Legendary singer Tina Turner, known for her sultry voice and a string of platinum hits, has died at age 83.

The news was confirmed on Turner's official Facebook page.

"It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tina Turner," the statement said on Facebook. "With her music and her boundless passion for life, she enchanted millions of fans around the world and inspired the stars of tomorrow. Today we say goodbye to a dear friend who leaves us all her greatest work: her music. All our heartfelt compassion goes out to her family. Tina, we will miss you dearly.

Her solo career floundered for years before she mounted a stunning comeback in 1984 with her multiplatinum album “Private Dancer” and its No. 1 hit, “What’s Love Got to Do With It.”

Before long Turner was a global superstar, commanding MTV with her spiky wigs, short skirts and famously long legs strutting across concert stages in three-inch heels.

Her talent earned her acclaim as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” while her resiliency made her a hero to battered women everywhere. When she sang of pain and heartache in her husky, full-throated voice, every word rang true.

She was unique. I loved her voice.

RIP, Tina.

Great music, and I loved her sass and strength as a woman.

A news report said that she died at her home in Switzerland. I wonder what drew her there.

She married a German music executive involved in large European record labels back in the day. I'm glad she was able to have a whole new life with someone she loved after Ike.

Sounds good! I'll bet that they had a lovely home (and a lovely life) there together.

Her German husband. They had lived in Switzerland for many years. She acquired Swiss citizenship and in 2013 formally relinquished her U.S. citizenship.

She was quite the class act

I heard she preferred Europe over America because of the way people treated each other. Sometimes they even go dutch.
