Roseanne Barr is mourning the death of music legend Etta James in an odd way: by talking $hit about President Obama and Beyonce. Basing a round of criticism on Obama asking Beyonce to cover the James classic “At Last” during a 2009 inauguration ball, Roseanne Tweeted yesterday: “I lost ALL respect for Obama when he dissed Etta James in favor of Beyonce,” later adding: “I have not listened to anything Beyonce or Jay z has said or recorded since they did that to Etta. Their arrogance was disgusting.” Roseanne, who actually just had a pilot picked up by NBC , then focused her rage on those who dare to support the new mother of Blue Ivy, writing: “Beyonce’s fans are really ignorant-she should not be proud of entertaining drooling mutants!” Soon after Beyonce serenaded the Obamas with “At Last,” James herself also called her and the President out – but both she and Roseanne appear to be missing a crucial point: James did not originally record the song, either. Her version was a cover of a cover. [Photos: WENN.com]
