1962 Academy Awards


A-M got her first big break on TV singing 'Bachelor in Paradise' to Bob Hope on 1962 Oscar telecast. I'd love to see that but just can't find it anywhere (even on YouTube). Please help as I'm a huge fan since 40 years !!! Thanks.

I remember seeing that and I knew she was going places. She was also on American Bandstand, (I think), and she had long dark hair. My grandfather called me in to see her. He was very impressed.

--at the theater, and Bob Hope was almost speechless! I was watching and just laughed out loud at him being soooo taken by a youngster.

She was a star from that night on.

Wish some one had a clip of that performance to put on YouTube.
