Shelley in a French ad for Charlie Hit Parade, 1980
In 1980, Shelley appeared in a French-language ad promoting the latest Charlie Hit Parade colors. The Charlie Collection came up with new hit colors for that year - namely Jazzy Lilac, Bongo Berry, Punk Pink, Boogie Woogie Blue, Rose Sonata, Be Bop Grape, Rock 'N Roll Red, Fantasia Plum and Keyboard Curry. In addition, Charlie Hit Parade was also a musical album that compiled a set of recordings recommended by Charlie for the Charlie Girl in everyone. The French-language ad promoting the latest Charlie Hit Parade colors proclaimed "Charlie Hit Parade, des couleurs qui donnent le ton! La senteur no 1 Revlon" which translates to "Charlie Hit Parade, colors that set the tone! From Revlon's no. 1 scent." The ad featured Shelley tinkling the ivories as her Charlie perfume ad co-star, renowned American cabaret singer and pianist Bobby Short, looked on. In her strapless scarlet number, Shelley looked absolutely sensational.
