The superstar was open about how the trauma of her abusive marriage lingered long after she escaped her ex-husband, but she spoke honestly about it even up to her final weeks.
She spoke about being involved in the musical — which is currently showing in Sydney — in"It was painful, sometimes, to revisit the past, but it gave me closure and answered some questions that still haunted me," she said.
"Through her courage in telling her story, her commitment to stay the course in her life, no matter the sacrifice, and her determination to carve out a space in rock and roll for herself and for others who look like her, Tina Turner showed others who lived in fear what a beautiful future filled with love, compassion, and freedom should look like," Basset said."To me, she will always be a survivor and an inspiration to women everywhere," Mariah Carey said.
