Marie Adams (Ollie Marie Givens, 19 October, 1925, Linden, Texas - 23 February, 1998, Houston, Texas) was an American rhythm & blues singer. Known affectionately as TV Mama (the one with the big wide screen), by her colleagues in the Johnny Otis band, singer Marie Adams never aspired to sing professionally.
