I think her husband even gave interviews to soap magazines, which was...a bit surprising. Or maybe he didn't and they just did articles about his statements. I don't remember. Either way it was one of the first times that the soap magazines delved into personal lives that way.

Billboard March 1955

The pop song market was very much in evidence this week, both on the best -selling pop single chart and the top EP listings. The "Ballad of Davy Crockett," which was plugged into hit proportions by several airings over Walt Disney's ABC -TV program, shows up on the top 30 retail chart in three different places this week, while Columbia's EP "Joanne Sings," featuring TV soap opera queen Mary Stuart, jumped into 12th place on the EP chart in its first appearance.

The case of "Joanne Sings" offers even more conclusive proof of TV's potential power in the record market, since Mary Stuart is unknown to the disk buying public as a recording artist. However, she obviously is known to them as the star of one of CBS -TV's top daytime soap operas, because they have bought enough copies of her album to land her in the No. 12 spot on the EP chart this week.
