There was an era when Tina Turner was turning the wheels of the entertainment business. She was one of the most sought after singers in the world until she gradually faded away from the music scene. However, Tina still creates a buzz whenever she shows up for any red carpet event. She is loved by fans around the world who haven’t forgotten her magical voice that serenaded the crowds in the 90’s.
In 1998, Tina broke a Guinness World Record when she performed in Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The expensive concert broke the record for a solo artist who sang in front of 180,000. Another artist smashed the record in 1997. She is one singer who sold more tickets for a concert as a solo performer.
Tina whose real name is Anna Mae Bullock was born in Nutbush, Tennessee. She met Ike Turner in St Louis while she was still in high school. She recorded with Ike in 1960 for the hit track, ‘A Fool For Love’. The song made headlines and made it to the top of many charts.
She found fame when she sang Let’s Stay Together by Al Green. Then came What’s Love Got to Do With It? that made her more popular. Tina has experimented with Hollywood when she starred as Aunty Entity in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome.
