Tina Turner: The Queen Of Rock ‘n’ Roll Ends An Era!

Posted on May 25, 2023

Music Legend, Tina Turner, whose death was announced on Wednesday at the age of 83, will undoubtedly get her dying wish: asked in her final interview six weeks ago how she wanted to be remembered, she replied: ‘As the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll’. 
The legendary singer died at her home in Küsnach near Zurich, Switzerland, following a long, unspecified illness.
Her representatives announced the news, saying: ‘With her the world loses a music legend and role model’.
On April 9, in what are believed to be her final public remarks, she told The Guardian how she hoped the world would remember her – and how she did not fear death.
‘How would you like to be remembered?’ the Guardian asked.
‘As the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll. As a woman who showed other women that it is OK to strive for success on their own terms.’
Asked what frightens her about getting older, she replied: ‘Nothing. This is life’s full adventure and I embrace and accept every day with what it brings.’
