When I look at these old sitcoms, I understand why Tina left the United States of America. She renounced citizenship of the racist, prejudiced and misogynist homeland. It's obvious that being a non-American when seeing scenes like these, the media there never got tired of pestering Tina and the more she talked to try to detach from the past, the more the media wanted to see her discomfort. Shameful. The comedy reverses roles, makes Ike the nice guy and Tina the crazy woman. Finally she got tired of the Homeland of TRUMP. And she left for Switzerland forever. She did well...
Tina used the media to her advantage. She continued to talk about Ike for decades and profits off the narrative she sells with her projects. Even Tina's recent documentary film spends most of the time dwelling on Ike. Ironically, the narrative of the film is that despite leaving Ike and becoming successful on her own she can't escape the shadow of her past. You can't complain about the media revictimizing you when you do it to yourself.
Imagine wanting to have the last word on your own life but your own fame and celebrity status gets in the way. Shoot, I’d move to Switzerland permanently too❤️
@@willmallory9316 The interviewers were and are constantly asking about it. Because such a story - whether you are a TV station, a magazine or a newspaper sells more. Tina's life after the late 1970s was constantly getting better. That's not selling anything. And Tina is not the director of a documentary about herself. But what kind of documentary would it be to exclude this part of her life? And furthermore the American culture is structured by this vs-mechanism. Whether it's Prince vs. MJ, Britney vs. Christina, Marvel vs. DC - If yoiu're a fan of someone, you automatically are pushed to be against another artist, product or something. You have no choice. It's making more money.
@@erikcortez8207 and you’ve seen Will slap plenty of people, but Ike never denied his dramatizations and even admitted to slapping Tina in interviews. One example is a video on RU-vid called “Ike Turner Interview.” It’s under the username GingerSpice414. I may have seen dramatizations, but it doesn’t mean that it didn’t happen and that he wasn’t notorious for it…
@@josephsuarez9594 Ike maintained that the movie was a lie. He admitted he and Tina had fights and hit each other but there are a lot of inaccuracies in the movie. For example, the infamous cake slapping scene never happened in real life. The children Jackie and Frost were completely made up. Most musicians and singers who worked with Ike say they didn't witness violence and speak about a positive working experience. It's the movie that made him notorious for violence. Ike was a respected bandleader. He couldn't sue for defamation because he had unknowingly signed away his rights. He wrote a book in 1999 titled Takin' Back My Name: The Confessions of Ike Turner. Here is an interview of him defending himself with his then-wife Jeanette Turner. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OpSH1UZACR8.html
@@erikcortez8207 it seems like this is a rabbit hole, one that I would intricately like to go down. First, I would like to say that even though other people’s perspectives on Ike Turner’s disposition and characteristics vary from person to person, it doesn’t mean that he didn’t have a dark side. That’s like saying that you’ve worked with someone professionally, but you have never seen another side to them personally. Secondly, as for suing, even though he may have not been able to say anything specifically on the record, he sure didn’t deny anything. Also, one of Ike’s wives, Audrey Turner also experienced turmoil just like Tina did. This is from her memoir, “Love Had Everything to Do With It” in where she rationalizes the abuse that she experienced. Yes, movies may be embellished for entertainment and sensationalism, but there is some truth behind the scenes. He repeatedly admitted to slapping Tina and he says this in his own autobiography that you’ve already named (page 175)…I did exclusively refer to slapping, but not other forms of violence. So, even though you want to push me into that narrative, yeah…it’s not gonna work.
If Lawrence Fishburne and Angela Bassett didn’t star in What’s Love Got To Do With It, Debra Wilson and Orlando Jones could have.👍🏽 It would’ve been more funnier!🤣😏
That movie was dramatized. It made Tina Turner and Ike Turner look like caricatures. Tina said she doesn't even like the movie because it's inaccurate. She was not anyone's punching bag. Many people have said Tina was a strong and aggressive woman. Ike also wasn't as bad as he is portrayed.
Ike Turner served 18 months in prison for a drug conviction. He was released in 1991. He rebuilt his career and won a Grammy the same year he died at the age of 76 in 2007. He was found unconscious in his bedroom by his ex-wife Ann Thomas. Ann was a close friend of Tina's. Ike had a daughter with Ann during his marriage to Tina. He later married her in the 1980s.
The only thing funny about the skit was Debra Wilson doing the Tina dance to the door. Ike's appearance was in extremely poor taste, even by MadTv standards.
I usually never get hurt by comedy, nothing can shock me. But maybe because I'm such a fan if hers and have read both her books several times, this kind of feels wrong.
Do you realize the movie was a terrible representation of real life? Not saying Ike was a wonderful person, but it was wildly exaggerated! But go on and have no sense of humor whatsoever
He did admit to slapping her & BOPPING HER IN THE FACE & it did come out that SHE DIDN’T OWN ANYTHING REGARDING THE IKE & TINA BRAND…see people point the finger at Tina a lot, but fail to mention that it took her 8 years after leaving him & the record company to rebrand & reimage her self as a solo, WITHOUT HIM! Plus when she left him certain venues sued her and she had to do shows to pay these venues! But naw “Tina a sell out, she changed her sound changed her look, so she can be white” 🙃
@@kenrickeasonI love Tina but that movie was extremely false. They made it look like she was a virgin when she got with him but she had a baby by his bandmate.
