Not gon na lie , Switzerland does face beautiful though . Ya got ta love those alp .
One of my favoriteTina Turnerfun factsis that she renounced her US citizenship.
For those who don’t know, Tina had been living in Switzerland since the mid-’90s.
A clip of her onLarry KingLive in 1997 isgoing viralof her explaining why she left America.
“I have left America because my success was in another country, and my boyfriend was in another country,” the singer said.
“Basically, Europe has been very supportive of my music,” she elaborated.
“But you’re a major star here, you’re a superstar in America,” Larry King said back. “Not as big as Madonna. I’m as big as Madonna in Europe. In some places I’m as big as the Rolling Stones,” she replied.
She emphasized this success to60 Minutes:“No one in America knows [about] that [my success in Europe.]”
Tina Turner was an even big star in Europe than she was in America . " No one in America knows that . I mean , mass are always shocked when I explain , " Tina Turner told Mike Wallace in 1996.https://t.co/zIUAs9mfhwpic.twitter.com/w4W7uSAe4 M
In 2013, Tina married German music producer Erwin Bach, became a Swiss citizen, andrenouncedher American citizenship.
So, ultimately, I guess we can blame Madonna for this one*.
