Midi-Midinette - Conny Froboess

Cornelia Froboess (born October 28, 1943) is a German actress and a teen idol of the 1950s and early '60s. During that time, Froboess appeared in many musical films, especially after the rock 'n' roll wave had hit Germany. In those comedy films, she would often portray the typical Berliner Göre (girl from Berlin) who craves for independence from her all-too-strict parents. As Conny Froboess, she had her first hit in 1951, aged eight, with a song written by her father.
