@Jake Phillips I saw in another interview that they wanted to portray Tina as using a lot of profanity in the movie. Angela Bassett, who potrayed Tina, asked her about it because she didn't think Tina swore. Tina confirmed it and Bassett pushed back at them and refused to do it. Hollywood, some nerve!

ReturnoftheBrotha okay sis nobody says colored anymore this isn’t 1963 😂😂😂

She cut her own wigs which is why it looked so unique.

All her wigs were made by her

Mj Pren couldn't have said it better myself

Tina Turner is my idol and my role model 💛🤗, I loved her ever since I was a kid, and I'm 35 now, and I still listening Tina Turner she's on my MP 3 player, all of her music is on my phone too I love Tina dearly she's awesome👏✊👍 💛🤗

+classanddignity Ike was a coward straight up and down

They made each other famous. He gave her the name Tina Turner and gave her a platform for her talent to shine. She brought the dynamic stage presence but Ike put the band and the music together. He was a talented musician.

Yes Tina was the star:-)

1993 PERIOD

Why do you think he beat her so much? Because he knew she could make it on her own without him, in fact, companies wanted to sign her and her *only* .

TTArchive Good because even though it’s a well acted movie, there wouldn’t be so many ignorant jokes out about Ike & Tina.

TTArchive How do you figure? The song isn’t about their relationship.

@@a.b.sproductionsllc Ike would have had basically complete control of their songwriting and covers. What's love would not be the type of song Ike would have recorded. Tina wasn't even a fan of it at first herself.

Hi Rita it's me Suzette Bennett now in lonely Los Angeles. Email me lily-suzyq@hotmail.com

Ike threatened Raymond Hill (Craig's father) so he left the band and ran away... It's not like Tina was needing Ike's "help", she already had a way of living, and, really, imo she would have found other band/singer to join even if she wasn't with Ike and his band :)

@Lady Day because they had the courage to have their babies so young outside a marriage, I can only admire them even more.

@@miracabral Ike did not threaten Raymond. Raymond broke his ankle wrestling with a bandmate then returned to Clarksdale. Tina had a job as a nursing aide, but that didn't pay much. She was a single mother at just 18 and had bills to pay. She was living in a garage in a dangerous part of town. She asked Ike for money. Ike helped her financially and let her move in with him. Maybe someone else would have discovered her or maybe she would have just remained a nurse with a great voice. A lot of talented people are never discovered. The fact is there wouldn't be Tina Turner without Ike Turner. Their paths crossed for a reason. They benefited from each other.

Oh damn

@Lady Day she wasn't hiding it. If you read the book it's in there. As she said once you sell the rights the person producing the movie has the right to do the movie the way they want it put out there.

I always wonder if she actually kept the last name in her personal life..I would think she'd not want to.

@@gypsygirl9 she fought to keep her stage name bc thats how people knew her. It's why most actresses keep their maiden name or a husbands name b4 they got famous.

So do I but I've had it ever since the movie, so long that it's on a cassette tape, my favorite song on it is; 🎵Stay Awhile🎶, and, 🎵Tell me why must we wait until the night🎶

How come?

@@ProudNutbush well it seems to me That she was angry that people talked about the abused she suffered! I personally thought she would have been a lil more (for lack of a better word) understanding of peoples curiosity..I mean the world wouldn't have known if she didn't tell It. There is absolutely NO DISRESPECT in my opinion. I personally think she shoulda shot him in the head,, then again had she done that then I woulda never have been able to see or hear her WELCOME ME TO ANOTHER EDITION OF THE THUNDER DOME🤩🤩🤩🤩

hiddenuareand willremain Hahahah right on 👍👍

Lol..omg...Larry is usually what guys named Lawrence go by. Like the name Maggie is nicknane for Margaret

I've read all her books including I Tina. Nowhere did I see that?

Uh…. It makes sense that the mother would sell her out…. She walked out on her when she was ten years old… the grandmother raised her….

Denise Barnes-Klesic yeah seeing her abused was so sad

She wrote the book so people could stop asking her about Ike. She thought that explaining the entire situation would answer peoples questions.

​@@alex_n215And you believe that?

Jerjer B “We Don’t need another Hero” that’s the one

🤦🤦🤦 Clearly so did he? He proposed and she felt she couldn't say no because of the person he was. What do you mean "come on"? 😅 Saying yes to an abuser in hopes of delaying further abuse warrants that said abuse?

I ain't your mom but let it go and help people

you can ... if you allow it , he has won honey . You need to let it go . Otherwise he still has power over you . Contact me if you need. Have gone through it long time ago.

@Virginia Neil: *You don't have to forgive him! In fact, I don't think you should. Fuck forgiveness!!! He needs to pay. I'm so tired of people and forgiveness!*

@Virginia Neil. As someone has said on here, please let go and forgive. Forgiveness has nothing to do with him, it has all to do with you. It frees you whereas unforgiveness holds in a cage. See Tina Turner’s attitude here, the fact that she let go and forgave and moved on, she was able to soar. Think about it you he may have moved on, but, you are letting what he did to gave a double or multiple effect on you. He 1st time it actually happened and the subsequent times you are holding onto it. I hope you are able to forgive, let go and soar.

G Q shut up you absolute fool. Get yourself educated on her life story. Before making comments. She was a teenager. He abused and beat her in unimaginable ways. He would beat her before going on stage just because he could. He was a vile man. He didn’t deserve her. She is way way way above him, yes he found her but he was nothing without her. She always was great and then she became a worldwide phenomenal singer and performer and he was just a waste of fucking life. Yes he had a troubled past but it does not excuse the way he treated this beautiful, loving outstanding woman . He is A pig of a human.She deserved the happiness and success and he deserved what he got... shame he didn’t get more. Sick man ike Turner was.

So you're a virgin and you hate all women because no one wants you. That's exactly how you come across.

@@mybiz2167 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 you sound like a man hating feminist.. you all need to stop with the idol worship. Anna Mae took advantage of an opportunity. If it wasn't for Ike she would be back in Nutbush

Actually, the cake thing did happen, just not the way it was shown in the movie. A cake ended up on the bill and Ike made her eat it even though she said she didn’t order it. The rape scene may not have happened, but he still raped her. Any time someone makes you have sex when you don’t want to, it’s rape. She had no money or control. How does someone reach the level of success she did with him, and still not have a bank account? That’s control. If you read the book, they were friends and didn’t have any interest in each other until he decided to put sex into the equation. And Tina never made herself a victim or to be naive and innocent, the public did. Ike even contributed to the book. He also gave interviews where he admitted to slapping her or punching her down to the ground without thinking. No matter how right or wrong the scenes in the film were, it’s undisputed that he put his hands on her and abused her. She didn’t leave because she understood him. They both had troubled childhoods and she promised never to leave him like other people did, because she was abandoned by her own family.

Yes I hate Tht

Projecting yourself? Says more about you.

@@amandawallace2507 Amanda says what?

😳😳😳 For speaking her truth about abuse? Movies are dramatic reenactments. Not everything is going to be 100% accurate and she didn't direct this film. Regardless of how exact the abuse is portrayed, the abuse still happened.

No one is? Does not excuse the abuse.
