From the White House, his press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, said: "I am very sad to hear the news. She was a big fan of Tina Turner. "As you can see from my reaction, it's the first time I've heard it, and it's a huge loss to the communities that loved her and certainly to the music industry. Our hearts go out to his family and friends."
The also singer Diana Ross, has paid tribute to the singer. Sharing a photo of herself and Turner dressed in black, the singer says she is "shocked" and "saddened" by the news: "I send my condolences to Tina Turner's family and loved ones," she tweeted.
Already in Spain, the Minister of Culture and Sport, Miquel Iceta, has been one of the first to echo the news, lamenting the loss of the singer, although, as he has expressed, his songs will remain as consolation.
"It's a very sad day for music and for those of us who have enjoyed his long career. As a consolation we are left with his songs. For me Simply the best", has published the head of Culture in his account of the social network Twitter.
The Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, has also highlighted her on social networks as an "example for all women for decades throughout the world."
In the same line, the president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, has highlighted the voice of the singer, which he has described as "unrepeatable", and has expressed that "many will remember her for what she was: simply the best".
