Ronald and Ruby, a racially mixed duo scored the Spring of 1958 with "Lollipop." Their real names were Beverly Ross and Lee Morris. A Black male singing with a White female raised eyebrows in the 50's, and to my knowledge the duo never appeared on American Bandstand or graced the cover or folds of 16 Magazine. They collaborated as songwriters before and after their hit on songs that includes "Young And Hungry For Love," "Frankenstein Rock," "Fat Pat," "Soul Mates," "Don't Come To My Party," and "The Ghost Of Love." "Lollipop" went to #20 but was hurt by a cover by the Chordettes'. The Mudlarks also covered it in Britain, but Ross didn't mind, she shared co-writers credits with Julius Dixon, so the more the merrier.
