Turn the Other Cheek
In the 1970s’, rocker Tina Turner, née Born Annie Mae Bullock, experienced emotional and physical abuse at the hands of her husband and manager Ike Turner. Turner created a reputation as one of the most dynamic performers of her time, while Ike Turner created his own reputation as one of the most abusive husbands in show business. Critics have chastised her for having cosmetic surgery on her nose. Tina retorts that Ike busted her nose “many times” and the surgery was to correct the damage to her sinuses, “So when they went in to correct it, I ended up with…another nose,” she says.
