Aretha Franklin Shuts Down Ridiculous Rumor


Earlier this week reports from a satire website went viral claiming Patti LaBelle had been arrested for attacking Aretha Franklin at the airport in Atlanta.

Aretha Franklin sets the record straight…

The Tom Joyner Morning Show reached out to Aretha Franklin after the rumors hit a fevered pitch and she assured him nothing could be further from the truth.

In a statement to Tom Joyner Aretha explains,
“I’ve never heard anything crazier—regarding myself and Patti allegedly fighting on March 20, in Atlanta. On March 20, I was in New York City readying for my birthday Patti (Sorry. LOL. Laughing at my typo error). I meant PARTY, which we all had one fabulous time. Patti and I are cool and we always have been. I enjoyed her at the White House. Classic Patti.”
