2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

Mary Rose Foster "The Rose"

Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
Originally intended to be a biopic of Janis Joplin, “The Rose” stars Bette Midler as Mary Rose Foster (nicknamed the Rose) as a drug and alcohol addicted singer in the late 60’s. She is loud, brash, talented but massively insecure and Midler takes this character through a roller coaster and earned an Oscar nomination for her performance. The film also generated a hit song (also named the Rose) that played during the end credits. If people remember this film, this has a solid shot.
TV Show/Movie Appeared: The Rose (1979)
Actors: Bette Midler
Songs you may remember: The Rose
Why you should vote:: Midler was great in this film, and it was an Academy Award nominated performance
Why you should not vote:: If you want to be negative, you could argue that she was just trying to be like Joplin.
