Donna Summer -- the Queen of Disco -- died this morning after a battle with cancer ... TMZ has learned.

We're told Summer was in Florida at the time of her death. She was 63-years-old.

Summer was a 5-time Grammy winner who shot to superstardom in the '70s with iconic hits like "Last Dance," "Hot Stuff" and "Bad Girls."

She continued her dominance in the '80s with "She Works Hard for the Money" and "This Time I Know It's for Real."

Summer and her producer Giorgio Moroder defined the dance music era of the '70s and influenced acts like Duran Duran and David Bowie to enter the genre.

Summer married Brooklyn Dreams singer Bruce Sudano back in 1980. They had two daughters together.

Is this true? I haven't heard anything about her being sick and battling cancer till now.  This is so sad if it's true.  Wow....here we go again...watching like hawks to see if there is anything that seems 'strange' about this passing.

I never heard she was ill either, and there is no use in googling, because all you get is news about her death. I think she kept it private.

I am so sad.  I didn't know she was ill either.  I love her!  I am meeting my best friend for dinner this evening, we had the times of our lives when we were young at the disco dancing to Donna's music.  I love Last Dance, Mac Arthur Park and so many more.  Rest in peace Donna, thank you for the time of my life.

Very sad.

I'm really starting to associate TMZ with death because that's usually where I hear of someone's passing.

Their latest update:

"9:27 AM PST- TMZ has learned ... Donna died from lung cancer.  Several sources are telling us Donna believed she contracted it by inhaling toxic particles after the 9/11 attack in New York City.

9:35 AM PST- Donna's family just released a statement, claiming, they "are at peace celebrating her extraordinary life and her continued legacy."

Very sad! I don't blame her for keeping her illness quiet - the media is ruthless. RIP Donna :(

I read somewhere that some firefighters who worked to rescue victims of 9/11 have contracted cancer.
