Aretha Franklin Injured In Fall


The Queen of Soul - who not too long ago conquered the Mann Center - fell and injured herself Sunday, the Detroit News reports. The fall left Franklin with fractured ribs and two concerts in Brooklyn postponed.

She's won't be sidelined long, she says.

"I was very much looking forward to being in Brooklyn and having a foot long hot dog at Coney Island," Franklin said in a statement. "Hopefully, I will get it before the end of August."
