Yvonne Přenosilová, a popular 1960s Czechoslovak singing star who later became a radio presenter, sadly passed away last week.

The dark-haired Yvonne Přenosilová appeared as a teenage singer in Miloš Foman’s 1963 film Audition and a couple of years later became a bona fide pop star.

Her best-loved songs include Czech versions of US hits, such as Roň slzy (based on Brenda Lee’s I’m Sorry), Zlý znamení (Sonny and Cher’s The Beat Goes On) and Boty proti lásce (Lee Hazelwood’s These Boots Were Made for Walking, made famous by Nancy Sinatra).
