FAB TRIBUTE: The GRAMMYs Turn It Out For The Aretha Franklin Tribute

The 53rd annual Grammy Awards started off with a FAB tribute to the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. We've got the video when you read on...

 

Yolanda Adams, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Hudson, Florence Welch, and Martina McBride started off the tribute singing 'Natural Woman' before each got their own moment to sing. Christina redeemed herself after her Superbowl fiasco with a rendition of 'Ain't No Way'. Jennifer Hudson made a strong case to be casted as Aretha in her upcoming film belting out 'Respect'. And Yolanda Adams finished up the solos with 'Spirit In The Dark'.

 

Although Aretha wasn't able to make the Grammys, she pre-recorded a message thanking the group for the tribute. She also thanked Clive Davis, everyone whose sent get well soon cards, and everyone for their prayers.

Here's the video: 

 

We first noticed Aretha lost a lot of weight when she showed up at the Pistons game Friday. Wonder if her 'surgery' was really gastric bypass ?
