This photo was so popular it was given the name "An Almost Unguarded Moment" by photography company Laister Dickson, LTD. The name of the photo was based on the peaceful, serene look on Tina's face. This is an April 2, 2005 file photo of singer Tina Turner preforming Parken Stadium in Copenhagen. A yearlong bicentennial celebration of beloved children's book author Hans Christian Andersen drew to a close Tuesday, Dec. 6, 2005. But it was hardly a fairy-tale ending. The celebrations peaked on April 2, the 200th anniversary of Andersen's birth, with a televised rock concert featuring singer Tina Turner, Olivia Newton John and opera soprano Renee Fleming. The show at Copenhagen's Parken stadium left organizers with a 13 million kroner (?1.8 million; US$2.12 million) deficit, partly because of a US$1 million (Euro 810,000) fee paid to Turner.
