Beyoncé continues to pay tribute to one of the biggest influences in her music career, the late “Queen of Rock’ n’ Roll,” Tina Turner.
Before the former Destiny’s Child band member came into the limelight, the Pop culture icon, among other young souls, grew up singing the late singer’s voice.
The 83-year-old has inspired several female talents in the music industry. However, his decades-long reign ended on May 24. Queen Bey performed one of the legend’s biggest hits on her tour to honor her legacy.

Days after the “I, Tina” author breathed her last, the Texas beauty paid tribute to the late icon during her Renaissance World tour stop in Tottenham, London. Instead of giving an emotional eulogy, the 41-year-old wowed her audience with a cover of Turner’s “River Deep — Mountain High.”
The late singer’s 1966 hit was released while she was a musical duo with ex-husband Ike Turner. In contrast to the original song, Beyoncé performed the powerful melody at a slower tempo.
As seen in a video shared by one of the “Beautiful Liar” musician’s fan pages on Twitter, the 16-time AMA winner stood confidently in front of a sold-out crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Like his previous concerts, the performer did not disappoint in the fashion department.
Paying tribute to the “We Don’t Need Another Hero” artist, the mother of three ditched her usual sassy ensemble for a more innocent look. The Parkwood Entertainment founder wore an electric blue jumpsuit that covered her entire body, including the honey blonde’s fingers and toes.
The gorgeous ensemble features a stunning ruffle detail that bulges at the waist into a sheer train. Beyoncé completed her gorgeous ensemble with a statement silver necklace, earrings and complimentary heels.
The “Crazy In Love” singer performed the epic Turner song made after his final tribute to the Queen of Rock’n’Roll. The Texas sensation paid tribute to the 83-year-old at his tour stop in Paris.
During his performance, the showtopper asked fans to “scream” so the late legend could feel their love. Speaking about the Tennessee native’s influence, the 32-time BET Award winner stated that she couldn’t have achieved Queen Bey status without the “Proud Mary” artist.

“If you’re a fan of mine, you’re a fan of Tina Turner. Because I wouldn’t be on this stage without Tina Turner,” the multi-hyphenate star confessed, adding that she was grateful to be a part of the Hollywood Walk of Fame honoree’s life.
“I feel very lucky that I am still alive to witness his brilliance. I also feel very blessed to be here to perform again,” said the Knowles-Rowland Center for Youth co-founder.

Following the announcement of the “What’s Love Got to Do with It” singer’s death, the Pop icon penned an emotional farewell message to Turner. Taking to her eponymous website, the mother of three shared stunning photos of her unforgettable duet with the late entertainer.
The Texas beauty and the “Happiness Becomes You” author performed together in 2008 at the Grammy Awards. The powerful vocalist rocked a matching silver ensemble in the image, with Beyoncé showing off her model-worthy legs in a dazzling mini dress.
Instead, the first black artist and first woman to grace the cover of “Rolling Stone” opted for a form-fitting bustier top and matching capri pants. Additionally, the performers highlighted their similarities with their matching honey brown hair.
The dynamic duo’s Grammy performance marked a historic moment for the couple. Queen Bey performed with her idols, while Turner returned to the stage for the first time in over seven years. Reflecting on this emotional occasion, the entertainer emphasized his undying adoration for the 83-year-old.

Beyoncé concluded her touching tribute, writing, “We are all so blessed to have witnessed your kindness and beautiful spirit that will last forever. Thank you for all you do.”
