Tina Turner - In Her Own Words - Podcast (1996)

tinaturnerblog.com
Few people on this planet have had a life like Tina Turner. There’s been books, documentaries, and even a movie about it. But only Tina can tell the real truth and how she became this bigger-than-life icon. Back in 1996, while promoting the gigantic Wildest Dreams Tour, Tina did a lot of interviews including this in-depth one called “Tina Turner: In her own words” broadcasted on Radio 2. It is more likely a longer interview Tina did with Kurt Loder, parts of it could be found in ‘The Girl From Nutbush’. But still lots of unheard before stuff: going through a lot of topics like childhood, her children, fame, and much more, Tina opens herself and tells it like it is! Enjoy!

I hate that she had to keep explaining her past. This woman’s talent was just superior and that is what I have always personally focused on. I was introduced to her as a solo artist and that is how I experienced and will remember her. I still can’t believe that she sang and danced on stage simultaneously in stilettos at full throttle until almost 70 years old! Rest easy Icon, Legend and Diva Extraordinaire! 👑🎤

[@JesuSaves79]

Indeed 🎉her solo career eclipsed that previous situation as the lead singer of I&TR😮those dog gone reporters were so insensitive about questions regarding her past!!! TinaTheRockGoddess was so gracious in her responses!!!

[@skygazer6898]

IN my opinion, Tina Turner was the best female live performer of all time. No props, just great musicians, dancers, and the wonderful Tina Turner. Best legs in the business too

[@Nina_Olivia]

Tina’s SO GOOD she doesn’t even need music!

[@michemarrs7967]

I saw her in the 80's. In Little Odessa TX. At the beginning of her concert and what's Love Got to Do with It she was phenomenal. Not to gloat . I saw in an interview. No Matter What she wanted to make ppl feel good 😊. Thank you Tina for your Talent. Class. Womanhood. RIP.

I didn't have the opportunity to see this star on stage but my heart flutters whenever I hear her voice.

[@ms.ednapost]

The first live concert my daughter went to was Tina Turner. She and I went together and had a blast! It was the last day of graduate school for me and she went to class with me and we left and went to the concert. She was 14. She’s now 40. ❤🌹🙏🏽🍷

[@suemcknight9051]

Tina Turner embodies all things female to me. She has “arrived” intact after so many difficulties and she is a fascinating finished product of having survived travel on a very rough road. She is talented beyond belief. She is beautiful. She exudes female sexiness. And, as others have mentioned, I so regret never having seen her in person. What an entertainer 💝👌

[@zohar1099]

The voice, smile, eyes, and talent of this amazing woman is pure joy and happiness. Tina Turner is and will always be, the BEST!

[@beautyonabarnbudget]

You know she died 3 days ago right?

[@lavenberry]

I know that she didn't want to talk about her past but it will help so many people hear her story. She had a rough beginning but she persevered through it all and came out on top. The second part of her life was the best. Tina Turner was/is simply the best.

[@reginalahab1059]

I'm so grateful to have seen her in concert, which was a phenomenal experience. Rest In Paradise, Tina ♥♥♥♥♥

# Regina Lahab - like me, yes…?!? That's our best investment we could make the last 60 years...! Yes that's right - Tina was mostly on tour, 🥜 not so often at home - only the last 15 years in her new and elegant home in the Swiss at the Zuerich lake! I met Tina in Prag 1996 in middle football stadium!

[@angelikabertrand4045]

Ww saw the last once in Utah she then retired.

[@kamariatoure42]

Nice! Confident woman. Tina should have been a motivational speaker.. when I am low I listen to her and she literally lifts me up, her story and her words alone. And Tina you are very correct. There is something so magical about being a little black girl who comes from picking cotton and lived with a big bad wolf who didn't give a damn whether you lived or died, & kissing many frogs along the way. Yet you ended up in France and Switzerland with a German Prince that loves you so much he'll give you a kidney. Anything is Possible people

[@reginalahab1059]

Everything you said was accurate except the "picking cotton" part, which is something that Tina never did.

[@lovinglife69]

​@Regina Lahab 🤔 She says in several interviews that she picked cotton. She said she was upset she couldn't pack the cotton down in her bag like the adults could. She wasn't good at it. She said she didn't like it because of the sun and the worms. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@MsMickelin]

I miss her so much and admire her greatly for her personal challenges

[@carinagartner2111]

Ich bin seit 1979 ein Tina Turner Fan! Mit absolutem Respekt, ehrfürchtig! Niemand hat mir in meinem Leben bis heute, werde bald 52 Jahre so viel Kraft, Ausdauer und Hochachtung zum Leben,den Menschen und den Glauben daran gegebenen, dass Träume wichtig sind, dass man oder Frau egal welcher Herkunft, diese niemals vergessen sollten! Tina Turner hat mir in guten und sehr schweren Stunden, egal wo ich auf dieser Welt war, an mich zu glauben!!!! Daher in tiefer Verehrung Carina mit C. aus B.😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@sherrylw6337]

I saw her when I was 16 at the state fsir. Where I was standing was right in her view. I waved at her and she waved back. I will never forget that. I loved her before that, but after that she was always my girl.

[@aliceschram1043]

My regret is never seeing Tina in concert.

[@fritzh.8553]

I saw her five times and her performance has always been like the eruption of a volcano. I saw many concerts of very great stars but there's no one compared to TT. She is simply the best.

[@true1evanique]

Sad to say, I only saw her once in "74" as Ike and Tina. My journey didn't permit me to see her in her comeback years.

Just shows you cant keep a good woman down. Like tried, but went down himself in flames. Tina rose and Bach, gave her selfless love. When you give away your kidney. Endangering yourself in future should something happen to you. That's selfless love. He gave all, love, heart and organs to extend both their lives in happiness. Go Bach. You the man forever. Be proud. You will get past this.

Tina wasn't being totally honest about not liking Ike or wanting to be with him. In Elaine Brown's book A Taste of Power she mentioned a show Ike and Tina did for the Panthers where a near riot broke out and Ike was hit in the head with something and was knocked out with his head bleeding. Elaine said Tina was crying and cradling Ike's head in her lap. Tina cared about Ike, but I think she felt embarrassed for that because he was abusive.

Tina is a great example of quid pro quo she gave up 18 years to Ike in order to be a star just too bad they weren't living by the rooms of the 2000s where they could just say what they were a platonic team, not husband and wife, and still be Stars

[@BeverleyMiller_]

If Ike was not cruel & abusive Tina would have been able to keep her word🤬 Her jaw was broken during all the years of violence...👑Tina fairly surpassed him due to her own talents, efforts and sacrifices

[@runnyhunny786]

I don't know why Tina speaks of Ike with such respect after the way he treated her, like what he made her do with the microphone ( simulate oral sex with it ) during their song " I'm forever loving you ". DEGRADATION & HUMILIATION in front of a live audience I would say. I watched one of the clips and couldn't believe it. The footage of Ike showed he was clearly getting a kick out of it too... Tina said he made her do it - or else she would cop a beating afterwards which is totally believable because he did beat her when not happy when she didn't " perform " how he liked.

[@kisha4040]

@runnyhinny786 Tina speaks of Ike with respect because she's not being truthful. She knows there's more to the story. She threw him under the bus and she knows she was wrong for that.
