The Beyhive had Carlos Santana calling for “Maria Maria” and whomever else he could after the attack.
During an interview the Australian Associated Press (via THP),Santana said that Beyonce’ didn’t win “Album Of The Year” category at The Grammy’s because she is not a “singer”.
“I think that Adele won because she can sing, sing,” he said. “With all respect to our sister Beyoncé, Beyoncé is very beautiful to look at and it’s more like modeling kind of music ― music to model a dress ― she’s not a singer, singer, with all respect to her…Adele can sing, sing. She doesn’t bring all the dancers and props, she can just stand there and she just stood there and sang the song and that’s it, and this is why she wins.”
Since being stung by the Beyhive, Santana has clarified his statements on his Facebook page. He says his comment was taken out of context.
“I would like to clarify a comment that was reported when I was doing an interview for some upcoming shows in Australia & New Zealand. My intent was to congratulate Adele on her amazing night at the Grammies. My comment about Beyonce was regretfully taken out of context. I have the utmost respect for her as an artist and a person. She deserves all the accolades that come her way. I wish Beyonce and her family all the best.
Carlos”
The power of the Beyhive!
