Aretha Franklin comes bearing gifts for the Obamas
Aretha Franklin gave more than a good show to President Barack Obama. In addition to siging “My Country, ‘Tis of Thee,” the singer gave him a collection of sermons by her late father, the Rev. C.L. Franklin.
Her spokeswoman, Gwendolyn Quinn, said Franklin gave him the 17-sermon collection, a biography of her father and a Bible “engraved with a personal message.”
For the new First Lady, Franklin came bearing a gold brooch with diamonds and her 15-year-old grandson, Jordan Franklin, gave Obama daughters Malia and Sasha a collection of gospel/Christian hip-hop music.
