To close the Rolling Stone UK Awards 2024, the cast of TINA: The Tina Turner Musical performed a medley of the late icon’s greatest hits.
The Queen of rock‘n’roll would have turned 85 this week, and the cast of the long-running West End musical hit the Roundhouse to honour her to close out tonight’s show.
The performance began with a rendition of the timeless ‘Simply the Best’, before a finale megamix of ‘Nutbush’ and ‘Proud Mary’.
Watch the full performance below.
The second annual Rolling Stone UK Awards kicked off earlier tonight with a performance from English Teacher, who delighted with a stunning rendition of ‘You Blister My Paint’ from their Mercury Prize-winning debut album This Could Be Texas. They were followed by performances from JADE and Confidence Man.
Award winners on the night included Nile Rodgers – who accepted The Global Icon Award. That was then followed by Confidence Man’s deserved win for Live Act. The final award of the night went to New Order, who were honoured with The Icon Award.
