INTERVIEWER 1:
I wondered sometimes
33
00:01:57,150 --> 00:02:01,120
if anyone has approached you
to do the story of your life,
34
00:02:01,141 --> 00:02:03,090
which is indeed fantastic.
35
00:02:03,111 --> 00:02:04,191
TINA: (CHUCKLES) Yes.
36
00:02:04,210 --> 00:02:06,191
But I don't want to play
the part.

00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:08,051

I just really don't want to play
the part, you know what I mean?
41
00:02:16,051 --> 00:02:17,111
No, you don't know what I mean
42
00:02:17,131 --> 00:02:19,060
'cause you'd have to know me
to know.
43
00:02:19,081 --> 00:02:22,160
It was just so unlike me,
my life,
44
00:02:22,180 --> 00:02:25,041

to know about it, I mean...

it'd be too painful or too--
46

TINA: Ah, it wasn't a--
It wasn't--

you did this interview
61
00:03:19,220 --> 00:03:23,041
with People magazine where,
for the first time, really,
62
00:03:23,060 --> 00:03:25,220
you spoke openly
about your past with Ike.
63
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,030
Yeah.

you had around the decision
66

-to be public about that?
-About my past?
67
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,051
PRODUCER: About your past,
but also, I guess,
68
00:03:38,071 --> 00:03:42,131
-about the abuse specifically.
-Yeah. Yeah, that was quite...
69
00:03:42,150 --> 00:03:44,160
nerve-racking.
Actually, I called my psychic
70
00:03:44,180 --> 00:03:47,051
and I said,
"What's gonna happen?"
71
00:03:47,071 --> 00:03:52,021
'Cause I was really apprehensive
about giving the story away,
72
00:03:52,041 --> 00:03:56,201
because it was telling,
it was really telling.
73
00:03:56,220 --> 00:03:58,191

74
00:03:58,210 --> 00:04:01,060
it's going to do
just the opposite.

CARL ARRINGTON:
In the early eighties,
77
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,220
being in People magazine was
the equivalent of going viral.
78
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,051
We had 30 million readers,
79
00:04:11,071 --> 00:04:14,060
and if somebody wanted to reach
a lot of people,
80
00:04:14,081 --> 00:04:19,021
there was really no bigger place
to go than People magazine.
81
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,210
I was the music editor of
People magazine for many years,
82
00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:27,170
uh, and this is
the December 7th, 1981 issue,
83
00:04:27,191 --> 00:04:31,030
when Tina decided
to tell her story.
84
00:04:31,050 --> 00:04:33,100
And it was the first time
she'd told the story
85
00:04:33,121 --> 00:04:34,230
in public to a journalist.
86
00:04:35,191 --> 00:04:37,251
So, um, this is the story.
87
00:04:38,030 --> 00:04:41,061
I reported it and wrote it
for People magazine.

00:04:43,111 --> 00:04:47,050

I lived 16 years with a man

that I knew there was no way
I could ever be happy with,
106
00:05:43,220 --> 00:05:46,100

I had to stay there.

to make it publicly known.

to just tell it

from Memphis,
275
00:15:41,111 --> 00:15:45,021

she practically raised him,
you know?
276
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,050
And, um, one night,
we was coming from
Chambers, Mississippi, playing,
277
00:15:48,070 --> 00:15:49,131
and, uh, BB,
I asked him, I said,

"Man, can we play a song?"
And he said-- he said, "Yeah."
279
00:15:51,190 --> 00:15:53,241

should be recording."

552
00:30:04,201 --> 00:30:08,110
Like any Black artist in
America that do, uh, any tune,
553
00:30:08,130 --> 00:30:11,040
it has to go, like, top ten
on the R&B charts

before the top 40 stations
will touch it.
555
00:30:13,110 --> 00:30:16,120
And "River Deep," uh,
was not a Black record,
556
00:30:16,140 --> 00:30:19,080
you know, and so it wouldn't
make the top ten on R&B charts,
557
00:30:19,100 --> 00:30:22,060
and so, therefore, the top 40
radio stations wouldn't play it.
558
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,161
But where in England, they, uh,
they listen to the record,
559
00:30:24,181 --> 00:30:27,151
and if the record
is an R&B record,
it's an R&B rhythm, you know,
560
00:30:27,171 --> 00:30:29,080
if it's rhythm and blues,
it's rhythm and blues,
561

and if it's pop,
it's pop, you know,
