Remembering Tina Turner for not only all of her music but the impact that she created with her fans.
Anna Mae, also known as Tina Turner was born on November 26, 1939 with a voice that later would reach millions of people nationwide. She was considered the Queen of Rock N Roll, with her biggest hits such as, What’s Love Got to Do With It & River Deep – Mountain High.
Most know her from her marriage with Ike Turner, when she was the lead singer of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue before she became a solo artist and created a fanbase that absolutely adores her.
In 1984, she launched her album Private Dancer which became a multi-platinum and also won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year. What’s Love Got to Do With It became her first and only number one song on the Billboard Hot 100. But she later became the oldest female soloist to top the Hot 100s, at the age of 44.
She has sold over 100 million records worldwide and has become the best-selling recording artist of all time. But she just wasn’t an outstanding musician, she was also an excellent actress as well.
She starred in movies such as, Tommy, Mad Maxx Behind the Thunderdome, What’s Love Got To Do With It, I, Tina: My Life Story.
