Aretha Franklin – who announced at the top of the year that she and her “forever friend” William “Willie” Wilkerson (better known as Catfish around these parts) would wed this summer – cancelled her fitting at David’s Bridal and gave hearts around the world blue balls in one fatal swoop this afternoon with four little words: The wedding is off!

The iconic singer, 69, and Wilkerson are discussing tying the knot on Miami Beach, with an exclusive reception aboard a private yacht.
And for her dress?
“Ms. Franklin is considering Donna Karan, Valentino and the queen of wedding dresses, Vera Wang, to design her gown,” says her rep.
Franklin lost 85 pounds last year after a health scare and told PEOPLE, “I feel fabulous.”
Adds Franklin herself of the upcoming nuptials: “We’re looking at June or July for our date and no, I’m not pregnant, LOL!”

If the person looking over your shoulder just came out of pocket and said “Crackheads are always stealing” roll the wheels of your office chair over their toes and go home for the rest of the day — I would!

Quick Quotes: Raven Symone, Aretha Franklin, & Shaunie O’Neal
”I thought I looked fabulous before and nobody else did. So, whatever. Actually, now I wear bigger clothes because I don’t like the way people stare at me. I liked it before. Now, you’re just looking at me for the wrong reasons. Before, you were actually looking at me for a real reason.”
Say A Little Pray For Aretha Tonight
Aretha is going to have to take a break from throwing her chesticles over her shoulders like a continental soldier for a while. Damn you, gravity!
Aretha Franklin fell in her bathtub and has canceled her entire August schedule, City Hall Bureau Chief Adam Lisberg tells me. He writes:
This is bad news not only for the Queen of Soul, but for two city pols.
She was supposed to introduce Charlie Rangel at his big birthday fundraiser, and now she can’t.
And she was supposed to play shows next Monday and Thursday in Marty Markowitz’s concert series, and now she can’t.
Get well soon, Ms. Franklin.
