February 16, 201511 yr Active Members It's YOUR party now in Heaven.....RIP.... Singer Lesley Gore, best known for her 1963 single It's My Party, has passed away. The 68-year-old died of cancer at New York-Presbyterian Hospital on Monday. The pop star came onto the scene when she was only 17 years old and spawned four Top Five hits including She's A Fool and You Don't Own Me. Gore — who graduated from Sarah Lawrence College — was also an actress, starring in the 1967 Batman series as the character of Pussycat
February 16, 201511 yr Thanks for this note. I had completely forgotten Pussycat from Batman. Fond memories.
February 17, 201511 yr Active Members Loved that song! She died young. I never knew that she had such an impressive Seven Sisters college CV.
March 5, 201511 yr Active Members I saw her once--through Pat Boone's living room window. I take it this was before California passed all those stalker laws.
March 5, 201511 yr It was in Teaneck, New Jersey, and I don't think the word "stalker" had been coined yet.
