Just recently found out that rock n’ roll LEGEND Tina Turner was cheated on and abused multiple times by her LV husband Ike. Can’t believe guys actually pull shit like this and then swear up and down they don’t abuse women 😑😡

“I never beat her” but he punched her to the ground 🤡🤡🤡. Fucking disgusting. Goes to reaffirm that being a celebrity is NEVER a guarantee of being a HVM

Punching her to the ground is so instinctual and insignificant for him he doesn't even consider it abuse. What a peach

"I've slapped Tina"

"I've punched her to the ground"

"i NeVeR bEaT HeR"

What a disgusting waste of energy and space.

I’m low key shocked you didn’t know this.

Tina Turner walked out of that marriage with nothing but the literal and actual shirt on her back and her comeback was fucking epic.

That’s the main reason, besides her talent of course, that she got a long and emotional standing ovation when she won Record of The Year in 1985.

I punched her to the ground =/=i did not beat her? That's next level mental gymnastics. All abusers think this way. They all have a line that is set arbitrarily by them, that always without exception puts them on the good side. My ex didn't think he was abusive because he never full on punched me in the face and broke my nose - that was the line in his head between being abusive or not. not the holes in the walls, not the spitting on me, not the pushing me around, not calling me names. Nope - because HE got to set where the line was. All men do this - they all set their own line and put themselves on the good side.

"Sure I beat her, but I never beat her."

If this is what he admitted to imagine what he's hiding. Guilty people often admit to something lesser as a red herring.

Oh yeah: this has been out in the open for decades. Her song What’s Love Got to Do With It is a nod to this.

Knowing her history, I thought it was extremely gross when Jay Z had a lyric that was something like, “Eat the cake, Anna Mae!”

Betty_Bottle · 2021-11-09T07:28:12+00:00

Has anyone watched the documentary "Tina"? In it she describes how he would drag her by the hair to another room, close the door and beat her.

He was jealous and insecure of the attention she would get.

Just this morning I walked in to find my mom watching the movie about Tina Turner where she’s played by Angela Bassett!

I think the first time I ever heard of Tina Turner was in the context of learning about her song What’s Love Got to Do With It and the meaning of it. It was explained to me as an anthem for all battered women.

Sort of sad, actually, that my first (and only, for some time) impression of her was linked to her abuse.

It’s so vile that it’s becoming straight up comedy, imagine if someone said:

“I just slipped and my dick fell into her, I didn’t cheat on you”

“I just picked up the dollar bill and put it in my pocket, I didn’t steal it”

LMAO

Longirl · 2021-11-09T09:52:25+00:00

She took an overdose due to his abuse and he made her perform that night, completely zonked out. He’s evil.

Determinedblonde · 2021-11-09T08:26:10+00:00

What does he think beating is? 🧐

PinkPetalCdistbeauty · 2021-11-09T02:32:23+00:00

I’m sorry, you what? You didn’t know? 😊 I’m so confused. Or old. Or both maybe.

This reminds me of those male college students who through a questionnaire would never "rape a woman" but admit they would rape a woman.

Equal-Ear2312 · 2021-11-09T17:59:02+00:00

how does this make sense?

I punched her to the ground... but I never beat her?

how? I am deeply confused.

DuchessDurag · 2021-11-09T07:34:01+00:00

The sad part of the Ike and Tina legacy is tainted by his poor behaviour. As talented as both were, people only remember their train wreck of a relationship.

Ike could have been a superstar legend along side Tina if only he treated her right.

"I did, I did, no I did not". Logic fail
