So what we heard back in March is getting real next week: Tina Turner (73) and her longtime companion Erwin Bach (57) are finally getting married. Although Tina always stated that she would never marry again it looks like she has changed her mind. After relinquishing her U.S nationality for Swiss naturalisation earlier this year, the retired singer is putting everything in order in her life. Spending her life between her Swiss “Chateau Algonquin ” and her Villa “Anna Fleur” on the French riviera, Turner hasn’t record any new material since her 1999 album “Twenty Four Seven”. She made a last final tour back in 2008/2009 and totally vanished once again after it.
The Huffpost asks What’s love got to do with it?, the New York Post state that “the couple may also throw a wedding bash at their villa on the French Riviera” while Perez Hilton thinks that “Erwin Bach is Simply The Best guy out there”.
The Express asked Tina about her relationship with Erwin, she says: “We are one!” And the star is as succinct about why she looks great for her age – “I enjoy life.”
All we know now is that Tina Turner marriage will be held at Chateau Algonquin in Kusnacht. The date is Sunday, July 21st 2013.
Dress code: White (except for Tina who will wear Armani in a color that will match the 70,000 red flowers she ordered…)
Expected Guests: Giorgio Armani, Oprah Winfrey, Sophia Loren, Sade, David Bowie & Iman, Eros Ramazzotti, Regula Curti….
Style: The ceremony will be held in the buddhist way
Update: BUNTE Magazine reports that they are constructing a concert stage with Light- and soundsystems in the garden of Tina’s Zürich home. The neighbors already got letters in which Tina and Erwin apologize for possible noise. 120 guests are invited.
Oprah and Tina Turner’s favorite singer Sade are supposed to be among the other famous guests! Let’s bet Sade will perform a few songs for Tina!

I wish Tina the best. I no longer yearn for Tina to go on tour (not to say I wouldn’t be the first in line to buy tickets if she decided to), instead I want to enjoy this new direction her career has taken in promoting her spiritual side and connecting the world.
I think Oprah should tap Tina to do a few specials a year on the OWN network that focus on bringing people together from varying backgrounds, whether spiritual/religious or otherwise and help them to have a better understanding of each other or a deeper understanding of themselves.
I’ve always understood why Tina and Oprah get along so well, they’re on the same wavelength and want to uplift and motivate others. Tina would be a great motivator for a platform such as Oprah’s which looks to not only empower all but makes an effort to look out after young and misguided woman.
Whatever she decides to do in this chapter of her life, I know all us fans wish her the best.

Wish I was on the Wedding List?…
I can dream….
I really do Wish, Anna & Erwin, “All The Best”..
*I think I have learned something about all of this;
and plan to use it in my life as well, To do what, I want to do first…
“IS To Know Yourself First”,….
Not what others think YOU should do..
But think about it, “Know Yourself” ,wow!
With my life, not worried about the chain of boyfriend,marriage, family ect..
“Me First”…..find out whom “I” am First., what is going to make me happy,
for me…(not to hurt others in the process).
and ,Not the other way around….
(I have been down that road that Tina was on ,and it’s a train wreck).
Now to apply it…what am I ,waiting for but, “MYSELF”
You will be surprise of what you will Learn, about You. and others, when they can see the real you.
you will amaze yourself.
Chant…

Congratulations to Tina & Erwin! Tina, I have admired you and loved your music for years. The first venue of a Tina Turner “live performance” was in Dallas, Texas at the Venetian Room (downtown Neiman Marcus store in Dallas, Texas. It was the Tina Turner comeback tour. The room was so small that I could have reached out to touch you. I was mesmerized….had the opportunity to see 4 more of your performances at various venues. I thrive on your music & energy…… Having spent time in India with the Buddhist monks, I feel a definite connection with you…..
