Aretha is ready

Tuesday, January 03, 2012



NEW YORK (AP) — Aretha Franklin says she's ready to tie the knot with longtime friend William "Willie" Wilkerson.

Franklin told The Associated Press in a statement Monday that the pair was considering a summer wedding, perhaps in Miami Beach, Fla. The Queen of Soul wants to follow the ceremony with a reception on a private yacht.

The 69-year-old jokes, "No, I'm not pregnant."

Franklin didn't say whether the pair had gotten engaged and a representative didn't immediately reply to a message seeking clarification.

The Grammy-winning singer is considering Vera Wang, Valentino and Donna Karan to design her dress.

Franklin has been married twice before.
