“They just took her body from her home. Teena Marie found dead by her daughter whos BD (birthday) was yesterday. pray 4 her & her family.”
Hours before her death, Teena tweeted
"May You never grow old, and may I never die"...
Spooky how that always happens huh...speaking of death before you die. Also her daughter, who found her dead, turned 19 the day before. *sigh*
TMZ says Teena passed away in her sleep.
Aww..by the way my nickname "Lady T" was Teena Marie's nickname 1st and she was a four-time Grammy nominee! R.I.P Ms. Teena.
Her death was briefly reflected on her Wikipedia page, but was taken down within an hour.
It seems to be now confirmed though.
Story is still developing...
