The coolest woman who ever graced the airwaves. She blazed a trail for us all and never compromised. Her passion for music never diminished. Annie - My utmost respect and thanks for it all. Much love Jo 🖤

From her family.. Never underestimate the role model she became. Breaking down doors by refusing to bow down to sexual prejudice and male fear gave encouragement to generations of young women who, like Annie, only wanted to tell you about an amazing tune they had just heard.

@wrobinson101 @Dave_MdaC @CitizensAdvice @MrSaffron Trying to report repairs to property owned by Camden Council is a nightmare. All has to be done by app or txt. No telephone numbers to call especially when they leave you with a job half done. Very difficult to get any response unless it's an emergency.

How are you getting on in the digital world? We are talking about that in our phone in today #youandyours with @Dave_MdaC from @CitizensAdvice @MrSaffron from Thinkbroadband

Only 31 sleeps til Christmasssss. This was lovely @MarkE11en @davidhepworth @WIYElondon @sladeforlife have a listen!

The unity displayed by the members of the Spanish national team both on the field and off is to be applauded. Voices joined together are harder to ignore, and their bravery sets the standard for others to follow. bbc.com/sport/football…

🗣️ 'We women have as much right to play in those stadiums as the men do' Emma Hayes: World Cup has shown there is a vibrant paying audience for the women's game – we should play in the same stadia as men. ✍️ @emmahayes1 #TelegraphWomensSport | #FIFAWWC | #WSL

A special tournament in many ways. We can be so proud of our journey and what we yet again have achieved together as a team. To also be able to mark the journey with my 100th appearance for Sweden has been surreal and something I could only dream of growing up.

What a tournament, @ZeciraMusovic! 🧤

📖 THE NEXT CHAPTER 📖 The #Lionesses' official @FIFAWWC squad announcement is here!

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tina Turner. With her music and boundless passion for life, she enchanted fans worldwide and inspired future stars. We say goodbye to a dear friend who leaves us her greatest work; her music. Tina, we will miss you dearly.

Count them out 💙

When Tina Turner left her first husband - who was also her boss, captor, and brutal tormentor - she snuck out of their Dallas hotel room with a single thought in her mind: "The way out is through the door." From there she fled across the midnight freeway, semi-trucks careening past her, with 36 cents and a Mobil gas card in her pocket. As soon as she decided to walk out that door, she owned nothing else. When she filed for divorce, she made an unusual request. She didn't want anything: not the song rights, not the cars, not the houses, not the money. All she wanted was the stage name he gave her - Tina - and her married name - Turner. This was the name by which the world had come to know her, and keeping it was her only chance to salvage her career. Things could have gone a lot of ways from there. She could have labored in obscurity for decades, maybe making records on small labels to be prized by vinyl connoisseurs in Portland. She could have stayed in Vegas, where she first went to get her chops back up, and worked as a nostalgia act. And, of course, given what she had been through, she might have ... not made it. What happened instead is that Tina Turner became the biggest global rock star of the 80s. I'm old enough to barely remember this, but if you aren't, it was like this: The Rolling Stones would headline a stadium one day, and the next day it would be Tina Turner. A middle-aged Black woman - she became a rock star at 42! - sitting atop the 1980s like it was her throne. She managed this because of whatever rare stuff she was made of (this is a woman whose label gave her two weeks to record her solo debut, Private Dancer, which went five times platinum); because she decided to speak publicly about her abusive marriage and forge her own identity, and in doing so give hope and courage to countless women; and also because - in a perhaps unlikely twist for a girl from Nutbush, Tennessee - she had her practice of Soka Gakkai Nichiren Buddhism, to which she credited her survival. She remained devout until the end. Tina's second marriage - to her, her only marriage - was to Edwin Bach, a Swiss music executive 16 years her junior. Of him, she said, "Erwin, who is a force of nature in his own right, has never been the least bit intimidated by my career, my talents, or my fame." In 2016, after a barrage of health problems, Tina's kidneys began to fail. A Swiss citizen by then, she had started preparing for assisted suicide when her husband stepped in. According to Tina, he said, "He didn't want another woman, or another life." He gave her one of his kidneys, buying her the remainder of her time on this earth and perhaps closing a cycle which took her from a man who inflicted injury upon her to a man willing to inflict injury upon himself to save her from harm. Born into a share-cropping family as Anna Mae Bullock in 1939, she died Tina Turner in a palatial Swiss estate: the queen of rock 'n roll; a storm of a performer with a wildcat-fierce voice; a dancer of visceral, spine-tingling potency and ability; a beauty for the ages; a survivor of terrible abuse and an advocate for others in similar situations; an author and actress; a devout Buddhist; a wife and mother; a human being of rare talent and perseverance who, through her transcendent brilliance, became a legend.
