BEYONCE: EFFIE, ETTA, AND EARTHA?

Don't get me wrong.  I love me some Beyonce.  I dance to "Get Me Bodied" every morning in the shower.  I have all her albums.  And I defend her against any smear campaign that is used to make people think she is not talented - - musically.   But Beyonce's acting brings me to tears!  And not in a good way. After getting snubbed for the Effie role in Dreamgirls, Beyonce is now out to portray any character with an "E" at the beginning of their name.  First in a biopic on R&B Soul Crooner Etta James, and now ABC news is reporting that Beyonce has gotten the go ahead and has been cast to play singer/actress Eartha Kitt in an upcoming biopic about the singer’s life.  I would prefer Taraji P. Henson.
