Glennis

I cannot believe no one has mentioned the Glamorous Glennis, the Bell X-1 plane that broke the sound barrier on October 14, 1947. Its pilot, Captain Charles E. “Chuck” Yeager of the United States Air Force, named it after his wife.

Glennis Lorimer (born Glennis Browne; 1913 – 1968) was a British actress, who appeared in a number of films during the 1930s. She also appeared in the Gainsborough Pictures logo before the opening credits of films by that studio. She made her debut in the 1933 film Britannia of Billingsgate. Her last film appearance was in the 1939 Will Hay comedy Ask a Policeman.

Glennis Grace (real name Glenda Batta) is a Dutch-Curacao singer who represented the Netherlands in 2005 Eurovision with "My Impossible Dream". She did not qualify through to the finals.
