Renowned Singer Says Goodbye to Her U.S. Citizenship –More below
Fans and industry insiders were stunned when legendary singer Tina Turner gave up her U.S. citizenship, severing ties with the country that launched her career.
Her journey from Nutbush, Tennessee, to worldwide fame as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll” is iconic, but later in life,
she sought peace away from the spotlight. In the 1990s, Turner fell in love with Switzerland, ultimately gaining Swiss citizenship in 2013 and relinquishing her U.S. passport—a decision rooted in her strong connection to her new home.
Despite this, her influence on music and American culture remains undiminished. For Turner, embracing a quieter life in Küsnacht symbolizes her journey to personal peace and happiness, inspiring fans worldwide.
