TIL THERE WAS YOU: PAUL MCCARTNEY INSULTED THE QUEEN MUM, 1963 #paulmccartney #thebeatles #royals

Please see the comments posted on the video. Some of you may not know why Paul opened this song with those remarks. Quick summary: Paul performed this song only because the Queen Mum asked him to. He was not on good terms with her. Paul wanted to hit Mum below the belt, sooooooooo He decided to make a FAT LADY JOKE about Sophie Tucker. Sophie was a favorite artist of Mum’s. Sophie also recorded this song. Are FAT LADY JOKES insulting?
