Jennifer Beals <> Irene Cara. I hate when editors let mistakes like this fall through the cracks.

It's not a mistake. Cara sang and co-wrote the lyrics for "What a Feeling" from Flashdance, for which she won several awards. If you play the clip in the linked article, it's the music video for the song (which is why Beals is pictured in the video still.)

I appreciate the explanation. But I don't think it is too much to ask for them to show a photo of Irene Cara at the top of an article announcing her death. Maybe I am just an old fogey though.
