Paul Anka – Age 81
Having studied music theory at the ‘St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral,’ Paul Anka started singing as a schoolboy with his first single, ‘I Confess,’ being recorded at the age of 14 only. The song that took him to stardom though, was the best-selling single ‘Diana’ which ranked number one on both US and Canadian music charts.
Anka’s other hit songs include ‘Lonely Boy,’ You’re Having My Baby,’ and ‘She’s a Lady’ which he penned himself. The celebrated songwriter also co-wrote three songs with the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, which became massive hits. Anka has also starred in many TV specials and series, films, and music documentaries.
