Connie Francis was a giant of 1950s and ’60s sugary-sweet pop, notching more than a dozen hits. In the months leading up to her death, announced Thursday, she experienced one more in “Pretty Little Baby,” which has become a viral hit on TikTok six decades after its release.

Iconic singer and New Jersey native Connie Francis, known for hits such as “Pretty Little Baby” and “Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool,” has died at 87. Francis’ death was confirmed on social media by her friend and copyright manager Ron Roberts Thursday — two weeks after she was hospitalized due to “extreme pain.”

TikTok videos using the song have racked up a massive 45 billion views this year, a response Francis called ‘overwhelming’ before her death.
