JERRY LEE LEWIS – 85 YEARS OLD

Jerry Lee Lewis has the potential to become one of the legendary icons of rock and roll music. He performed hit singles that made him famous globally. His hit music such as Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On and Great Balls of Fire made him famous worldwide as The Killer and more often, rock and roll’s first great wild man. His worldwide fame quickly vanished after a shocking marriage to his cousin who was only thirteen at that time.

Credits to his style of music and his live performances, he was able to bounce back from his controversies and even won several Grammys awards. Now at age 85, Lewis is married and still active in the music industry. In February 2019, he suffered a minor stroke and experienced a moderate setback, but made a full recovery and started touring again. As for his legacy, Lewis wants his music to be remembered more than his personal life.
