Betty Curtis

Roberta Corti (21 March 1936 – 15 June 2006), known professionally as Betty Curtis, was an Italian singer active from 1957 to 2004.

Curtis grew up in the Milanese borough of Cagnola, located in the Zone 8. She started singing in night clubs at an early age and was discovered by Teddy Reno in 1958. Her debut single was a rendition of "With All My Heart" performed with the Franco Pisano Orchestra.

Curtis' song "Al di là", performed together with Luciano Tajoli, won the Sanremo Music Festival 1961. With her Sanremo winning song, Curtis represented Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 1961, held in Cannes, tying for fifth. In 1965, she returned to Sanremo with "Invece no", performed together with Petula Clark.

Curtis' version of "Chariot" ("I Will Follow Him") was used in the soundtrack of Martin Scorsese's film Goodfellas (1990) as well as Pillion (2025).
