Vlasta the "Queen Of The Polka" on The Tonight Show

[@chesterproudfoot9864]

Vlasta was terrific! Just watched her first appearance on Carson (1985). Great fun!

[@buckroo8424]

As a boy I would watch my mom listen and watch the Polka Parade on TV as she sang along and clapped her hands. Such delight to see my Mom so happy in long ago days!

That was the best show that Johnny ever had in the 30 yrs. I subscribed right away !

[@Maggiolone85]

RIP to my former neighbor and queen of Polka. Svengoolie and Vlasta and Berwyn made me the weirdo I am today

[@JudoLover71]

Growing up in Chicago I would always see her on TV!

[@johnsjohnson448]

My Aunt Avis and Uncle Ted used to ALWAYS watch the Polka Show on Channel 20 in Chicago EVERY Saturday night!

Love it - how many showbiz people can sing with this degree of joy today?

[@chester-v8w]

Your comment is right on target - nobody on this earth could match her joy and enthusiasm and love for everybody. Need more people in this world like her for sure.

Vlasta Krsek

[@gregoryschmidt1233]

Too bad she didn't play a real Czech polka, of which I'm sure she knows many.

[@GenXJeff35]

There's only one Vlasta!

[@wbgo]

Where is she now?

[@PaulfromChicago]

Her Highness' palace was in Berwyn, but she reigns in Polka heaven now.
