Tina Turner's death is being mourned around the world. But in Australia, many people felt a special connection to the singer.
Australia holds the world record for the most number of people to dance to her song “Nutbush City Limits,” and Turner became the face of rugby league for a generation of Australians after she appeared on a series of popular television ads for the sport. She is credited with boosting female viewership of rugby league in Australia.
