Tips?

The following was submitted by an anonymous reader:

I was watching X factor the other day and have this theory and strange feeling that Rachel Crow is Beyonce's daughter and Etta James is her grandmother. Rachel has an uncanny resemblance to Etta James. The singing talent has been passed down for 3 generations (usually musical talent is passed down). It is documented and admitted by her adoptive parents that Rachel Crow was a crack baby and her parentage is unknown. Maybe this story was planted and made up to make a believable story of how Rachel surfaced. Clearly, Rachel is being groomed and shows signs of being MK ULTRA like Beyonce & Etta. That breakdown was also a way to catapult her into the Hollywood stratosphere. Also, during the the breakdown, she showed signs of multiple personality & bipolar disorder. I found it very strange that she went from 1 to 10 & screaming to her adoptive mother that winning was promised to her which is also an indication that she is being groomed. Beyonce is a known sex slave for rich white execs & has had many abortions. I am sure she had a baby during her nearly 40 years on this planet & this child was taken from her & passed off as a crack baby & now is being groomed & called the next Beyonce/Etta James. There is no mistake how producers had Rachel Crow sing Etta James "I'd Rather go blind" & Beyonce's "If I were a boy". Just like it was no mistake casting Beyonce in Cadillac Records as Etta James. I believe Beyonce & Rachel have White ancestry & Etta James father is a White man- whose parentage is unknown too. The looks are uncanny between the three & like Etta James who was a sex slave too, she had a child and it was taken away from her and groomed to be Beyonce. Matthew Knowles adopted her or she was given to him & Tina & they raised her has their own. Etta James was high most of her life so I am sure she does not recall giving birth & as much brainwashing going on- it makes sense. Rachel Crow is Beyonce's daughter by a white older man. The TRUTH will come out!

The house includes eight full bathrooms, four fireplaces, an indoor pool, sauna and theater room. There’s also a private lake.

"I was using that rap name when I was like 14, 15. But then, as I got older, 18, I started being in the streets. I ain't calling myself no millionaire running around the streets and I'm hurting, so I just ended up cutting it short to 'Meek Mill,' and I left it at that,"

Currently unknown is how the Canadian rapper Milli Millz came up with his stage name.
