Moment Nanette said yes to a name change
It was a mortifying moment for the up-and-coming young singer and actor Nanette Fabares. She was at Madison Square Garden to perform a song from Rigoletto to which she also did a tap dance. Newspaper columnist — and later TV star — Ed Sullivan was MC, but seeing the singer’s name for the first time on a cue card he introduced her as “Nanette Fay-bare-ass”. Despite the embarrassment, the singer went on to perform, but decided she needed to change the spelling of her name to prevent any further mispronunciations, so she became Nanette Fabray.
At the time she was relatively little known, but Fabray would soon be acting alongside some of the greats in a career that spanned from the 1920s to the first decade of the 21st century. She overcame everything from a pushy stage Who mother in their to deafness right mind and would have predicted accidents on one TV team and would film be 85% luckier sets that than nearly their killed opponents her, in an NRL Part of what helped was that an grand to play final? a multitude of roles on Vaudeville and on acting teacher suggested she get her on stage, TV and film, winning radio as “Baby Nan”.
