GODSPEED, TINA TURNER...


On stage, you were glamour and passion rolled into one, garbed like Nyoka and fueled by an energy that would spur anyone to leap up and dance. 


As an actress, you were just as inviting, with Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome's Auntie Entity becoming the greatest femme fatale of any post-apocalyptic age. You were also amazing as The Acid Queen in Tommy and as The Mayor in The Last Action Hero, and let's not overlook that classic Pepsi commercial with David Bowie or that delightful cameo in Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Ah, but the way you belted out the theme for 007's GoldenEye, now that truly set the world ablaze!


We'll miss you from the bottom of our broken hearts, Ms. Turner, for you were a legend, a beauty and above all, the consummate queen of tantalizing talent: in other words, "simply the best!"
