Etta James says she was just trying to get a laugh when she threatened to whip Beyonce's azz. "I didn't really mean anything," James said. "Even as a little child, I've always had that comedian kind of attitude. ...That's probably what went into it." And while she said she liked Beyonce's performance, when asked if she thought she could have done better, James answered, "I think so. That's a shame to say that." Miss Etta did admit to, "feeling left out of something that was basically mine, that I had done every time you look around," she said.
