Bruce Springsteen Makes Tragic Announcement

Legendary artist Bruce Springsteen announced the death of his mother, Adele Springsteen, on social media Thursday.

Along with a touching tribute, Bruce posted a video clip of his mother dancing to swing music.

“Adele Springsteen – May 4, 1925 – January 31, 2024,” the artist wrote.

Although Boss did not provide any information about the cause of his mother's death, he continued to share loving memories with his 1.5 million followers.

“I remember my mom hearing your alarm clock go off in the morning. I was lying in bed and listening to the sounds of you getting ready for work and your makeup bag on the sink. I was listening,” Bruce wrote. “And the women in the office had lipstick and perfume and rustling skirts. You always came home from work proud and happy.”

The famous singer paid tribute to his late mother by posting some of the lyrics to his song “The Wish,'' which was released in 1998 and dedicated to the sacrifices she made.

“No phone calls on Sunday, no flowers, no Mother's Day cards. Not a house on a hill with a garden and a nice little garden,” he quoted. “I keep my hot rod on Bond Street. I'm older, but you'll recognize me at a glance. Find a little rock'n'roll bar and go out and dance.”

Funeral details are not disclosed at this time. (Related: Film director Bradley Thomas' wife commits suicide: report)
