Saving Her Son’s Life

Another amazing about Doris is that she might have saved her son from the infamous mass murderer Charles Manson. After Terry’s refusal to work with the criminal, the cult leader attempted to get revenge. At the time, Terry was renting a place at 10050 Cielo Drive with his partner Candice Bergen. When he told his mother about what happened, Doris told him to hole up in a house that she owned. It just so happened that Manson sent people to the Cielo Drive property. That was certainly a close call, especially considering the fact that these were the same people who murdered Sharon Tate and four others in 1969.

Almost 90 But Still Got It

She might have grown up and old, but don’t let that fool you into thinking she is frail and weak! In fact, Doris can still sing as beautifully as ever. It took her two decades, but Day finally released a new album in 2011. It was called My Heart and primarily served as a compilation of the songs produced by her late son. The album was able to make it to the UK Top 10, which made her the oldest artist to achieve such an accomplishment. The royalties helped raise funds for her new animal protection organization, Doris Day Animal League.
