[MartyMuppets]

Very good work.
But may I ask who is Ann Margret and what sort of films, music etc. has she been involved in?

 

[Pug Lover]

She was most popular during the 1960s,when she was an icon of that era.Ann had starred in the classic 1964 movie"Viva Las Vegas"opposite Elvis Presley.The two of them even had a real life affair.
Another 60s movie Ann is famous for is the classic musical"Bye Bye Birdie".
Incidently she also lended her voice to a cartoon version of herself named"Ann Margrock"in an episode of"The Flintstones".
In case you're wondering what she looks like,she's slim with glamorous long red hair.
