Katy's Corner - Aretha Franklin's Trashy Gossip

In our season 5 premiere we talked about all the officially official information on the life of the original diva, Aretha Franklin. But what are some of the whispered hot gossip items that went under the radar?
I REALLY REALLY WANT TO MAKE CLEAR THAT THIS IS MOSTLY GOSSIP FROM NON-REPUTABLE SOURCES.  Please don't at me. Also, whole buncha content warnings. 
Contest winner: Erika V! yay!
