OBAMA

Aretha Franklin, also known as “I’m The Queen of Soul-And Don’t You Ever Forget It,” created a big stir at Tuesday’s historic inauguration of President Barack Obama when she appeared on the West Front of the Capitol for an over-the-top performance of “My Country, Tis of Thee” wearing a flamboyant church hat.

She did a helluva of job with the song, but that hat is fug. Sorry, Queen.

Let us know what you thought of Ms. Aretha’s performance.
