Tina Turner

b. 1939
Miss Nutbush City Limits

Anna Mae Bullock was born in 1939 in Nutbush, Tennessee. When she was sixteen she moved to St. Louis. She was in high school when she joined Ike Turner and the Kings of Rhythm.

Ike and Tina Turner were always popular in the US, and even more popular in Europe. Although Ike was a difficult person, she stayed with him until 1976. In a desperate situation, and with only 36 cents in her pocket, she fled from Ike Turner and eventually became a star in her own right.

The old saying that, 'you can't keep a good woman down," holds true for Tina. With guts and hard work she recreated herself and the rest is history. Without Ike she reached for the stars and claimed hers. There is only ONE Tina Turner and she is, "The Grand Dame Of Rock."

60ish years old, Tina Turner is in a unique category--the queen of rock and rollers. Tina is currently on tour and rumor is that it may be her last one. At her age there is one thing that she don't need, and that is a "Rocking Chair."

In 1991, Tina Turner was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with her former husband Ike Turner.
