After the sad news of Tina Turner’s passing, the producers of “The View” wasted no time in using the event to attract viewers.
The decision by “The View” producers to use Tina Turner’s departure as a hook to boost ratings was made within hours. The hosts of the raucous program emerged from the stage shortly after the horrific news of Ms. Turner’s passing, dressed in outfits straight out of the Thunderdome. They later danced their way onto the stage for Lizzie’s performance of “Proud Mary”.
According to Thomas Bagger, an attorney for the Turner family, “the whole thing was in bad taste” and “they had no right to run a tribute show without first getting permission.”
The song has a famous Tina Turner version, but it’s not her song and it’s not even mentioned in the vocals, so the program claims they have the right to use the music.
Bagger commented: “We still find it offensive that they looked like her and put on Thunderdome wigs; it was obvious they were trying to cash in on her reputation.
Internet rumors claim that Whoopi and Tina weren’t even close friends. In the 1980s, they argued over who would buy In and Out Burger and never spoke to each other after that.
The situation raises questions about the ethics of using someone’s image and music without express permission, especially in the wake of their death. It underlines the importance of respecting the wishes of the artist and honoring his memory with dignity.
While the public debates the appropriateness of “The View” events, let’s remember the profound impact Tina Turner had on the music industry and the admiration she garnered from fans around the world. She was an extraordinary talent whose powerful voice and electrifying performances still resonate with audiences today. Let us celebrate her remarkable contribution while ensuring that her memory is honored with the respect and dignity she deserves.
We were able to find out that Turner enjoyed his burgers with extra onions, though the rumor probably isn’t entirely accurate.
“I love eating onions. It seems logical that a famous American like Tina Turner would adore them. Patriots, I say ‘Amen’ and ‘God bless America.’
I agree with her! This show is nothing but a gossip channel, and is so low when it comes down to real subject matters. They’re like a bunch of old chicken’s plucking away at each other. They should end this show, because it’s become another format for hate! What once was respectable talk has become voltile and nobody wants to see or hear about it.
