<p>I&#8217;m willing to bet Aretha Franklin is actually more tired of seeing and hearing about her now-famous <a href="http://hellobeautiful.com/your-world/arethas-inaugural-crown-in-demand/" target="_blank">Inauguration hat </a>than we are. After all, homegirl was really just trying to keep her head warm in a stylish manner. But apparently it&#8217;s following her everywhere she goes &#8211; even her birthday!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s right, the singer celebrated her 67th birthday with a cake made out of &#8211; you guessed it &#8211; that damn <a href="http://hellobeautiful.com/your-glam/arethas-hat-flying-off-shelves/" target="_blank">Luke Song</a> bow hat. I wonder when she&#8217;s finally going to say, &#8220;ENOUGH!&#8221;</p>
<p>Are you as tired of seeing her hat as I am? Either way, happy birthday, Aretha!</p>
<p><strong><em><a href="http://hellobeautiful.com/your-world/audio-aretha-franklin-speaks-on-inauguration-hat/" target="_blank">Here</a>&#8216;s what Aretha herself has to say about the whole craze. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>In fact, the hat has gotten so popular, even the <a href="http://hellobeautiful.com/your-world/even-the-smithsonian-wants-arethas-hat/" target="_blank">SMITHSONIAN</a> wants it!</em></strong></p>

<p>SERIOUSLY?!<span id="more-75831"></span></p>
<p>It looks like we&#8217;re gonna have to quit clowning the Queen&#8217;s hat over here, since it&#8217;s apparently the hottest shit on the block these days.</p>
<p>We <a href="http://hellobeautiful.com/your-world/arethas-inaugural-crown-in-demand/" target="_blank">mentioned last week</a> that calls were pouring in for Franklin&#8217;s custom-made hat by Luke Song of Mr. Song Millinery, but after selling thousands (THOUSANDS!) of this glittery lid, Song has decided to create a Queen-inspired collection of 12 hats in various colors and bow sizes.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re not kidding.</p>
<p>Says <a href="http://stylenews.peoplestylewatch.com/2009/01/26/aretha-franklins-inauguration-hat-inspires-a-line-of-toppers/" target="_blank">People</a>,</p>
<blockquote><p>While Aretha&#8217;s hat was a customized version, Song will be responding to demand by producing a collection of 12 hats in a variety of colors and bow sizes, priced from $150-$220. The Aretha-inspired collection will be shown during February&#8217;s Women&#8217;s Wear in Nevada trade show in Las Vegas. The company sells its hats in over 500 U.S. stores. and while they usually doesn&#8217;t name their toppers, this collection will be named after the singer herself.</p></blockquote>
<p>Want one of your own? Go to <a href="http://www.mrsongmillinery.com/Spring%2004%20Collection/index.html" target="_blank">mrsongmillinery.com</a> to order.</p>
