Teena Marie RIP
Permalink   

Ex Motown chanteur Teena Marie has passed away at 54 years old.

No disrespect to Teena, but yet another national Newspaper, the (UK) Daily Mirror, gets it wrong again with the following opening statement:

Teena Marie, who made history as Motown's first white act has died.

No mention of Chris Clark, Kiki Dee, R Dean Taylor or that 6 piece blue eyed soul band who's name escapes me. Ooh, now what were they called? Was it Earth, Wind and Fire or Rare Bird? Something like that anyway.

A 6 piece blue eyed soul band eh? What a concept. Writers should do research before writing. Teena wasn't even the first white female on Motown.

Just goes to show that some writers are just plain idiots...Was Teena Marie Black?..I always thought she was...there I go...Rare Earth was thought of being Black as well..Ah maybe there is your answer maybe the writer thought they were blackbiggrin
Mmmmmm???
