It was one of the emblematic pop figures of the 1960s in the United States. The American singer Connie Francis, at the origin of the titles “Pretty Little Baby”, “Everybody’s Humbody’s Fool” and “Stupid Cupid”, died at the age of 87, his agent announced on Thursday.
“It is with the big heart and infinite sadness that I inform her about the death of my friend Connie Francis last night,” his agent Ron Roberts wrote in a publication on social networks, without giving more details about the circumstances of his death.
The artist, Née Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero, had been hospitalized earlier this month after having felt strong pain, according to a publication on his official Facebook page.
