Meet our next Queen of Clubs and the final Sally in our first season! She was a dancer and club kid until she took over her first club and helped launch the original discotheque craze in the 1950s. In the 1970s she took her brand global and installed nightclubs in her name in cities around the world. At one time in history (and with the help of a Concorde jet) you could party at one of her hotspots 17 out of every 24 hours. Karl Lagerfeld said "she simply invented nightclubbing." Who Is She?
