Do you know of any well known singers who also were in movies?

I never knew that about Meatloaf. I do not watch many movies. Only dvds I get from my local library.

My earliest memories of singers in movies was a film called The Girl Can’t Help it, Fats Domino, Eddie Cochran, Little Richard. Julie London. The Platters. Not forgetting the lovely Jayne Mansfield who died in an horrific car crash.

Frankie Laine who made lots of movies in the fifties, and continued until he died at 93 of a heart attack following a hip replacement operation. He was probably most famous for singing the theme song to ‘Rawhide’ the TV series. I bought the record (which I still have) and the flip side was a song called ‘Journeys End’ and has always been Mrs Foxes favourite song since the first time she heard it when we were courting (can you still use that word?) back in 1971

I saw that but could find no picture of the damage the pub sustained.

Thank you for posting this.
Must be heartbreaking to go through devastation such as this.
