Age

Ann is now 72 years old and no longer 71. I can’t figure out how to change this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:807:8004:2A80:91DF:4218:715A:CBCA (talk) 21:37, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

wooden tone

The article is wooden in tone and not very insightful...as if the KGB had to review it. Can someone breath some life into it? 70.35.232.123 (talk • contribs) 19:30, 2 November 2006.

 ==wooden tone==
 The article is wooden in tone and not very insightful...as if the KGB had to review it. Can someone breath some life into it? [[User:70.35.232.123|70.35.232.123]] ([[User talk:70.35.232.123|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/70.35.232.123|contribs]]){{#if:19:30, 2 November 2006|&#32;19:30, 2 November 2006|}}.
-==personal information==
-Its too bad the information on her personal life doesn't seem to be available. Did she marry, does she have kids, etc? Does she have a daughter that can belt out the tunes as well as her? [[Special:Contributions/66.60.137.134|66.60.137.134]] ([[User talk:66.60.137.134|talk]]) 16:54, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
-:There is (some) information. And if you want to clarify it or add to it... [[User:Pdfpdf|Pdfpdf]] ([[User talk:Pdfpdf|talk]]) 05:43, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
-:There isn't much info on Ann's personal life in that regard. I read somewhere that she never married and has no children though. Too bad because it would be awesome to see another Ann Wilson. --[[User:RobertGary1|RobertGary1]] ([[User talk:RobertGary1|talk]]) 18:49, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
-She never married but did adopt a daughter and a son in the early 90s. I don't have the exact reference but it was shown in a "Behind the Music" episode on VH1 about 5 or 6 years ago.[[Special:Contributions/75.137.161.190|75.137.161.190]] ([[User talk:75.137.161.190|talk]]) 22:17, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
-Oddly, there's more personal information about Ann on Nancy Wilson's page. In fact, strangely, Nancy Wilson's entry is probably twice the size.
-==surgery==
-iirc she had her gastric band surgery thing shown on the web so all her fans could watch. a noteworthy thing to add, unique and interesting [[Special:Contributions/98.232.185.220|98.232.185.220]] ([[User talk:98.232.185.220|talk]]) 04:44, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
-:I think your memory may be confusing her with [[Carnie Wilson]] who had a gastric bypass in 1999, and http://www.gastric-bypass-guru.com/celebrity-gastric-bypass.html says: "Her surgery was broadcast live on the Internet".
-:The same page, and other pages, say Ann is/was "a paid spokesperson for Spotlight Health", who paid for her operation.
-:e.g. CBS 48 Hours (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/11/26/48hours/main530882.shtml)
-:''"Ann's surgery was paid for by Spotlight Health, a marketing company that hired her to bring attention to the lap band. She knows that some will question how honest she can be about her experience."''
-:I haven't yet found anything about Ann's surgery being broadcast on the web.
