BET Honors 2014

I was at the BET soundstage watching Ray Chew and the band rehearsals. Aretha Franklin was working on her rendition of "A Change Is Gonna Come" for the Mandela tribute. It was so moving it just blown me away as it did for Jennifer Hudson sitting near by.
Than Jennifer blown away too got up to go hide with her people so intimidated to meet Ms Franklin. Ray saw her and called her over to meet Ms Aretha from there I don't know what it was like for Jennifer.
When I went up to Ms Franklin to tell her great her rehearsal was, she asked me my name I said Thomas. If she would keep the conversation going I would have been a blubbering mess "Ms Franklin I love you!" how embarissing that would have been.
