TMZ has confirmed that music legend and the former Mr. Anna Mae Bullock has died. He was 76.
Turner apparently died in his home in San Marcos, Calif., just outside of San Diego.
Sources close to the family tell TMZ he may have died in his sleep.
Ike was married four times, most famously to Tina Turner. The famous singing duo had seven top ten R&B songs and famously divorced in 1978 amidst his constant abuse towards her.

dune, he was actually a hellova musician and a hellova producer on the blues scene, but he wasnt, in my mind a good musician, nor a good producer, because ike was not a 'good 'man...... peace for his family and friends all the same

I'm envious of her long slender toned sleek legs. If I had legs like that, I would never have to ask some stranger to help get something off of the top shelf at the grocery, again.

When I was a little girl I lived in Germany.
My best friend was the most beautiful little girl I had ever seen.
Her name was Princess...really.
I cried and cried one day when my mom told me I would never be black like Princess.
Looking at Tina now, and I still what to look like both of them.
