  • Gladys Knight Reveals She Has ‘Same Illness’ As Aretha Franklin… (VIDEO) #ArethaHomegoing

    Aug, 31 2018 | Written by ATLien

    Gladys Knight revealed some sad news today while attending services for Aretha Franklin at Greater Grace Temple in Detroit.

    [FLASHBACK: New Face. Who Dis? Gladys Knights Reveals Fresh New Look… (PHOTOS)]

    Knight, 74, made a comment to a reporter as she entered the church, stating that she suffers from “the same disease” as the late Aretha Franklin.

    Details + video below…

    While attending a memorial service for Franklin on Thursday, Gladys Knight said she and the Queen of Soul, who died of pancreatic cancer on August 16, bonded over their mutual illness.

    The singer spoke with Detroit news station WDIV about ‘good times’ she shared with Franklin, but she also revealed a shocking similarity between the two:

    “We shared the fact that we had the same disease.”

    While Knight, who is known as the ‘Empress of Soul’ didn’t name the illness, many have assumed that she also is suffering with cancer.

    Knight also spoke about her illness with Us Weekly earlier this week at the USTA Foundation Opening Night Gala, stating:

    “We all have our days.”I mean, we have absolutely no control over that. The Lord tells us where we are going and tells us when we are coming.

    So I?m not overly upset about it, and he knows how much each one of us can bear, and he calls us home with those things in mind. That?s the way I feel about it, because he loves us like that.

    Aretha Franklin’s golden casket was officially closed on Friday morning as friends and family members gathered around to say their goodbyes and her homegoing service streamed live from several major news outets.

    Dignitaries and celebrities alike filled Detroit’s Greater Grace Temple Friday morning in a funeral that was fit for the “Queen of Soul.”

    For the record, Knight?s publicist Javier Delgado denies reports that Knight’s statement meant she had cancer, stating to Rolling stone:

    Gladys does not have Pancreatic Cancer,? Knight?s rep confirmed to Rolling Stone. ?She is fine! She?s healthy. Someone must have misinterpreted.”

    When asked about Knight’s comments, Delgado attempted to clarify stating:

    I?m not sure. Maybe she meant she feels her pain. But she does not have cancer,? and said the pancreatic cancer report was ?incorrect.?

    What are your thoughts about Gladys Knight’s comments?

        PART 2 (see previous post) — Listen closely to t PART 2 (see previous post) — Listen closely to the words that came out of Colorist Claudia’s own mouth. Again… can someone please point out where I’ve ever LIED on this woman??? When have I ever played the victim?? And how on earth did her being a colorist get to be about Nene Leakes?? Colorist Claudia is delusional and for those who are wondering, she left this lengthy voice message via DM to one of my subscribers (a complete stranger to both of us) who innocently asked her why she won’t take accountability for her words. I’m done beating this dead horse but after over 15 years blogging, one thing I have NEVER done is lie. When you find one, let me know. Until then, I’m always gonna call it how I see it whether you like it or not!!! #straightfromthea #atlien #atlienlive #claudiajordan #foxsoul #rhoa #bravotv #teagif #colorism #blackhistorymonth #truthhurts
        PART 1 - Is it MY fault that colorist Claudia Jord PART 1 - Is it MY fault that colorist Claudia Jordan has continuously said colorist hateful things?? Her words have all been caught on tape but she has always placed the blame on someone else. First it’s her “boyfriend” who leaked a tape of her saying racist, colorist things and then it’s me, a blogger who GOOGLED the colorist hateful things that she’s said. When does she take accountability? I’m confused. Instead of playing the victim Caren Colorist Claudia, perhaps you should address the colorist racist things that you say and continue to say online. Don’t worry, just like you have a platform, so do I. And I will keep my foot on your neck for as long as you continue to accuse me of lying on you. WHERE IS THE LIE???? #straightfromthea #atlienlive #foxsoul #claudiajordan #colorism #teagif #rhoa #bravotv #blackhistorymonth (let me know if y’all want me to post part 2 if this clip)
