The Kennedy Center Honors tend to be a Democrats’ paradise, but President Bush at least offered a prime rib at a pre-ceremony cocktail party Sunday as he discussed the honoree with, in his words, “the most famous legs in show business”: “Tina Turner’s life began in Tennessee in a town called Nutbush. I’ve never been there, but I’ve passed a few sign wavers who apparently want me to know about it.” The other honorees are actors Robert Redford and Julie Harris, singer Tony Bennett and ballerina Suzanne Farrell; CBS will broadcast the event Dec. 27.

Seeing Tina in person in concert was one of the highlights of all the concerts I have attended. Greatest legs in show business? Without a doubt. Keep rockin’, lady.
She is a fine example of only being as old as you feel, only she does it with a lot of class!
Nut-bush. What a GREAT combo!!!!
Tina’s performance as the ‘Acid Queen’ was astounding.
