Mafia links to showbiz success?

Apart from Sinatra, did anyone else have their showbiz career/success launched by the Mafia? I heard that the rock band Kiss had LCN help, but I'm skeptical about that...

Tony Danza, Mickey Rourke,Steven Seagal..

Jerry Blavat

Good choice,practically made almost in the closeness way...but Tony Danza?, didn't know about that one.

Many Jazz musicians like Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, Fletcher Henderson and Benny Goodman.

Was James Caan helped? How did the mafia help Mickey Rourke?

Roulette Records ran by Morris Levy was a front for the Genovese family. They had a few hits from artists like Tommy James & The Shondells,Count Basie,Bill Haley and His Comets and Louis Armstrong

Hesh on the Sopranos is based on Levy.

Scorsese is still considering making a movie about Levy and Tommy James.

That might be pretty good He was around for a long time
