After a brief set change, Guyton took center stage for “What’s Love Got to Do With.” Wearing a jean jacket and a black leather dress, she channeled Turner’s classic Eighties look and tapped into what made Turner’s original version so special, balancing urgency with restraint and adding R&B and gospel flourishes.
Aguilera rounded out the set with “River Deep Mountain High.” She too honored Turner in her fashion choice, wearing a shirt that read, “Simply the Best.” But she took a more playful approach to the performance, bounding confidently onstage and sticking her tongue out at the crowd. With her range, it’s a song she was born to sing, and Aguilera knew it.
Turner was the third artist to be a double inductee on Saturday night, alongside Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl and Carole King. “I am absolutely thrilled to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame amongst such amazing artists!” Turner tweeted upon hearing about the induction. “Thank you for all your continued love and support over the years! Love, Tina.”
As a solo artist, Turner racked up countless awards and accolades, led by her multiplatinum 1984 album, which featured the Number One single “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” a Grammy winner for Record of the Year. Although retired from the road, Turner’s been highly visible throughout 2021.
