Finally a dance number I can do! :)

Nancy Sandra Sinatra (born June 8, 1940) is an American singer. She is the elder daughter of Frank Sinatra and Nancy Sinatra (née Barbato)

Facts:

  • She did Playboy to ‘churn things up’
  • One of Madonna’s “oldest fantasies” was to be Nancy Sinatra, and she admitted to performing “These Boots Are Made For Walkin'” standing “in front of the mirror in [her] uniform skirt.”
  • Frank Sinatra, who died in 1998, sang at the Trump-owned Atlantic City casino in 1990, asking for his fee after his performance. After Trump refused to pay up, the singer allegedly told him to “go f*** himself.” It appears that Frank’s hatred for The Donald was passed on to his daughter, who refuses even to say Trump’s name during casual conversation. “I’ve always tried desperately never to mention it, and if I did it would have been with a lowercase ‘t,'” she declared to The Guardian.
  • She was a close friend to the legendary Elvis Presley. Nancy starred in Speedway alongside Elvis, and, of course, rumors began circulating that these two A-listers were an item. The “Sugartown” singer finally addressed the gossip in 1995 while on Geraldo Rivera’s talk show, admitting that while the pair had a “friendly” flirtation, nothing ever progressed past that. Years later, joking to Conan O’Brien that Elvis was “a great kisser,” she also admitted that the pair took their friendship off-set, as well, with the “Jailhouse Rock” singer even calling her the night his daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, was born.
  • Nancy Sinatra’s success with the release of “These Boots Are Made For Walkin'” in 1966 coincided with the ramping up of the Vietnam War — and her popularity only grew that same year as US troops stationed in the country rose to 400,000. With her bleached blonde hair and mesmerizing sphinx-like makeup, Nancy and her go-go boots became pop-culture icons outside of America. In fact, as The Guardian reveals, she “was the most popular pinup for the GIs in Vietnam.”
