Cassandra Peterson
When 17-year-old Cassandra Peterson became the youngest showgirl in Las Vegas history, she certainly made a name for herself. The king of rock ‘n roll, Elvis Presley advised her to travel to Europe to get her singing and acting career underway. After she returned to the U.S. she blew audiences away with her musical comedy show “Mama’s Boys”. However, it is her show, Movie Macabre (1981) that truly boosted her stardom. It was also her character, Elvira, that became an overnight sensation. Now she is 67 years old and she is as active as ever.
