Tina Turner Becomes a Swiss Citizen
[An Nahar] Tina Turner, the U.S.-born singer famed for hits such as "Private Dancer" and "What's Love Got to Do With It", has become a Swiss citizen, the Swiss newspaper Blick reported.
I knew she was gonna do that. She built my watch, you know.
The 73-year-old retired entertainer, who has lived in Switzerland for nearly two decades, received her red Swiss passport with its distinctive white cross on it on Monday, the publication said.
She showed it to the press, gave a couple honks on her alpenhorn, yodeled a few bars, and then went back to her cheese making.
Swiss media reported in January that Turner was to hand in her U.S. passport when she got her Swiss one. She was quoted as saying that "I cannot imagine a better place to live" than in the European Alpine state, where privacy laws are strictly enforced.
I understand they have numbered street addresses in Geneva.
