By 1983, Tina Turner was nearly forgotten by the music industry—dismissed as too old, too Black, too female. But one fateful night in New York changed everything. David Bowie insisted on ditching a corporate dinner to see her perform at the Ritz, demanding his entire label come along. Tina later called it her “Cinderella moment.” After the show, she drank Dom Perignon and sang Motown classics with Bowie, Keith Richards, and Ron Wood around a hotel piano. One iconic photo and one unforgettable night later, her comeback had officially begun—not as a nostalgic act, but as a rock icon reborn.
