RIP Bonnie Tyler. And RIP Tandi Iman Dupree. This remains the best stage entrance by a drag queen of all time, even some 25 years later, and the best use of Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” ever. youtu.be/IHQA5vqn6rw?...

Saddened to hear the news that singer Bonnie Tyler (1951-2026) has passed away, aged 75. Famous for hits "Total Eclipse of the Heart", "Holding Out for a Hero" and "It's a Heartache". 🙏 😔 🎶 #music

In loving memory of Bonnie Tyler, please enjoy this video of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" from the early, let's-make-this-as-homoerotic-as-possible-simply-because-we-can era of MTV. I was 19 when this went into heavy rotation. It made an impression! www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcOx...

Bonnie's family and team are heartbroken to announce that Bonnie unexpectedly passed away last night in hospital in Portugal as a result of the illness that she was being treated for.

We will issue a further statement shortly but for now ask for privacy to deal with this tragedy.
