    Rock'n Roll queen Tina Turner passed away at home in Switzerland after battling a long illness. She was 83.

    I'm so glad I got to see her live in Taipei with Brian Adams opening for her...she was a legend, an inspiration for women who suffered abuse and a talent that will survive her passing. What a voice and what a presence on stage. RIP to a lady I long admired. Tina could rock the house! Private dancer is a masterpiece

    Angela Bassett got robbed of an academy award for her portrayal of Tina. She was brilliant in it

    I remember seeing her doing "Proud Mary" on the Ed Sullivan Show when I was a wee lad. At the time, I thought she had the prettiest legs I'd ever seen.

    She has those great legs all her life. And voice. And heart.
