Frances Langford Facts
Teamed up with Don Ameche on radio and on record albums as a battling married couple in "The Bickersons".

Her steamy rendition of "I'm in the Mood for Love" (from her movie Every Night at Eight (1935)) was her trademark, and captivated soldiers when she was part of Bob Hope's USO tours during World War II.

During one of their USO tours, she and Bob Hope were forced to leap out of a jeep to avoid fire from a German fighter plane. They both jumped to safety in a culvert, with Frances landing on top of Bob. Another time they spent the night in the basement of a hotel in Algiers as bombs burst above them.
