Description
Rock Icon Tina Turner proposed by the actress and author Rebecca Humphries.
Tina Turner began life as Anna Mae Bullock in Nutbush, Tennessee, joining Ike Turner's band in St Louis at the age of 17. Her presence, her performances and her voice captivated audiences, but this is really a story of triumph over abuse. After she left Ike Turner with nothing but her name, she built a successful solo career in her 40s and rose to become one of the best-selling artists of all time, filling arena into her 70s.
Tina Turner is nominated by Rebecca Humphries.
Presented by Matthew Parris, produced in Bristol for BBC Studios Audio by Ellie Richold
