She started her career as a child actress. Her first television appearance was on the show of her father, The Merry Mailman, a popular New York children’s show.

She became a member of the chorus and an understudy in the original Broadway production of The Sound of Music in 1959 when Heatherton was 15 years of age, and gained her first consistent national exposure that same year as a semi-regular on The Perry Como Show, portraying an exuberant teenager with a persistent crush on Perry Como.

Heatherton released her first single that year, entitled “That’s How It Goes”/”I’ll Be Seeing You,” but she didn’t hit with it, or the three additional singles she released over the next few years.

In 1960, Heatherton had her first television role as a dramatic actress when she guest-starred as a wealthy, spoiled teen on an early episode of Route 66. During the early 1960s, she was frequently cast as a troubled teenager due to her “sexy-kid look”.

Heatherton began to gain attention in the mid-1960s for her sensual television dance, which some viewers considered shocking, and some critics derided as “sleazy eroticism”

In 1964, Heatherton appeared on The Tonight Show, where she coached Johnny Carson on the finer points of dancing “The Frug.”

In January 1965, she received major publicity following her guest appearances on the premiere episode of the teen dance show Hullabaloo.

Heatherton was also featured on several more episodes of the show, and released “Hullabaloo”, a song that she had performed on the show, on Coral Records.

Joey Heatherton Arrested

In July 1985, Heatherton was arrested and charged with theft of services for refusing to pay a $4,906 bill from a hotel and spa in Long Island where she stayed in 1984. She pleaded not guilty to the charge.

On July 8, 1985, Heatherton was arrested and charged with interfering with a government agent’s duties and disturbing the peace after she allegedly slapped and pulled the hair of a clerk at Manhattan’s U.S. Passport Agency office. In September 1986, she was acquitted of both charges.

On August 30, 1986, Heatherton was arrested for assault after she stabbed Jerry Fisher, her former boyfriend, and ex-manager, in the hand with a steak knife during an argument in Hillcrest, Rockland County, New York. Jerry Fisher was later treated at a local hospital and released. He later dropped the charge of assault against Heatherton.

After her arrest, Heatherton told police who she was, but they did not believe her, she then handed one of the officers her purse to verify her identity.

While looking through Heatherton’s purse, the officer found a foil packet with less than a gram of cocaine, and Heatherton was charged with assault and misdemeanor drug possession.

In October 1987, a court ruled that the search was unconstitutional as Heatherton was not advised that she could refuse a purse search. As a result, the misdemeanor drug possession was dropped.
