SharonStone Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 'They made a mockery of her horrific abuse': Tina Turner fans BLAST Beyoncé and Jay-Z for vile reference to Ike Turner's treatment of his late wife in 2013 hit Drunk In Love Tina Turner fans have slammed Beyoncé and Jay-Z for the reference to the late star's abuse at the hands of her husband Ike Turner in their 2013 hit Drunk In Love. In the track, Jay raps: 'I'm Ike, Turner, turn up / Baby no I don't play / Now eat the cake, Anna Mae / I said eat the cake, Anna Mae' - which led to a fan tweeting: 'a tragic example of #TinaTurner being mocked & her abuse being dismissed. The lyric references a well-documented moment in which Tina, still going by the name Anna Mae, was in a diner and when fans asked for her autograph and not his, he attacked her by forcing cake in her mouth and saying: 'Eat the cake, Anna Mae!' Following Beyoncé's references to Tina being her music idol, Twitter was flooded with anger from fans, with users penning: 'Drunk In Love was a tragic example of the incomparable #TinaTurner being mocked & her abuse being dismissed. Fans took to Twitter in droves, to write: 'I still can't get over Jay Z saying 'eat the cake Anna Mae, eat the cake' on 'Drunk In Love'. When I found out that it was reference to Ike forcing Tina to eat literal cake..a damn shame... 'Still mad at beyonce and jay z for that tina turner abuse reference... I love Bey but she rubs me the wrong way sometimes. How is Tina Turner one of your biggest inspirations but you were ok with Jay Z using that line in Drunk in Love... 'I was so disgusted when I understood the reference. Stopped listening to Drunk in Love for that reason alone... 'Drunk In Love,' was a tragic example of the incomparable #TinaTurner being mocked & her abuse being dismissed... 'While Jay Z sang the lyrics mocking Tina, #Beyonce obviously cosigned Tina's horrific abuse being made a mockery of & put that song on her album... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12123153/Tina-Turner-fans-BLAST-Beyonc-Jay-Z-nod-Ike-Turners-abuse.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
