December 12, 2020 turned 105 years from the day when Frank Sinatra was born. On the entertaining facts from the creative biography and the personal life of the famous singer - in the material 24cmi.
1. Non-educated hooligan
Despite the fact that Frank Sinatra Ries in the Family of Emigrants from Italy, his childhood cannot be called unsecured. On the contrary, the money from the parents of the future star was found. So the mother and father of the child did not deprive her son with gifts and toys. Yes, and with the boy's clothing, everything was always in perfect order. The case is also mentioned when Frank's mother bought a form for the entire courtyard on baseball, in which the synatra junior was playing.Ros Frank Salopam. The future star was much more fascinated by sports and music. And the latter is so much so that from 13 years of age, the boy began to perform in various establishments of Hoboken - there Sinatra Ros, - accompanying himself on a small Hawaiian guitar - Ukulele.
But the sluggishness did not pass without a trace - in 16 years old, the guy was excluded from school, so that even secondary education did not receive the famous performer. Not to mention the profile - the singer did not know the notebook, but it was perfectly picked up the hearing melodies.
2. Generic injuries
Speaking about the hearing, you should not forget about the following - the fact that Frank Sinatra at all managed to start singing, can be considered a miracle. After all, at birth, the future singer and the actor received a serious injury of the eardrum - he was even freed for this reason from a military call in the years of World War II, although it was rumored that the star was paying off from the service for $ 40 thousand.
Frank appeared on 6 kg weighing. In order to help such a "baby" to leave the generic paths and facilitate the suffering of the mother, the doctors used a special tool, which caused the refill damage.
The child's removal operation also left the scars on the face of Sinatra, which the performer shy to demonstrate throughout his life, diligently hiding the left side of the camera lenses.

However, in reality, instead of Hangsters, Sinetra hired a couple of lawyers who were satisfied, convincing Dorsey to refuse their claims to finance a growing star, albeit for impressive express.
And the legend was born due to the fact that the persons of the artist always had rumors about ties with Mafia. Which were partially true, because, speaking with jazz-orchestras and big bands, giving submissions in clubs and restaurants, it was impossible to do with the loops of such institutions with criminal elements. Yes, and Mario Piezo clearly chosen the image of Johnny Fontaine for his "godfather" with Sinatra.
4. Nickname
For his creative career, the synatra has changed the nickname several times. First, the listeners called the young artist just Frankie. With the growth of the popularity of the singer, fans renamed him to a voice, demonstrating the respect for the Sinatra vocal data. Then Frank turned into Mr. blue eyes. And with age and the growth of worship before the star, he became in the mouth of the people the chair.
