PROFESSIONAL: OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY
Next to the dictionary entry for ‘legend’ may be a photo of Connie Francis. Ms. Francis‘ career has spanned well over 50 years and it’s anticipated 2011 may be her best yet! In addition to being the world’s best selling female artist of all-time, Connie is also an accomplished actress and author (her 1984 autobiography Who’s Sorry Now? made it on the New York Times Best Seller List). Her hit song list may also make her the most diversified performer in the history of music - with charting songs in multiple languages, in over 20 countries, and virtually all genres of music including pop, rock n’ roll, adult contemporary and even country music.
 In recent years, her live performance reviews have been stellar, and she  is always commended by fans and entertainment buyers from around the world on her friendliness, generosity, professionalism and talent. Her current show, with her full 21 piece orchestra and moving video presentation, is described as a ‘historical production’ -- not just a concert! Her fans have flocked from around the world to see her recently perform at sold-out gala events including the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, “Eric Floyd’s Grand Divas of Stage” at the Las Vegas Hilton with Ms. Dionne Warwick, knockout performances in France, Hong Kong, the Philippines and Canada.... as well as many other premier venues throughout the United States and the world. During the 1980s and 90s, Connie headline at Carnegie Hall and the London Palladium.
 Connie has recorded over 3000 songs in 16 different languages with over 100 of those songs reaching the charts in the United States. It may be impossible to know the exact number that have charted throughout worldwide markets! She’s appeared on countless television specials, performing her hit songs, including at least 20 times on American Bandstand / Dick Clark Show and at least 25 times on Ed Sullivan, possibly setting appearance records for both programs.
 Her meteoric rise to fame began when she was born in 1937 in New Jersey. At a very young age, Ms. Francis was performing in showcases and talent contests. By the age of 17, in the mid-1950s, Connie was recording professionally and her ‘career’ was fully underway. With guidance from her father, George, Connie recorded the old standard “Who’s Sorry Now?” which was released in late 1957. Dick Clark played this title over and over in early 1958, and the rest is history. It quickly jumped to #1 and almost immediately sold 1 million copies! She would go on to record the first female rock ‘n’ roll hit in “Stupid Cupid,” and hit songs such as “Lipstick on Your Collar,” “Frankie” and others that would forever label her as the young princess of rock and roll. 
 As early as 1958, Connie was named by both Cashbox and Billboard Magazine the #1 Female Vocalist. For six consecutive years she held this title by all the trade magazines... a record that has yet to be surpassed. By 1959, Connie had already recorded 5 Gold Records.
 In 1960, Connie starred in, and sang the title song in the film classic “Where The Boys Are.” This song went to #1 in 15 countries simultaneously!
 Connie’s personal life and career, which have each had so many glorious times, has also had it’s darker moments throughout the years. Today, Connie is back and better than ever! While she’s been heralded as an ambassador of good-will worldwide and one of the biggest entertainment stars in history -- this is a legacy that is continuing to be built. She has recently teamed with Rob Fusari (creator and award winning producer of Lady Gaga, among many other high profile artists) to create a new club version of the song “Where The Boys Are.” She’s also penned her second biography which, it’s anticipated, will reach the best seller list much like her first autobiography in the 1980s. Going into 2011, Connie has a strong performance schedule at premier venues world-wide, a massive book signing tour, television appearances scheduled, and many more exciting projects currently under development. 
           As they say... “The Legend Continues”
