Martha Stewart's Tina Turner Tribute

Martha Stewart is remembering the good times with Tina Turner, who died on May 24.

Turner — whose volcanic voice and dynamic dance moves earned her the Queen of Rock crown over the course of a 60-year career — died at age 83, her rep confirmed on Wednesday.

Following the news, Stewart, 81, shared a sweet shot of the two legends. In the picture, the musical icon and lifestyle expert are tucked under the covers and smiling widely, looking like close friends having a slumber party.

“We loved Tina Turner. Goddess, Performer, Wonder Woman ! We will miss her so much!!!!!!!!!” Stewart wrote in the caption.

The photo was originally shared on Stewart's Instagram on Nov. 3, 2019, a few days ahead of the opening night in New York City of the musician's Broadway musical, Tina: The Tina Turner Musical.

Turner stopped by opening night of the musical in 2019, surprising the audience with an emotional post-show speech. It was one of her last public appearances.
