Frankie Valli–Back to Being a Big Man in Town in Vegas!

May 8th, 2008

Steve Friess of LasVegasWeekly.com notes that Frankie Valli got some Vegas vindication at last weekend’s premiere of Jersey Boys.

It is hard to believe now, especially after the weekend that just was, that only a few years ago Frankie Valli walked out during a three-week contract at the Luxor and was declared by at least one entertainment writer to have essentially ended his association with Las Vegas once and for all. Hard, that is, because on Saturday the town stood up and cheered as the pipsqueak Italian from New Jersey with the priceless falsetto blew out candles at one of the city’s most elaborate and expensive birthday parties in recent memory.

Friess talks to Valli about the return of The Four Seasons to the forefront of the pop-culture scene thanks to Jersey Boys; the rivalry between the Seasons and the Beatles; Valli’s fondness for the old Vegas; and some other interesting insights from the pop icon.
