Man I don't think we got enough of Tina. I wish she could have been in movies and more on TV. She's such a freaking legend. I'm just in awe of her.

Tina is both simple and markedly sophisticated. What a lady! 'No alcohol, no tobacco, no drugs' Rest in perfect peace, gorgeous Tina. May God watch over you.

Tina also sounds amazing live unlike so many singers today. She actually had talent.

[@corkycobon1481]

There will never be a female performer as dynamic and talented as Ms. Tina Turner. She is and forever will be simply The Best. Rest in eternal light, Anna Mae. You did Tennessee real proud!

[@krisy-in-italy]

So much more to her life and her story. She was a real Queen. 💜

[@devilsfavorite999]

She lived with Erwin much longer than Ike. Media made a circus of her pain. A lesson there to be learned.

[@Roxville23]

People like dramas I guess

[@Jazzykatt23]

The media feeds off of misery and drama. Erwin was her true soulmate. He extended her life by a decade by giving her one of his kidneys. That is love.

[@BriaBarrows]

Definitely

[@annegreene7690]

Media told the truth, she experienced the real truth.

[@naturalmystic251]

True Erwin made her happy but without the first husband we wouldn't be having this conversation. Just saying.

This us the woman who deserves all the recognition. Not Beyonce or Cardi b... Tina. So much talent, intelligence and class.

Tina Turner is the biggest female rock n roll star of all times. Rest in heaven with the angels, Tina. You really deserved it after all you went through in your earthly life.

Rest in Peace Tina, you've earned your golden wings. You were loved by Erwin and that's what love has to do with it.

[@annegreene7690]

Thank you Mr. Erwin for giving her what she needed-to be happy,to be loved,to give love, to live in peace, to be herself.

[@Clintsessentials]

Why does Tina Turner's energy make me want to work my ass off??? Her energy!!!

[@essie982]

She was a biological male.

[@anthonygordon9483]

She wasn't lying. She stay fit on the stage. Almost how micheal was. If it wasn't for her terrible marriage, I honestly think she never would of got off the stage. Some people take break for families etc. Some people don't realize by the time the late 70s she was already taking care of Ikes kids the minute she met him and the kids they had together and being on the stage at the same time. I swear if she never had a shitty marriage, she would of never left the stage. But at the same time I feel that is also why she retired sooner then most typical muscian. She never really slowed down. But with her marriage screwing up her career I dont blaim her for working even harder to get back to the top. She reminds me of George Foremen during the 90s.

[@ginaonthemic]

I love watching her watch “herself” on stage in her biopic. ❤ Epic moment.

[@vforward9593]

My heart goes out to her husband Erwin, he’s hurting a lot. They appeared to be so very happy together.

[@BriaBarrows]

Why is 60 minutes Australia better then 60 minutes here in the US I love this interview! RIP Queen Tina

[@fc7424]

Australia doesn't add the BS spin, just gets to the facts, to the point and base of the stories.

[@dogonit7412]

America or Australia, 60 Minutes is still a brainwash factory. THIS is a nice tribute to Tina Turner ... but the product they normally sell is propaganda.

[@chantelletrembath3345]

Australia has great journalists imo . RIP Tina from NZ

[@Inaworldoflove]

It's a terrible show now. It was great in 93.

[@barbaraw1146]

It’s disappointing to me (and I’m sure it would be to Tina too) that upon her passing this is what people continue to want to talk about - Tina was not defined by her relationship first her first husband. It was a very small part of her life and should not overshadow the great artist she was and the gift she gave us.

[@thevcountdown9824]

In my country (Switzerland, the country she loved) they started talking about her money and who will get it, the day after she died. Absolutely sad and pathetic.

[@geoffcoates8671]

This interview was done as the movie “What’s Love Got to do With It” was released. And that movie focussed on that. Also as a journalist these questions would usually have to be pre-approved.

[@markmckinney5984]

@@thevcountdown9824 You find out the true nature of some people AFTER someone passes away. It's very sad. And VERY disappointing.

[@mimiz7937]

Agreed. Who cares about their personal past. What like these two were the only ones in the world who had domestic violence going on? Who gives a damn. She was talented, and yes even her ex husband.

[@whitneybrown4067]

@ Barbara W…. 🎯💜💐🙏….

[@kasisatya5448]

Even Tina commented that when people asked about her 'relationship' with her ex POS that she had to relive those times - this subject has been mauled over and over again and again - so everyone get over it and concentrate on the extraordinary talent that she was and appreciate that.

Because Tina was too polite to do so. As Cher once pointed out "Tina's a lady." No potty-mouth like others who shall remain nameless.

Tina Turner is a dream come true. She is simply the best.

[@Arcenia13]

I remember when I was a kid my mom had ran to switch the channel to a special Tina Turner was on bc she loved the way the band would perform. It’s my first memory of Tina since I didn’t see bands DANCE to the beat of what they played. Today, I still enjoy bands who really energize their music with dancing to the beats they orchestrated. Later in my life after seeing the movie how much she endured. It motivated me as a woman to move through the storms of life to get through the journey of life. What an inspiration! Rest peacefully Queen 👑 of Rock n Roll!!!

[@wowJhil]

I had no idea she had passed away until today, but I am glad that she had a very long life and an awesome partner by her side! Also, she did tours for a very long time, I remember her being at a very respectable age and still performing when I saw her as a kid so many years ago now. Tina Turner is the no 1 artist I think about, when I think about my mom. She would love her music (I did to) and even dance to it. Tina Turner has a very special place in our hearts!

[@Encourager-Purpose-Destiny]

Everybody listen up..."We" must stop dealing with the same people who caused the pain and do their evil and don't think nothing is wrong with their actions. And they keep on doing it. You have to realize this is just the way they are, forgive them, pray for them, and leave them alone. So that God can heal you, and you can keep your healing. When people show you who they are, believe them. When God delivers you, don't go back to what God delivered you from. It is like a dog returning to his own vomit. Keep your healing! Keep your testimony. Words of Wisdom!
