After accumulating gazillions of US$$$. At least this oneis renouncing her citizenship. Didn't Alec Baldwin and other phony "entertainers" promise to leave the US back in 2004 when Bush43 got re-elected?

[Army Air Corps]

Well...bye.

[equaviator]

We don’t need another zero.

[BlueStateRightist]

I don’t know...I think many of us might be envious of her in the years to come.

[Farnsworth]

I can’t believe she didn’t want to live in the Obama paradise, shocking.

[Sacajaweau]

It’s all about MONEY..

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Ike is gonna be p*ssed!

[skinndogNN]

She must have a problem having a black president. She’s obviously a rascist.

[wideawake]

Ike Turner died a proud American.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

She has lived in Switzerland for years and has worked hard to be a citizen there. She made her choice and I’m glad that people have the choice to still make those decisions.

[Uncle Miltie]

She can’t do that!

She has a Black President!

[a fool in paradise]

Still waiting for her to renounce her “abusive” husband’s name.

Such a tragedy yet she turned it into personal profit and isn’t upset by the daily reminder of that man.

His career was dead in America for the last 15 years of his life (not so in Japan or Europe).

[a fool in paradise]

Lee Harvey Oswald once did that in Russia in the middle of the Cold War and yet this country took him back.

[JediJones]

Once she found out she couldn’t keep her health plan she was out.

[KosmicKitty]

I don’t know...I think many of us might be envious of her in the years to come.

She has a lot of money

How hospitable will these other countries be to average americans, especially if the SHTF and your money is worthless.

We support the destitute from other countries. How long would other countries support destitute Americans?

[Boogieman]

Well, maybe if our government stopped trying to confiscate wealth, those dollars would still be in America.

I have always respected Tina Turner for many reasons. I have thought of her as rather non political, in fact, one time when asked about her race, she said she didn’t have time for that kind of thing. (Paraphrasing). She has lived in Europe for many years, with multiple homes so why not make it official?

[lonestar]

Ike Turner beat Tina Turner.

She remarried and has lived in Switzerland for years.

How many people bad-mouthing her have thought about where they would move to?

[Venturer]

We sure will miss her. LMAO.

One less Obama voter.

So “Proud Mary” will no longer be rolling on the Mississippi, but on the Aar?

I had always supposed the river referred to in "Proud Mary" was the Russian River and that the song was about hippies lounging beside the river as they rolled their joints.
