Stevie Nicks has shared a warm tribute to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who passed away from cancer on Friday. Stevie called Ginsburg a hero, a political rock star who fought for all women. A leading woman herself, Stevie ended her tribute by inducting Ginsburg into the “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame of Life.”
Read Stevie’s journal entry below.
RBG~
She was my hero. She fought for me, and all women. I feel today very much like I felt on the night my own mother died. I feel like someone punched me in the stomach. My tears have not stopped since a friend tip toed into my room and said “Stevie, Ruth died.” (No need for a last name…)
I so believed that she would live for a few more years. I wanted to meet her. I wanted to hold her hand and give her a huge hug and thank her for all she had done for women, and for all she would continue to do.
If I lived in Washington D.C., I would be standing on the steps of the Supreme Court with as many long-stemmed red roses as I could hold~ and a candle. I will light that white candle here, at my house, right now~ and I will go find the most beautiful rose in my back yard~
It is my great regret that I did not make the effort to go and try to meet her. As with all legends, you think they will live forever, so you will get there in time.
I did not get to meet her. I did not get to stand in her grace. What a loss…
She was a political rock star~
