*Mathew Knowles is a little upset over Aretha Franklin taking offense to his daughter Beyonce using the word "queen" during her Grammy performance with Tina Turner.

      In a statement released Wednesday, Papa Knowles said he will not allow Beyonce to even comment about the uproar.

       "As a manager I am not taking something this ridiculous to Beyonce," Knowles stated. "Beyonce referred to Tina Turner as a 'queen.' Not queen of gospel, queen of soul, queen of blues, Queen of England. I consider my wife a queen and sometimes call her that. Does Aretha have a problem with that?"

      As previously reported, Franklin – known as the Queen of Soul – released a statement earlier this week addressing Beyonce's introduction of Turner during their duet Sunday night. With Franklin seated in the front row, Beyonce told the audience: "Stand on your feet and give it up for the queen."

      Aretha later stated: "I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and Beyonce. However, I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy."

      In his statement, Mathew Knowles said: "Something this ridiculous – it's childish, it's unprofessional. And it's a sad day when egos get bruised because somebody used the word king, queen, prince or princess."
