According to my friend's site originalsproject Helen recorded "It's My Party" before Lesley Gore:
"North London teenager Helen Shapiro zipped to Nashville for some sessions during a break in her early 1963 UK tour (with a group called the Beatles opening for her!), recording "It's My Party" at that time."
He also says that Phil Spector produced a version by the Crystals (actually the Blossoms) but it's never been issued.

When ever I saw Amy Winehouse I thought of Helen as her grandmother.
I'm digging Beatles Anthology 4! Thx for this
She toured with the Beatles. The Beatles were the opening act!
Great cover song too
That's adorable!!! 😎
Wow! I guessed that Ringo would be the missing Fab 4 member. I was dead wrong.
Yes, you were…because Paul is dead!
