10. A recent NSync hit, its title has one word repeated three times, and B) A 1960 Broadway musical loosely based on the life of Conway Twitty.

Answer: Bye Bye Bye Bye Birdie

Many people believe that 'Bye Bye Birdie' was patterned after Elvis. However, according to 'Trivial Pursuit', the answer is Conway Twitty. Evlis entered the Army in 1958, and 'Bye Bye Birdie' appeared on Broadway in April of 1960. This would mean that the show was written, the music composed, it was work-shopped and re-written, and it was moved to a Broadway stage all in a little over a year.

This feat would be almost impossible. However, Conway Twitty entered the Army several years earlier. At that time, he was a Rock-N-Roll star and had more number 1 songs over the course of his life than Elvis.

These facts, combined with the fact that the lead character's name was 'Conrad Birdie', point to the true inspiration of this show. :0)
