First Jeff Conaway and now her. The curse of Betty Rizzo lives.

I thought she was like 63 when she was in the movie...

Cha Cha: They call me Cha Cha because I'm the best dancer at St. Bernadette's.
Frenchy: With the worst reputation.

Do you all remember a show called "Where Are They Now?" on VH1? The premise of the show is self-explanatory, but they would have theme episodes and one was on the cast of "Grease."

I remember the piece they did on Charles: She worked as a sort of coach for men undergoing sex changes to become women and she would train them on how to walk, the correct posture so they could seem more "womanly." I just thought it was an unusual job for someone to partake, and thought it was cool she was helping some people get through a very daunting transition.
