By Inga Parkel, The Independent | Singer and actor Connie Francis, whose 1962 song “Pretty Little Baby” has recently become a viral social media hit, is back in the hospital weeks after receiving treatment on her hip. The 87-year-old “Stupid Cupid” artist was expected to perform a special Independence Day show alongside radio personality Cousin Brucie; however, Francis had to bow out after experiencing “extreme pain.”
“Hello Everyone — As many of you may now have learned through Cousin Brucie’s Facebook page, I am back in hospital where I have been undergoing tests and checks to determine the cause(s) of the extreme pain I have been experiencing,” she wrote in a Facebook post Wednesday.
“I had hoped to take part in Brucie’s show for Independence Day, having had to cancel a previous slot a few weeks ago when receiving treatment on my hip. Sadly, I had to let him know that I again had to withdraw. My thanks for your many get well soon messages. I will endeavor to keep you updated. Love, Connie.”
“It looks like I may have to rely on my wheelchair a little longer than anticipated,” Francis said, adding that she wouldn’t be able to make Cousin Brucie’s show that weekend.
