surgery

iirc she had her gastric band surgery thing shown on the web so all her fans could watch. a noteworthy thing to add, unique and interesting 98.232.185.220 (talk) 04:44, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

I think your memory may be confusing her with Carnie Wilson who had a gastric bypass in 1999, and http://www.gastric-bypass-guru.com/celebrity-gastric-bypass.html says: "Her surgery was broadcast live on the Internet".

The same page, and other pages, say Ann is/was "a paid spokesperson for Spotlight Health", who paid for her operation.

e.g. CBS 48 Hours (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/11/26/48hours/main530882.shtml)

"Ann's surgery was paid for by Spotlight Health, a marketing company that hired her to bring attention to the lap band. She knows that some will question how honest she can be about her experience."

I haven't yet found anything about Ann's surgery being broadcast on the web.

personal information

Its too bad the information on her personal life doesn't seem to be available. Did she marry, does she have kids, etc? Does she have a daughter that can belt out the tunes as well as her? 66.60.137.134 (talk) 16:54, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

There is (some) information. And if you want to clarify it or add to it... Pdfpdf (talk) 05:43, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

There isn't much info on Ann's personal life in that regard. I read somewhere that she never married and has no children though. Too bad because it would be awesome to see another Ann Wilson. --RobertGary1 (talk) 18:49, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

She never married but did adopt a daughter and a son in the early 90s. I don't have the exact reference but it was shown in a "Behind the Music" episode on VH1 about 5 or 6 years ago.75.137.161.190 (talk) 22:17, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Oddly, there's more personal information about Ann on Nancy Wilson's page. In fact, strangely, Nancy Wilson's entry is probably twice the size. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.86.238.129 (talk) 20:05, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Why doesn't Ann perform more Heart songs in concert ?

Just saw Ann last night at DTE Energy Music Theatre outside of Detroit. Of her eight song set, there was only the song Barracuda from Heart, the remainder were cover songs. Any idea why she doesn't perform more songs from Heart, the band she is most widely known for ? 143.85.29.18 (talk) 17:16, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Vocal artistry

I’m a bit shocked that there is no mention in this article of Wilson’s extraordinary and distinctive vocal work. Fielding99 (talk) 17:47, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

Instruments played

She plays flute in concert. On the Lovemongers album she’s listed as acoustic and electric guitars, bass, flute. DavidRavenMoon (talk) 20:17, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

Yes she does. - FlightTime (open channel) 20:26, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
