Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue?: A Memoir by Buddy Holly's Peggy Sue by Peggy Sue Gerron and Glenda Cameron (2008, Hardcover)

There is always someone who wants there 15 minutes of fame . This book is such a case , do we really need a book , written by a person , who thinks there the only one in the world ,WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO USE THE NAME 'Peggy Sue '', To write a book. trying to ride the coat tail of a legend like BUDDY HOLLY ? I think not .

Maria Elena Holly said that Peggy Sue Gerron's "Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue?" is unauthorized and will harm Holly's name, her reputation and that of her company, Holly Properties.

"It's very interesting that this woman makes up all these stories," Maria Elena Holly said from her home in Dallas. "He never, never considered Peggy Sue a friend."
Yet she writes this book ."I don't understand why people do that, especially when she knows that people know the truth," she said.
No one involved in the book's publication asked for consent to use Holly's name or image — "his likeness will be featured prominently" on the book's cover and the subtitle reads, "Memoirs of Buddy Holly's Peggy Sue," the letter said.

Buddy Holly's brother, Larry Holley, said "Peggy Sue" was not the original lyric in the song of the same name. The name Holly originally intended to use was Cindy Lou, Holly's niece, Larry Holley said.

So I guess what we have here ,is someone trying to get RICH by taking someone else's property. I say save your money BUY A BOOK ABOUT THE REAL STAR , ''BUDDY HOLLY . Not some HAS-BEEN .
