Among the photos, performance videos, and other memorabilia being shared online is a clip from a 1996 60 Minutes interview between the late journalist Mike Wallace and Tina at her French estate.

In the clip, Mike and Tina walk around her estate in Nice, France that overlooked the French Riviera.

Though the interview detailed Tina’s life, including her early career and legendary comeback, Tina’s response to one of Mike’s questions about her life at home is resurfacing (like here and here) in light of her death.

“You feel like you deserve all this?” Mike asked, in reference to her French estate.
