“The video for Peggy Lee’s ‘Fever<\/a>‘ came out in 2021, 63 years after its original release. In it, a group of dancers slink and stretch around an old London theater, racier imagery than the singer is usually associated with. Lee’s estate is managed by her granddaughter, Holly Foster Wells, who is always on the lookout for new opportunities to showcase the singer’s music. ‘When we did that “Fever” video, hardcore Peggy Lee fans, that wasn’t really for them,’ Wells said. ‘That was to attract new fans, and those new fans love it.’ It was directed by Charlie Di Placido, who is known for choreographically innovative videos for the group Jungle, and has amassed nearly 10 million views on YouTube. Fans are not only making their own videos set to ‘Fever,’ but are also using Lee’s renditions of ‘Is That All There Is?’ and ‘Big Spender.'” [Source: Eric Ducker, New York Times<\/em>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
