According to [1] she was born in 1944 and her sister was born in 1942. What's correct? --LA2 07:07, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

IMDB also says 1944, as does The World Almanac. It was changed by some a-none on Groundhog Day. I'm changing it back. :) Wahkeenah 07:21, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Done. I have to admit, though, that it's kind of hard to believe she recorded Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree at age 14. However, until new evidence surfaces, beyond a-none postings with no source given, we should go with the official story. Wahkeenah 07:23, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Why not? Wasn't Vanessa Paradis also 14 when she did Joe le taxi? It's 14 year old boys that cannot sing. --LA2 07:35, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

You've got a point. Anyway, 1944 is the official year, and we should stick with it until or if there is contrary evidence, and even then, it should be clearly noted that 1944 is still the "official" birth year (see the Barbara Walters article for a similar controversy).

Brenda Lee was indeed born in 1944. She starting singing in talent shows at just the age of five! She was first "Paid" for singing at the age of nine, and was first recorded on the 30th July 1956 aged 12. Vera, Chuck & Dave 17:00, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[2]
