Ailee, who interpreted what was meant to be a compliment the wrong way, complained, "I worked hard on my diet." The guest who had made the comparison, a so-called expert on astronomy, quickly elaborated, "When you see Ailee, you know she's got explosive vocals like Beyonce. I wanted to use the expression of the Elephant's Trunk nebula because the mic stand looks like an elephant's trunk." And with that simple explanation any previous misunderstanding was cleared up.
