I’m just going to take a moment to appreciate the shit out of this woman right here. Now listen, this – if you don’t know – is Tina Muthafuckin’ Turner aka Anna Mae Bullock from Nutbush, Tennesse. She is the definition of badass. Not only is she the QUEEN OF ROCK, who has sold more concert tickets than any other entertainer ever (as of now), but she is a domestic violence survivor.
SHE IS A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SURVIVOR.
SHE GOT OUT OF A 14 YEAR HELLISH MARRIAGE AND TOOK NOTHING BUT HER NAME AND THE DEBT FROM CANCELLED SHOWS.
BUT DID SHE LET THAT STOP HER? HELL NO.
SHE GOT HER HEAD RIGHT, GOT HER SHIT TOGETHER,
AND SHE WENT ON TO A BIGGER CAREER THAN HER EX-HUSBAND EVER DREAMT OF, AND TRANSCENDED AGEISM IN A YOUTH DOMINATED INDUSTRY.
SHE JUST TURNED 74 YEARS OLD THREE DAYS AGO, AND I’M SO GRATEFUL THAT SHE’S AROUND AND IS STILL SLAYING.
This is the woman who inspired Queen Bey, ya’ll. If you don’t love Tina Turner, I don’t know who you are.
She’ll forever have my adoration.
*16 years. She is a Queen of LIFE! Love her. Love this!!
