RIP Bonnie Tyler (1951-2026) 🕊️⁠ ⁠ Bonnie Tyler, the Welsh pop icon, has died aged 75, a representative has confirmed.⁠ ⁠ Tyler, who released her debut album The World Starts Tonight in 1977, had been a mainstay in the music business throughout the last six decades and remained active until the very end.⁠ ⁠ Notably, Tyler was awarded an MBE for her services to music in 2023, and also represented the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest a decade earlier, coming 19th with a total of 23 points accrued.⁠ For Tyler, who was nominated for three Grammys across her career, her greatest achievement was the MBE.⁠ ⁠ She said at the acceptance ceremony, “I never ever thought I would have something like this, my mother and father would be so proud. To be nominated for a Grammy was wonderful, but to be given an MBE for something I absolutely love doing is a highlight of my career.”⁠ ⁠ #BonnieTyler #FarOutMagazine
