Name: Annette Funicello

Claim To Fame: Annette got her start as a Mouskateer in the Mickey Mouse Club. She quickly grew to be one of the most popular. I'd have to say to this day she might be the most popular Mouskateer ever.

It's interesting to not that she was the last one chosen to be a Mousketeer. She was the 24th chosen of the 24 kids.

She then moved on to be a teen idol, starring with Frankie Avalon in the Beach movies. In fact her and Frankie starred in 8 movies together. I sure loved those and still will watch them whenever they are on.

Where Is She Now: Annette's condition has deteriorated due to MS and her life is now filled with constant struggle. Even breathing can be difficult.

She doesn't get out much anymore. Her last public appearance that I can find was back in 1999.

She has a collectable bear business.

Frankie Avalon says that everywhere he goes people ask
him about Annette.
