Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted February 14, 2011 I never thought I'd see the day when Aretha Franklin weighed less than Christina Aguilera. I'm calling shenanigans on these claims that she hasn't got pancreatic cancer, she's like the black Patrick Swayze up out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Estuarian Float 97 Posted February 14, 2011 Anyone catch this Grammy's tribute to her? Her tits are lower than Emma Stone's voice these days. ...And was she given her tribute before or after she denied her cancer? This could be key info... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,684 Posted February 14, 2011 Talking of the Grammies, this chick was talking even more gibberish than your average entertainment reporter. Though I suppose Jo Whiley gets away with it every day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted February 14, 2011 Talking of the Grammies, this chick was talking even more gibberish than your average entertainment reporter. Though I suppose Jo Whiley gets away with it every day. I agree with every word she said. Come to think of it she could have sung quite happily alongside Dylan here at about 5 mins 30secs.

Though I suppose Jo Whiley gets away with it every day. It was, according to her physician, a 'complex migraine'. Not sure about Jo Whiney though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted February 24, 2011 Franklin to give her first interview since surgery next week. She's not well enough to go down to the studio to do it, but the best thing here is the interviewers claims that Franklin is one of her three dream subjects, "along with Michelle Obama and Fergie". I dunno if it's worse if she means the toe-sucking simpleton or the piss-stained Black Eyed Pea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted March 1, 2011 Folks on the TMZ article are suggesting it was gastric bypass surgery, which would rather take the wind out of the weight loss.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bert Trautmann 58 Posted March 1, 2011 Well, whatever the problem is, she's starting to look like a wasted pick. At least I didn't pick Michael Douglas... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted March 11, 2011 Apparently her 75lb weightloss in two months wasn't cancer or a gastric bypass, but rather "cutting out fatty foods". Fuck this yatch, seriously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted March 13, 2011 Apparently her 75lb weightloss in two months wasn't cancer or a gastric bypass, but rather "cutting out fatty foods". Fuck this yatch, seriously. If she has had some minor surgery, I'll take a punt on it having been a hysterectomy on the grounds she does not want to discuss it publicly. Now I'm no expert on these matters but I would think, even if it were a total whip out job the "chunks" would weigh no more than 5 to 10 lbs... So where was the other 65 to 70 lbs lost from? I'm baffled... I think Monoclinic needs to put forward a view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
