Lola Falana

Lola Falana impressed the world with her talent in acting, dancing, and singing for three and a half decades. She first started her career as a stage performer and then eventually joined the cast of the Broadway musical Golden Boy. Later that year, she shifted her career to singing, and the rest is history. Lola is a one-of-a-kind artist with all sorts of talents imaginable.

Acting on screen and acting on stage are two different things and timing, but she showed that she can have the best of both worlds. At the height of her career, she made guest appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson and The Muppet Show. She also performed at sold-out shows in Las Vegas, eventually becoming the “Queen of Las Vegas”. Now, she continues to live in Las Vegas and even founded a ministry called The Lambs of God. She must have made the right investments early on in her career for her to be able to retire early.
