IBS.....Connie Francis

Her best career move? Not changing her name when she married Peter Lingus. 

Funny story, of sorts.....Many years ago my wife and I were having dinner at a nice Italian restaurant in Beverly Hills. After a while I noted what was strange about the background music.....It was her greatest hits album, all rerecorded in Italian.

My God.  What a story.   What a woman.

I knew some of the bad things about Connie Francis, but I did not know all of it.  She endured.  She came out singing again.  Good for her.
