There will never be another like her. Tina Turner brought sexiness to the rugged game of Rugby League. And her sexiness was done in a respectful classy manner.

Her real name was Anna Mae Bullock. She was an African American of part Cherokee and Navajo desecent.

When you look at her ad campaigns of "What you get is what you see" and "Simply the best", there was a presence about her. You couldn't take your eyes off her. She was a great entertainer and singer. Her mannerisms in those ads was a melting pot of fun, excitment and joy.

Her greatest strength was that she appealed to everyone. She connected with families, women and people of different races. Turner was the total package.

And of course, her song, The best" is one of the great anthems. If the NRL handed out immortals to non players, she would be high on the list. She was tremendous for game. No one has come close to her with promoting the game. She was the St. George Dragons 11 straight, Qld Maroons 8 straight version of the game off the field.

Tina Turner was simply the best.
RIP

What you get is what you see!!!! And there aint nothin left to it... her best song for mine, also the best campain advert, especially since it was a complete edit with her in the UK at the time of shooting... she was meant to have the sexy ET pose with her, instead got the rough head of Gavin Miller and Cliffy Lyons
