She was probably one of the Most Empowering Women I can recall, growing up in the 80s.
After her abusive relationship with Ike, she really dominated the stage with her Powerful Vocals and Image.
As noted, quite small in stature, when seen on stage (or in videos) in the Big Heels and Big Hair and aggressive manner, she was someone you weren't gonna mess with.
She must have been an inspiration to many girls/women during that time.
And I found her quite sexy too. Her Amazon Woman turn in MAD MAX BEYOND THUNDERDOME is brilliant.
She leaves behind tunes that will never be forgotten (What's Love Got To Do With It, Simply The Best, Private Dancer, We Don't Need Another Hero).
RIP Fine Lady.

I wasn't into her music personally but she was certainly a giant in the music industry. I didn't realize she was that far up in age. RIP.

She was certainly an icon -- but in my youth I was irked at her as the reason there was less than 25 minutes of Maurice Jarre's score on the Thunderdome album!
