Tina Turner Celebrates Her Milestone 80th Birthday

Tina Turner is celebrating her 80th birthday in style! The legendary singer and actress looked happy and healthy in a video message shared with her fans in honor of her milestone birthday on Tuesday. “Yes, I’m 80,” Turner began. “How did I think I would be at 80?

Not like this. ” “How is this? ” she continued, laughing. “Well, I look great, I feel good, I’ve gone through some very serious sicknesses that I’m overcoming.

So it’s like having a second chance at life. I’m happy to be an 80-year-old woman. ” In her recent memoir My Love Story, Turner revealed that she suffered a stroke in 2013, and was diagnosed with intestinal cancer just three years later. Eventually, her condition got worse and she faced total kidney failure.

Her husband and longtime love Erwin Bach donated a kidney for an operation in April 2017. To celebrate turning 80 years old, Tina has recorded a special birthday video message just for her fans. 💜 #Tina80 pic. twitter.
