Excerpt:
You know you’re in for a cultural facepalm when a tribute to one of America’s greatest rock legends turns into a viral punchline. Over the weekend, on September 27, 2025, the folks in Brownsville, Tennessee—where the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Tina Turner, was born back in 1939—unveiled a 10-foot bronze statue meant to honor her legacy. Instead, it’s sparked a firestorm of mockery online, with fans and critics alike calling it an “abomination” that looks more like a cartoonish knockoff than the fierce, leggy icon who gave us hits like “Proud Mary” and “What’s Love Got to Do With It.” Seriously, if Tina were still with us, she’d probably belt out a protest song about this mess.




I'm not sure that the person who created this newly unveiled statue of Tina Turner was ......"Simply the Best" person for the job!
