Скачать или смотреть Tina Turner tells presenter 'You're gonna d*e early!'- Rare interview with Oprah (2008)

Denise Valdez interviewed Tina Turner and Oprah Winfrey backstage at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in May 2008.

Tina and Oprah were in town to record a live stage version of The Oprah Winfrey Show. The show featured a memorable performance in which Tina and Cher joined forces to sing “Proud Mary.”

The trio delved into topics like sleep and work habits during the conversation. At one point, Oprah asked Tina what time she typically woke up. Tina revealed she usually started her day at 1 p.m. This led Valdez to share her own routine as a morning news anchor, waking up at 2 a.m. after just six hours of sleep. Tina reacted with a playful but pointed comment, quipping, “You’re gonna die early,” while Oprah chimed in, urging Valdez to prioritize more rest.

Tina Turner had a long history with Las Vegas, dating back to her iconic 1971 performance with Ike Turner at Caesars Palace. Over the years, she returned for major shows, including a concert at the Thomas & Mack Center in 1993 and two nights at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in 2000.
