Tina Turner was an American rock singer, actress, and author, renowned for her powerful blues-soaked voice and often referred to as 'The Queen Of Rock 'n' Roll'. Born on November 26, 1939, in Brownsville, Tennessee, she passed away on May 24, 2023, in Küsnacht, Switzerland, where she became a citizen in 2013, relinquishing her American citizenship. Turner began her successful career in the 1960s with hits like "River Deep, Mountain High" alongside her husband, from whom she separated after enduring years of abuse, as detailed in her autobiography "I, Tina". A&M Records is credited with relaunching her career in the 1980s, leading to iconic singles such as "What's Love Got to Do with It" and the album "Private Dancer", which reestablished her in the mainstream. She also gained recognition for her roles as 'The Acid Queen' in "Tommy" and 'Aunt Entity' in "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome". In 2008, Turner came out of semi-retirement to embark on her "Tina!: 50th Anniversary Tour," which became one of the largest ticket-sales tours of that year. 'Rolling Stone' magazine has celebrated her as "One of the greatest singers of all time," achieving unprecedented success in stadium-filling rock.
