This WEEK’s PARADE is totally Jersey-Style, with an exciting preview of the JERSEY BOYS movie with Frankie Valli and the actors who play The Four Seasons! Below is a preview & a video of their photo shoot. Enjoy!

PARADE: A lot of people have said that the Four Seasons’ legacy was severely undervalued before Jersey Boys rescued it. Do you agree?

Frankie Valli: They’re right. A lot of it was our own fault. We were out of the public eye for a long time; we hardly did interviews. We were so afraid that if anybody found out we had members [Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi] who’d done time, radio and record companies wouldn’t have anything to do with us. But I think that [former reticence] had a lot to do with the success of the play. When we were trying to get Jersey Boys off the ground, I’d get, “The Four Seasons? Who’s going to care? There’s the Beatles, there’s the Rolling Stones.” But people know those stories. Here was a story no one knew.
