Bump Beyonce from the spotlight

Please stop writing about this talentless young lady [“Beyonce: Lady Sings the Blues,” by Geoff Boucher, Nov. 16]. She cannot act, nor can she sing without shaking her butt. She speaks without a lick of intelligence. She is not a role model for young black girls. She has not worked hard. Her pushy parents have put her in the front while stepping on others’ careers. I am so tired of the media making her out to be more than she is worth.

Beauty queen pop-lightweight Beyonce is portraying Etta James in a movie. Whew! That’s a good one. Wait a minute, I can’t see, let me wipe away the tears of laughter. In times like these we really need some comic relief.
