Angela Basset says goodbye to the singer she played in the movies
Angela Bassett gave life to Tina Turner in the film that was made regarding her in 1993. In fact, she was nominated for an Oscar for ‘Best Actress’ in 1994 for her work.
“How can we say goodbye to a woman who took ownership of her pain and trauma and used it as a means to help change the world? Through her courage in telling her story, her commitment to staying the course of her life no matter the sacrifice, and her determination to carve out a space in rock and roll for herself and others like her., Tina Turner showed others that she lived in fear of what a beautiful future filled with love, compassion, and freedom should look like. Her last words to me, to me, were: ‘You never imitated me. Instead, you reached deep into your soul, found your inner Tina, and showed it to the world. I will keep these words close to my heart for the rest of my days. I am honored to have known Tina Turner. I’m honored to have helped show it to the world. So today, as we mourn the loss of this iconic voice and presence, she gave us more than we might have asked for. She gave us all of her. And Tina Turner is a gift that will always be “simply the best.” Angels, sing your rest… Queen”, she has expressed to The Hollywood Reporter.
