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.

Happy Birthay from Datalounge, where the boys are.

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.

SCTV got it perfectly way back in 1979!

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?

The only people who remember Connie Francis post on Datalounge.

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.

by Anonymousreply 20December 13, 2021 3:04 AM

Is she retired or does she still tour?

by Anonymousreply 21December 13, 2021 3:08 AM

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

And? Who cares about aging celebrities? It’s a birthday big whoop.

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

Yes, apparently, posting about herself on Datalounge.

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

I wonder why they didn't cast her in Funny Girl? She would've been perfect.

Yes, she's almost as Jewish as Carmela Soprano.

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.

R10 Nailed it!!! Connie Francis was the first big female star to emerge from the pop/rock era. Put her in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame - NOW!!!

I bought this Greatest Hits album of her back in the day. Good stuff. Still have it.
