*Aretha Franklin says she didn't appreciate Beyonce referring to Tina Turner as "the queen" before the duo's fiery performance at the Grammy's Sunday night. Known the world over as the "Queen of Soul," Franklin says she was taken aback upon hearing Beyonce describe Turner using that particular noun. "I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and Beyoncé, however I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy," Franklin said in a statement. "In addition to that, I thank the Grammys and the voting academy for my 20th Grammy and love Beyoncé anyway," Franklin added. Grammy No. 20 for Franklin was in the best gospel performance category for a duet with Mary J. Blige.
