JERRY LEE LEWIS, 83 YEARS OLD
Jerry Lee Lewis was born into a poor and religious family who decided to sell their house in order to buy him a piano! Luckily, the gamble paid off as this proved to be the beginning of his musical career. Also known as “The Killer,” he made a name for himself after he wrote and sold a song with J.W. Brown, his cousin. The client was none other than Sam Philips, the president of Sun Records. Back then, it was not the norm for singers to perform songs written by someone else so he was considered a pioneer in this aspect as well as for the introduction of piano to rock ‘n’ roll. He first got married at the tender age of 16, and he got divorced six times since then. He has experienced many personal hardships and tragedies like losing his kids and fighting alcoholism. Fortunately, Lewis was able to conquer these difficulties and continues to perform today.
