Can You Name This Talented Singer?

We bet you own an album from that famous singer Anna Mae Bullock right? Anna Mae was born a poor child of color in Nutbush, TN, raised by her sharecropper parents, hoping one day to grow up and become a nurse. Rather than the medical profession, Anna Mae got into music, eventually selling over 100 million albums.

It’s not always been easy for Anna Mae. She spend decades in an abusive marriage, was consistently on the short end of all her business affairs, eventually learning how to fend for herself and become a superstar. Can you guess her stage name?

Serendipity is what Tina Turner is all about. Tina and her sister sang at nightclubs in St. Louis in the late 50s, often times running into Ike Turner and his Kings of Rhythm band. One day while adding background vocals for a song being recorded by Art Lassiter, Art failed to show, and after plenty of begging, Ike let her record the tune, her as lead. The song became a hit; the rest they say is rock n’ roll history.

These days Tina has retired from the music industry, living in Küsnacht, Zurich. Her net worth is north of $350 million dollars. Tina has two grown children Raymond and Ronald.
