She was born Charlotte Louisa Collins in the East End of London in 1865 and started out in music hall at the age of 11 or 12 in 1877 in a skipping rope dance act with her younger sisters, Eliza (Lizzie) and Mary Ann (Marie) as "The Three Sisters Collins" .

However, she is best known as the popularizer of the song "Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay!", which she sang on the music hall stage as she danced a skirt dance. She died on 2 / 3 May 1910 at St Pancras, aged only 44, and is buried at Saint Pancras and Islington Cemetery, East Finchley, London.
