Aretha Franklin on Her Exercise: ‘I Walk Super Stores — Walmart and Kmart’
Where does a music legend go to get a little exercise?
If you're Aretha Franklin, you think retail.
"I walk super stores -- Walmart and Kmart. ... Yeah, I walk all of them," the Queen of Soul revealed on Wednesday's "Live with Kelly & Michael."
If you're thinking Franklin would be recognized by other shoppers, you're right.
The singer said people often try to come up to her and talk while she's walking, "but I really don't like to break my stride when I'm walking so I just change aisles," she said.
Franklin, a Detroit native who turned 72 years old on March 25, said exercise is a lifestyle change she made after some recent health issues.
Another lifestyle change: overcoming her fear of flying.
"It won't be too long," she said of when she'll travel by airplane again. "I think by the end of the summer."
