The intro to the Tina/Beyonce performances was horrible, just horrible.
That shit sucked in a major way. If they wanted Beyonce to do a tribute, they should have just had her do an a capella of those legends for 10 minutes, instead of that garbage.
How do they have Tina Turner performing Proud Mary and no mention of Ike until the dead-guy slide show.
That was a bit upsetting, surely she could have given him a shout out, I mean she must have loved the dude once upon a time....
No Ike, no Tina. If she was that set against a mention then restrict the performance to solo stuff.It's not like she hasn't had a lot of hits on her own. De-Ike-a-fication of the worst sort...

Yeah, it was sort of understandable until she busted out the Ike & Tina track, then I was like "oh come on now, for $%#$% sake"!
I know I already mentioned it, but Willie Mitchell people! Willie y'all, one of the most important folks in ALL of soul music won a grammy(his first, which is Frickin' ridiculous) pretty much the only redeming factor of this year's grammys...

I know its cool but isnt this just their yearly Dudes We Slept On Catagory.
seriously. I was ranting about them over on waxidermy, but those dudes don't like girls as much as records so it was a little lost on them. Her legs are OUTSTANDING.

It'd be all like driving through the redwoods in Northern California...

For the sake of who or what? Ike looking down from heaven? Propriety? Respect? Good taste?
I am not saying his death should not be acknowledged or his contribution go unmentioned, but leave Tina Turner out of it. She obviously wants to move on and stayed moved on. I know this isn't the best way to put it, but it is as much her song as it was his.

"Mr. Turner shall not be referenced while you perform Tina...."
"Good - I keeps it separate...."
She still freezes dude out and for good reason.

is there a youtube or text wrap-up of this floating around?
always the best part of the show (same with the Oscars).
I know that sounds fucked up; It's not though.

Is that all Ike Turner has been reduced to?
Of course not. But why is Tina the one who has to carry that torch? There are other ways to honor Ike without making Tina do it. C'mon now.
I wouldn't expect Ronnie Spector to give props to Phil either.
Of course not but Tina prefers to keep their entities separate. And for good reason.
Most people know the story already so there is no real need to always attach the two...IMO.
Agreed, but then why do 'Proud Mary'?
Beyonce+Pop+familiarity
You ask who did "Proud Mary" and most folks will say "Tina Turner".
Deal.
