The True Diva Has Arrived


I know I promised the sexiest women of 2008 and that is coming up in a day or two but I had to preempt regularly scheduled blogging to fill you in on one of the most phenomenal concerts I have attended in recent times. None other then Ms. Tina Turner! I must start by saying that I was not looking forward to this concert. I had so much to do that I'd rather been at home getting things in order. But I have to say that words can not express how thrilled I am that I did attend.

Ms. Turner appeared at the Verizon Center in Washington DC. Let me just say that she looked absolutely beyond fabulous. It was outrageous.

She moved across the stage with such speed and precision it was hard to believe she was in her 60’s. Can we talk about those legs?!!! There are 20 year olds that would kill for those legs. She wore the sexiest, skimpiest outfits and looked simply gorgeous!

We had pretty decent seats but my camera phone could not capture her true stage presence so I attempted to get a few pictures of her from the jumbo screen. I was only able to snap the one you see above because the camera Nazi behind me would not allow me to take photos. Forget that there were flash bulbs going off all around the arena and no one was being told to cease their picture taking. I was pissed to say the least so sorry for the poor picture but I hope you can see just how fabulous she really is.

She performed for 2 ½ hours and I had never seen anything like it in my life! She definitely put many of these “youngsters” to shame. I am still in awe.
