Tina Turner, the legendary pop and rock icon who defied and ruled an often male-dominated genre and topped the charts for decades, has passed at the age of 83.

From her humble beginnings as Anna Mae Bullock in Nutbush, Tennessee, to her meteoric rise as half of Ike & Tina, to her triumph over an abusive marriage to emerge as the Queen of Rock’n Roll, Tina Turner embodied survivalism and artistic integrity in ways unmatched in the music industry.

Tina Turner died Wednesday at her home in Küsnacht, near Zurich, Switzerland, following a long illness, a spokesman for the singer said. She was 83.

With her signature raspy singing voice and athletic stage presence, Turner possessed a singular kind of star power that has provided a template for generations of younger female pop stars to imitate but never match.
 
Joe Biden statement on the death of Tina Turner:

"Tina Turner? Oh yeah, I remember her. I was in elementary school in Tennessee, and it was a bad school. I mean it was really bad, if you know what I mean. On Sundays I went to a gospel church, and this other kid was there, and she was singing in the choir. Now, there was this bad dude named Soda Pop, and he used to tease her. I said, 'knock that off man!' I kid you not. So, I crept up behind that little girl and whispered in her ear, 'keep on singing sister, and you'll be a star!' She turned around and kissed me after that, and said that I inspired her to sing better. That was Tina Turner. True story, no lie."
 
Don't forget she starred in one of the finest and most iconic bad movies ever made.

An actual strong female character... 30 years before Woke ruined the entire class of such characters by eating the whole bottle of crazy pills and asserting -- with a straight face -- that there is no biological difference between men and women...

RIP

That can’t be true. It was only last year when some young actress was claiming to have broken the glass ceiling by being the first strong female character in a film...

Oh. Excuse me, comrade, I misspoke. Please do not report this incident.
