Maina Kageni has described singer Tina Turner as an icon. Mwalim King'ang'i on the other admired the singer's legs and wished he'd marry a woman with such legs.
"My dream was to marry someone who had legs like Tina Turner. Simply the best!" Said King'ang'i
He added;
"Have you ever seen her legs? When we were growing up we had a vision, like what do you want, what you want to acquire, the car you want and of course legs like that of Tina Turner."
Maina also praised the 'What's Love Got To Do With It' hitmaker.
"She was so iconic, she was simply the best. She had standards, in her divorce, she told the court I do not want a coin from Ike (her ex-husband), but I am taking my name with me cause I've worked on the name Tina Turner."
"Her life turned around in a year after decades of abuse."
Maina said his biggest lesson from her is "It can take you 15 years to find the one year that's gonna change the rest of your life. She believed she walked out with nothing but her name. "
"I loved you, God loved you more and Mwalim loved your legs."
The announcement of her death was announced on her social media "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tina Turner. With her music and her boundless passion for life, she enchanted millions of fans around the world and inspired the stars of tomorrow. Today we say goodbye to a dear friend who leaves us all her greatest work: her music. All our heartfelt compassion goes out to her family. Tina, we will miss you dearly. "
No cause was given, but she had suffered a number of health issues in recent years, including a stroke and kidney disease.
Known as the Queen of Rock and Roll, she was a firebrand on the stage, and one of the most unforgettable vocalists of her generation.
She embarked on her singing career in the 1950s and found fame with the Ike Turner Revue, before re-emerging as a solo star in the 1980s.
