The group consisted of lead singer Priscilla Paris (January 4, 1945 – March 5, 2004), her older sister Albeth Carole Paris, and their middle sister Sherrell Paris.[1] They reached the peak of their success in October 1961 with the hit single "I Love How You Love Me", which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart,[2] and sold over one million copies.[3] Some of the group's other hit songs include the US Top 40single "He Knows I Love Him Too Much" (March 1962, No. 34), "All Through The Night" (1961),[4] "Be My Boy" (No. 56), "Let Me Be The One" (No. 87), and "Dream Lover" (No. 91).[5]
The Paris Sisters appeared in the 1962 British rock film It's Trad, Dad! (released in the U.S. as Ring-a-Ding Rhythm) directed by Richard Lester.[6] In the film, they performed the Spector-produced song "What Am I to Do?"[7] Also early in the 1960s, the Paris Sisters sang the jingle for Diet Rite soda.
Sherrell Paris later served as a production assistant on The Price Is Right and as host Bob Barker's personal assistant until she was released in 2000.[8]
Priscilla Paris died on March 5, 2004, from injuries suffered in a fall at her home in Pays de la Loire, France.[9] She was 59.[10]
Albeth Paris died in Palm Springs, California, on December 5, 2014. She was 79.[11]
