# Tina Turner

Tina Turner was an American-Swiss singer and entertainer who overcame an abusive marriage to Ike Turner to mount one of the most remarkable comebacks in rock history, releasing the multi-platinum album "Private Dancer" in 1984 when she was in her mid-40s and becoming one of the best-selling music artists of all time with over 100 million records sold. Known for her electrifying live performances, raspy voice, and sequined mini-dresses, she won 12 Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She died on May 24, 2023, at age 83, at her home in Switzerland.
