Fran Jeffries , (born Frances Makris in San Jose California in 18 May 1937) was a singer/actress/model in the 1960s and early-1970s. She had a cameo in the 1963 film "The Pink Panther", in which she sang a song called "Meglio Stasera (It Had Better Be Tonight)" while sashaying around a fireplace. She also sang a number in the first sequel, "A Shot in the Dark." Her figure was highlighted, albeit briefly, in a minor role in "Sex and the Single Girl". In each of these films her most marketable asset--fanny wiggling--prominently held the spotlight. To that end, she was featured to good advantage in "Playboy magazine" a few years later when her career was faltering, in 1971 at the age of 35 titled titled "Frantastic!". Ten years later she disrobed a second time for Playboy's lenses with a much more provocative and suggestive pictorial in 1982--at a youthful-looking age of 45 titled "Still Frantastic!".
