Betty Wright, the American soul-singer who blessed the world with gems like ‘Tonight is the night” and “No Pain, No Gain” has died at age 66.

The mother of five died early on Sunday.

Her passing comes just over one week after fellow icon Chaka Khan took to Twitter calling for prayers for the now deceased star. “Calling all my #PrayWarriors. My beloved sister, Betty Wright @MsBettyWright, is now in need of all your prayers. “Que Sera, Sera | Whatever Will Be, Will Be” In Jesus Name We Pray for Sister Betty, All My Love Chaka,” she wrote.
