Of all the great black actresses/singers out there this is who they pick to play Etta James.  How sad!  This will be one bad movie now.  One Beyonce is not a good actress and two her voice is completely wrong.   Why not Jennifer Hudson far better actress and singer and she totally has the look and presence to pull it off.  I know the movie is about Chess Records, but Etta James was big part of that, really people, bad, bad choice!
