Aretha Franklin’s granddaughter, Grace Franklin, is opening up about her American Idol audition in which Katy Perry got up and walked away. The 16-year-old was not invited to continue on in the singing competition, a decision that shocked viewers, and the “Electric” singer judged so much she walked offset.
“I’m a good artist, I know that,” Grace, joined by her dad, Aretha’s son Kecalf Cunningham, told TMZ, “but I do know that I need to work on some things.”
