Lola Dee passed away at the age of 95 on Thursday. The Italian American singer died of natural causes in a nursing facility in Hinsdale, Illinois, according to an announcement by her publicist and CD producer Alan Eichler. She was a popular singer in the 1950s and had toured with Bob Hope, Jimmy Durante and Johnnie Ray.
Her 1951 hit song, Pretty Eyed Baby — which she released under Lola Ameche at age 23 before her name change in the '60s — had charted to No. 21 on Billboard singles. Dee was born Lorraine DeAngelis in Chicago in 1928 and got her start as a child star performing in local amateur shows on Junior Junction at the age of 14.
