<Ul> <Li> In the film, Tina's constant friend, "Jackie" (played by Vanessa Bell Calloway), was a member of The Ikettes who left the Ike and Tina Turner Revue after a violent blowup with Ike in a roadside restaurant . In actuality, this character was fabricated for dramatic purposes . This fictionalized character also visits Tina in the hospital after her attempted suicide and later introduces Tina to Buddhism, chanting "Nam Myoho Renge Kyo" in front of the Gohonzon . Turner never mentioned a friend named Jackie in her autobiography; this single character apparently represents an amalgamation of friends from Turner's past, including members of the Ikettes and friends from the band's entourage . </Li> <Li> When Anna Mae Bullock sees Ike Turner and his Kings of Rhythm perform, Ike is shown as the front man . The real - life Ike Turner had stage fright, and though he was a band leader and organizer, he often had other performers, particularly male singers, fronting the band . </Li> <Li> The original vocalist behind "Rocket 88", sung by Laurence Fishburne as Ike in the movie, was Jackie Brenston . </Li> <Li> During Anna Mae's first performance with Ike and the Kings of Rhythm, Ike is shown playing guitar . But both Tina and Ike have stated Tina sang after being given a microphone by the band's drummer, while Ike played piano during an intermission, rather than during a live performance as illustrated in the film, though she did later front the band the night she began singing with them . </Li> <Li> A reenactment shows Tina recording her first song, called "Tina's Wish," on the film's soundtrack . However, this song is actually a re-recording Tina made of an old Ike and Tina song, "Make Me Over," from the Ike & Tina album, Nutbush City Limits (1973). Tina's first recording (as "Little Ann") was actually singing background on one of Ike's songs, "Box Top". </Li> <Li> During the scene where Ike and Tina are scheduled to perform at the Apollo Theater in 1960, the bill lists Martha and the Vandellas and Otis Redding as fellow headliners . In reality, Martha and the Vandellas hadn't formed yet, several of them were performing in another different vocal group called the Del - Phis, while Redding had yet to record his first single and was fronting several bands . </Li> <Li> The film shows Tina giving birth to Ike's son, named Craig, but in reality, Craig Turner was Tina's child with another man, Raymond Hill . Hill was a member in Ike's band . Tina gave birth to Craig when she was 18 in 1958 . Ike and Tina's only child together, Ronald Renelle Turner also known as Ronnie, was born on October 27, 1960 . </Li> <Li> The film depicts Ike and Tina getting hitched after the birth of their son Ronnie in 1960 when in reality they married two years later in 1962 . </Li> <Li> While Tina mentions that there were accounts of Ike's abusing her, Ike never pushed cake in Tina's face leading to a food fight in a diner . That scene in the film dramatizes an incident Tina Turner accounted in her autobiography, which describes that while waiting for food, a waitress gave her cake . Though Tina said she hadn't ordered it, Ike told her to eat it . </Li> <Li> When Tina performs at the Ritz, the film has the timeline at 1983, and the host announces her arrival as her "debut solo performance". However, Tina had first performed at that theater in 1981 . Also inaccurate was the film's portrayal of Ike's visit to the theater, where he failed at silencing Tina with his gun . In truth, Ike was never at the Ritz; he had not been seen in public for years following his and Tina's divorce in 1978 . Ike had remained in Los Angeles, estranged from Tina for quite some time by 1981 . The film's loose depictions do, however, capture the reality that Ike made multiple dangerous attempts to get Tina back following her divorce suit, in which he did threaten bodily harm, and Tina bought a gun to protect herself from Ike and his friends at the time . </Li> </Ul> <Li> In the film, Tina's constant friend, "Jackie" (played by Vanessa Bell Calloway), was a member of The Ikettes who left the Ike and Tina Turner Revue after a violent blowup with Ike in a roadside restaurant .
