Tina Turner — Born 1939
As Gladys Knight is the “Empress of Soul” in the industry’s eyes, Tina Turner is billed as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll.” She is 81 years old and much less active in her career, but she’s sold over 100 million records in her prime, placing her among the highest-selling artists of all time.
Turner had her first taste of fame when she started performing with her then-husband, Ike Turner. The 81-year-old’s success in the music career has allowed her to live life like a queen. Her most recent release was a remix of What’s Love Got to Do with It with Kygo.
