Barack Obama mourns Tina Turner

Former United States President Barack Obama has penned a touching tribute to global music icon Tina Turner, following her death, at age 83.

While remembering the What’s Love Got to Do with It hitmaker on his social media accounts, the 61-year-old politician described the late legend as ‘raw’ and ‘powerful.’

”Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade”, the ex-president, who hardly tweets tweeted.
