She was unstoppable. She was unsinkable. And she always did the unthinkable! These three principles were the defining force behind everything Tina did. From her outrageous “Cave-Woman” Shredded mimi skirts, her huge wigs, her unwavering spirit, and please don't leave out her very “Riské” antics on stage. No one could out giggle, out gyrate, or out Butt-bump Tina.
However, anyone who was close to her will instantly tell you that it wasn't that way from the start. You see, Tina was a very shy, self conscious, and often too soft spoken for her own good. In truth, it was her initial inability to self advocate that nearly cost her everything. Even nearly her life.
But then came the shift. That pivotal moment when she was cast down into the deepest depths of the Abyss. When all the stars went dim, and she felt as though she was entombed in utter loss for all eternity.
It was at this point that she made a decision that would skyrocket her to unimaginable heights of fame, power, wealth, and ultimately, true love.
And what was this vow? What was her passionate Soul plea for salvation from the personal hell she had found herself in? It was simply a vow to never again let anyone keep her from being fully, unapologetically, and authenticity herself.
When Tina proclaimed, pronounced, activated, and unleashed these life changing Truths, the world began to look like a virtual paradise. But this time, she held the keys to the kingdom. Tina said that never again would another person control, dictate, nor dominate her life. And as they say….. The rest is history! Tina’s history!
