The DL icon turns 84 today.
She deserves a V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N.

Her "crying" singing style is so one note. Rockin' Connie is the most tolerable Connie.

Connie always looked like a naughty girl to me. She would have made a great Rizzo!

^^^ If she tried wearing that today, it would be cut into a thong and both butt cheeks would be hanging out like two pork hams.

The folks at the Holiday Inn with Vonnie a Happy Birthday. You’re room is ready dear, come on back, we fixed the door.

R8 That was a HoJo's, not a Holiday Inn property
We at Holiday Inn don't provide quite so many options in our room service menu for getting meat in one's room.

And still not in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.
DISGRACEFUL
She is the first lady of Rock and Roll.

No, Connie Francis is the "First Lady of Drunkenly Singing Schmaltz in the 'Pair O' Dice' Lounge at the Ramada Inn on the Access Road."

One of her better songs. Written by the same guy who wrote Downtown and other hits for Petula Clark.

Tiny nostrils. Did Connie have rhinoplasty as early as the 1950s?

Connie grew up in Newark, Bloomfield, and Belleville. She's been denied being a member of The New Jersey Hall of Fame, because her brother, George, was a mobster, murdered on his front lawn.

Is she retired or does she still tour?

Surely Connie's success could have yielded legit jobs for her family members? Was the brother in "waste disposal"?

She's in it, R20. If they had the no mobster ties rule, no one would be in it. It's NJ!

She may not perform anymore but she's still selling songs like crazy. 35 million streams on Spotify just for Stupid Cupid alone.

In a previous Connie thread, someone posted that “she has a face that should be on a can of tomato paste.” I love Connie, but that still makes me laugh.

Bland Connie singing phonetically is so boring.
