US President Joe Biden

"Before she became the 'Queen of Rock and Roll,' Tina Turner was the daughter of a Tennessee farmer. As a child, she sang in her church choir before becoming one of the most successful recording artists of all time.

In addition to being a talent that changed American music forever, Tina's strength of character was remarkable. Overcoming adversity, even abuse, she built a long career, an illustrious life and legacy."

Former US President Bill Clinton

"I love Tina Turner and will never forget meeting her when I came to Little Rock for a concert after she released Private Dancer in 1984. We met again on her 67th birthday in St. Petersburg, where she and Elton John sang at a charity event. She is still there - talent, style, energy and authenticity - a priceless gift to music lovers everywhere."

"How do we say goodbye to a woman who owned her pain and trauma but used it as a vehicle to help change the world ? Through her courage in telling her story, her commitment to continuing to change lives, regardless of the sacrifices, and her determination to create a Rock and Roll career for herself and for those like her, Tina Turner showed those who lived in fear what a beautiful future filled with love, compassion, and freedom could look like.

While we mourn the loss of this iconic voice and presence, she gave us more than we could ever ask for. She gave us her entire self. And Tina Turner - the gift that was always 'simply the best.'"
