Patrice Evra dressed as Tina Turner to pay tribute to the late music icon<\/p>\n
The former Manchester United player, 42, put on a wig and circular red-tinted sunglasses to sing along to Tina\u2019s \u2018Simply the Best\u2019 in the hope he would \u201cmake people smile\u201d after the singer\u2019s death was announced on 24 May after she passed away from natural causes at her Swiss compound with her second husband Erwin Bach, 67, by her side. <\/p>\n
He captioned the clip, which also featured him making a heart sign with his hands: \u201cR.I.P. Tina. I hope this video makes you smile @TinaTurner.\u201d<\/p>\n
Patrice said in a passionate speech in the video after his singalong that appeared to reference Tina\u2019s famous resilience: \u201cI swear the weeks are getting wide and wide. But you know what, it\u2019s Monday baby. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou know in life, people will say you\u2019re not good enough for them. But make sure it\u2019s good enough for you. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cPraise yourself. Love yourself. It\u2019s not being arrogant. If you\u2019re not happy with yourself all you want to make other people happy. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cSo that\u2019s why you share that crazy energy. My mum always told me, \u2018Patrice, the more you give, the more you receive.\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n
\nTina\u2019s dramatic ups and downs included a litany of health woes including a stroke in 2013 and kidney issues so severe she needed husband Erwin to donate one of his kidneys to her in a life-saving operation in 2017. <\/p>\n
\nShe was also left with PTSD after enduring years of beatings, verbal and mental abuse and violent sex from her cheating, vicious first husband and former music partner Ike Turner, who died aged 76 in 2007. <\/p>\n
\nTributes for Tina have also poured in from famous faces including Sir Tom Jones, 82, who hailed the \u2018Private Dancer\u2019 singer a \u201cone of a kind talent\u201d. <\/p>\n
\nSir Mick Jagger, 79, said on Twitter: \u201cI\u2019m so saddened by the passing of my wonderful friend Tina Turner. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cShe was truly an enormously talented performer and singer. She was inspiring, warm, funny and generous. She helped me so much when I was young and I will never forget her.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nBeyonc\u00e9, 41, called Tina \u201cmy beloved queen\u201d after her passing, while Dolly Parton, 77, said: \u201cNow she\u2019s rollin\u2019 rollin\u2019 rollin\u2019 on to glory. Roll on Tina. We will always love you! Dolly.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nGloria Gaynor, 79, Jennifer Hudson, 41, Halle Berry, 56, and Viola Davis, 57, and Tina\u2019s old friend Oprah Winfrey, 69, have also paid tribute. <\/p>\n
\nLizzo, 35, yelled at her fans a series of times during her gig in Phoenix, Arizona on Wednesday (24.05.23): \u201cThere wouldn\u2019t be no rock \u2019n\u2019 roll without Tina Turner! <\/p>\n
\n\u201cToday, we lost an icon and I haven\u2019t allowed myself to be sad. I haven\u2019t allowed myself to cry. I don\u2019t want to right now because I\u2019d much rather celebrate the incredible legend Tina Turner is. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cAs a black girl in a rock band, I would not exist if it were not for the Queen of Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
