ICONIC SONGSTRESS TINA TURNER GONE AT AGE 83!

According to CNN
Legendary singer Tina Turner has died after a “long illness,” her family said in a statement on Wednesday. She was 83.
Known as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” Turner’s mega-hits include “Proud Mary,” “What’s Love Got To Do With It” and “The Best.”
She began her career as the lead singer of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue with her ex-husband before becoming a solo performer.
Gloria Gaynor, Ciara and Mick Jagger were among those who offered tributes to the iconic singer.

The White House called the death of Tina Turner “a massive, massive loss” on Wednesday after learning of the rock singer’s passing.

“Tina Turner was an icon, a music icon who had many stages, many amazing moments in her career,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said. “Very sad to hear the news. I was a huge fan of Tina Turner. As you can see from my reaction, that is the first I’m hearing of it. And it is a massive loss, massive loss to the communities that that loved her, certainly to the music industry.”
Jean-Pierre added that Turner’s music “will continue to live on” and expressed condolences for her family and friends.

President Joe Biden has expressed his love previously for Turner’s song “The Best,” and included it on a summer listening list in 2016.

In an interview in 2020, he said “Simply the Best” was his favorite backstage or walkout song and that it reminds him of his wife Jill.
