Nick Cannon has revealed that he wants to dress up as Ike Turner for Halloween.
The singer said he thought it would be a great idea.
But he said that Mariah Carey is less than impressed with the idea of dressing up as music legend Tina Turner – as she fears the plan could offend Turner.
He said: “I want to be Ike and Tina, but she [Carey] doesn’t want to offend Tina Turner.”
Cannon, 29, added: “I think it’s an honour.”
Blues singer Ike – who reportedly died of a cocaine overdose in 2007 – became known more for his stormy relationship with former wife Tina Turner than his music.
In his 2001 autobiography, he admitted: “Sure, I’ve slapped Tina… There have been times when I punched her to the ground without thinking. But I have never beat her.”
what an idiot! Who would want to imitate an abuser, any time of the year!
