Recording artist Donna Summer -- the "Queen of Disco" -- died Thursday morning after battling lung cancer, she was 63 years old. The five-time Grammy winner first rose to fame the mid-'70s, thanks to "Love to Love You Baby." Hollywood publicist Michael Levine said he was hired in 2002 to help Summer "rebrand and reinvent her image."
"She was a victim of her own success," Levine said. "The disco diva imprint was so great that she wanted to break beyond that."
"She would always bring a gift when she came to our office, which is not common," he said.
"She will be terribly missed. She was truly the #Disco Queen!" Singer La Toya Jackson said in a Twitter posting.
