Beyoncé Honors Tina Turner During ‘Renaissance Tour’ Stop

Beyoncé honored the late icon Tina Turner at her St. Louis Renaissance Tour stop. St. Louis was where Turner started her career after moving from Tennessee at the age of 16. "This next song, it means a lot to sing it here tonight. This is dedicated to my queen, my inspiration, Miss Tina Turner,” said Bey before singing a rendition of Turner’s "River Deep, Mountain High."

When it was confirmed that the rock legend had died back in May, Beyoncé wrote a message on her website about the singer. "My beloved queen, I love you endlessly. I’m so grateful for your inspiration, and all the ways you have paved the way. You are strength and resilience. You are the epitome of power and passion. We are all so fortunate to have witnessed your kindness and beautiful spirit that will forever remain. Thank you for all you have done."

The two performed together at the 2008 Grammys where Turner performed her '80s classic "What’s Love Got To Do With It." Beyoncé later joined the icon on stage where they both performed "Proud Mary."

In a resurfaced clip from one of many of the Beyhive's fan accounts, Beyoncé is seen rehearsing with Turner before they took the Grammy stage. The "CUFF IT" singer said how she admired Turner since a young girl.

"When I was a kid and I saw her tapes, I wanted to be like her," Beyoncé is heard saying in the clip. "This is literally a dream to me because she’s the ultimate. To actually be on the stage with her is crazy."

Beyoncé says that she owes a lot of who she is as an artist to Turner since she has been an inspiration throughout her life and career.

"If you’re a fan of mine, you’re a fan of Tina Turner," Beyoncé said during her Paris tour stop. "I wouldn’t be on this stage without [her]." She added, "I want you guys to just scream, so she can feel your love. I feel so blessed that I was alive to witness her brilliance."

Beyoncé embarked on her Renaissance World Tour in May with dates in France, England, Germany, and more. Days after her tour announcement, she became the most awarded artist in Grammy history when she won the Best Dance/Electronic Music Album Grammy for Renaissance. She took home four trophies that night as she accepted awards for Best Traditional R&B Performance for "Plastic Off The Sofa," Best R&B Song for "Cuff It," and Best Dance/Electronic Recording for "Break My Soul."

"I want to thank God for protecting me. Thank you, God. I'd like to thank my Uncle Johnny who's not here, but he's here in spirit." Beyoncé continued, "I'd like to thank my parents, my father, my mother for loving me and pushing me. I'd like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three Children who are at home watching. I'd like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre. God bless you. Thank you so much to the Grammys. Thank you."

However, before there was Renaissance, before she was a solo superstar, she was the lead vocalist for one of the most influential girl's groups of all time, Destiny's Child. The final lineup of the group consisted of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. Beyoncé and Rowland were the only members throughout the entirety of the group's history. LeToya Luckett, Farrah Franklin, LaTavia Roberson, parted ways with the group in the early years.

The group originated under the name Girl's Tyme with Beyoncé, Rowland, Roberson, and Luckett in 1990. They later changed their name to Destiny's Child in 1997 when they were signed to Columbia Records. The group split after the final three members ventured out onto solo careers.

Destiny's Child was nominated for nine Grammy awards and won two in the group's history and went on to influence the current sound of R&B and Pop genres today.

Take a look at five songs that should add to her Renaissance Tour:

"Say My Name" is a Destiny's Child classic and all OG Destiny's Child fans would love to here Beyoncé perform it on tour. The song won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and Best R&B Song in 2001. The song is from the group's 1999 album The Writing's on the Wall.

"Solider" would be a great addition to the set list as Beyoncé has already displayed that she has an army-inspired custom IVY Park outfit for the tour. This record is from the group's final album Destiny Fulfilled which was released in 2004. The song features rappers T.I. and Lil Wayne. The record was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Melodic Rap Performance in 2006.

Imagine a mash-up of "Thique" and "Bootylicious," an absolute dream. "Bootylicious" is on the group's 2001 album Survivor. A remix of the song with Missy Elliott is featured in the 2001 musical film drama Carmen: A Hip Hopera which Beyoncé stars in.

We could definitely see a "Cater 2 U" being performed before or after "Plastic Off The Sofa." The song is found on Destiny Fulfilled which was released in 2004. The song was nominated for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 2006.

Well, since Beyoncé told us to quit our jobs on "Break My Soul" she can at least perform "Bills Bills Bills" because someone has to pay them, right? "Bills Bills Bills" is from Destiny Child's second studio album The Writing's on the Wall. The song was the group's first No. 1 hit.
