Amber Is That She Wants Attention”

amber rose wiz Wiz Khalifa: The Biggest Misconception About Amber Is That She Wants Attention

To sell ass is human but to understand the circumstances behind it is divine. No matter how many times pictures of her immaculate vagina are leaked online Wiz Khalifa is standing beside girlfriend Amber Rose in support.

“I could see if that was what she was doing while I’m with her or something like that and it was in a disrespectful way, but it’s nothing like that. It’s not even, like, the pictures or her past is a raunchy past,” says the rapper in the latest issue of Sister 2 Sister magazine.

“She did what she had to do. There’s plenty of powerful women who overcame that, and that’s what she really is, an example of what work and faith in God, you know what I’m saying, can get you into a positive situation. You can make a positive out of a negative,” he said.

“The biggest misconception about Amber is that she wants attention,” he later continued. “Everybody thinks that she does stuff for attention and that she loves attention, but she’s really, really reserved and shy. She just gets attention ’cause she’s dope.”

Rewind: That Chris Brown Performance Everybody Is Talking About

From Kanye making his glorious comeback as a negro Moses wearing the Ten Commandments around his neck to Prince’s facial expressions, the 10th Annual BET Awards were filled with welcomed surprises.

One of which caught me off guard was The Rabid Beaver from Tappahannock dancing for his life during his tribute to Michael Jackson. While performing a medley of hits from the late King’s catalog, Chris Brown reached his breaking point during his final selection — “Man In The Mirror,” emoting so much he couldn’t sing a single note.

I think that Chris tears were real but he was not only crying for Michael, but his own mistakes.

Mo’Nique’s Brother Admits To Molesting Her On Oprah

Gerald Imes, the brother of Oscar winner Mo’Nique, said he decided to appear on Oprah Winfrey’s show today to apologize to Mo’Nique and bring their family back together. “I can only hope by coming forward that somewhere down the line, with the apology and the truth finally coming out after 37 years . . . That as siblings, we can come back together as brother and sister.”

“I abused and betrayed the trust of another sibling, my sister, my blood sister,” Imes said. He apologized to the actress, saying, “I’m sorry, Mo’Nique. I’m sorry.”

He added, addressing his sister as if she were there: “It happened. I’m sorry that I was the one who did it to you. I understand your pain. Now let’s share this together.”

The actress did not comment on Imes’ admission. Winfrey said that while Mo’Nique did not want to be interviewed for the show, she gave the talk host her blessing. “She said if your expressing what you had done to her could save one family then it would be worth it,” Winfrey told Imes.

Imes said he himself was molested and he was using drugs and alcohol at age 11. The drugs weren’t an excuse,” he said. “They just afforded me the opportunity to do the things that was (sic) in the back of my mind that I always wanted to do.”

Rewind: Tiger Woods Gives Raw Emotion In New Nike Commercial

Before the 2010 Masters tournament, Nike decided to produce an ad for their biggest cash cow (and serial philanderer), Tiger Woods. Included in the commercial was the necessary ingredients for a public reprieve: black and white color scheme, sad puffy face, and a voiceover from an omnipresent figure.

I guess hoe shit is the new come-up for 2010.
