[rpgamerd00d]

Well, it was more of a thread to congratulate Jamie :)

8. He's in the Pantheon. n'/t

[Shell Beau]

3. She should be on there too! Surely she has had some #1 hits.

4. Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves

is the first number one hit for Cher(from what I've found so far). I think Believe also reached number one(still looking) and she had many songs in the top ten.

5. Yeah, she did win Best Actress....

Now whether it was DESERVED is a different story. :-)

[xmas74]

7. She won it for Moonstruck.

And I've heard the arguments on both sides of the whether or not it was deserved.
She won it and I guess that's all that counts.

[Burma Jones]

6. And, Burl Ives

the model for Stinky Whizzleteats.......

[fishwax]

9. Shirley Jones hit #1 with the Partridge Family

Did Julie Andrews ever have a #1 single?

Either way, congrats to Jamie :toast:
