It's not the actual car referenced in the little chestnut "Freeway of Love," but this Mary-Kay pink 2008 Cadillac CTS signed by Aretha Franklin is hitting the auction block in Los Angeles today. The funds will benefit MusiCares, an organization set up by the Recording Academy (the Grammy people) to provide humanitarian support to musicians that need help. That doesn't mean getting a speech therapist for Ozzy, it's more like helping folks still trying to rebuild their lives after Hurricane Katrina. The event is part of the MusicCares 2008 Person of the Year tribute that will honor Aretha Franklin, and we'd much rather have a pink CTS than a Cimmaron, which was the entry-level Caddy during the song's day on the charts. We'd take it in black, and load R-E-S-P-E-C-T onto the audio system's hard drive immediately.
Yeah, everybody on here should go out and bid on that thing. After all, Brittany, and Amy Winehouse could use your money to help defray the cost of rehab. With all of the money that the music industry has, let them help their own. Don't you guys get really tired of people who already have a bundle of money begging those who don't to cough up cash. There is no way that musicians can spend the billions that they make now so why can't they give to the needy musicians of Katrina. After all, did those Katrina affected musicians not chose to live in an underwater city. Really getting tired of people asking for handouts when they chose to live in harms way. Now if this were for the Hurricane victims in Tennessee, I would be all over it.
