I Kissed the King - Elvis Presley, That Is Quiz

Answer: Shelley Fabares

Shelley Fabares was in three movies with Elvis. Those are: "Girl Happy" (1965), "Spinout" (1966) and "Clambake" (1967). Of course, the rumor mill was active when the two stars were filmed together but it was (apparently) never more than rumor. Shelley Fabares married another star - this one from TV - Mike Farrell in 1984.

Answer: Mary Ann Mobley

Mary Ann Mobley was middle eastern royalty in "Harum Scarum" (1965). And, she had a fabulously royal sounding name - well, for 1965, that is. She was Princess Shalimar. Surely, one of the most beautiful damsels in distress ever to be saved by a not-so-conventional hero. After starring with Elvis, Mobley was "second fiddle" again in 1966 - this time to Janet Leigh in "Three On A Couch".

Answer: Donna Douglas

Douglas won the part of Frankie with very little movie experience. She had appeared in "Li'l Abner" (1959) and "Lover Come Back" (1961) but "Frankie and Johnny" (1966) was her most prominent movie role. And, Donna Douglas was a lovely choice as Frankie, playing opposite Elvis as Johnny.

The two actors admittedly had much in common and became close friends. Both seemed to have a deep sense of the ethereal and often shared reading materials with each other.

Answer: Joan Blackman

Even though Joan Blackman appeared with Elvis Presley in two films, "Blue Hawaii" (1961) and "Kid Galahad" (1962), she was universally better known as a regular cast of the prime time television soap opera, "Peyton Place" (American TV - 1964-1969). "Blue Hawaii" contained the popular song by Elvis, "Can't Help Falling In Love," which would become the closing song for his concerts in the 1970s.

Answer: Juliet Prowse

Juliet Prowse was indeed a talented dancer. Remember "the girl who offended Krushchev" media hype about her dance in "Can-Can" (1960)? Just a couple of years after she filmed "G.I. Blues" (1960), she was engaged to be married to none other than Frank Sinatra.

It would not be a very long engagement, though. Prowse did remove her dancing shoes to play a disc jockey in the (weird, if not disturbing) "Who Killed Teddy Bear" (1965) with Sal Mineo.

Answer: Ann-Margaret

By many accounts Ann-Margaret was said to be the favorite co-star of Elvis. Their chemistry in the film "Viva Las Vegas" (1964) was undeniable. Ann-Margaret had already appeared in another musical, "Bye Bye Birdie" (1963) before starring with Elvis. She would later prove herself a worthy actress away from the musicals with roles in such films as "Carnal Knowledge" (1971), "I Ought To Be In Pictures" (1982) and "Grumpy Old Men" (1993).

Answer: Stella Stevens

Stella was not particularly in demand as a singer but in the movie, "Girls! Girls! Girls!" (1962), her character was a night club singer. This gave her the opportunity to sing (at least parts of) three songs with Elvis. And, she had appeared in "Li'l Abner" (1959) - with another Elvis co-star, Donna Douglas.

She would also have a starring role in the movie "The Nutty Professor" (1963) opposite Jerry Lewis.

Answer: Nancy Sinatra

Though her voice was heard singing songs for the movies "You Only Live Twice" (1967) and "Kill Bill Vol. 1" (2003), "Speedway" (1968) with Elvis was Nancy Sinatra's last starring role for at least four decades. Before "Speedway" (1968), Nancy had appeared in the comedy films, "The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini" (1966) and "The Last of the Secret Agents?" (1966).

Answer: Barbara Eden

Barbara Eden's character is the girlfriend of Elvis Presley's character in "Flaming Star" (1960). Both were credited with excellent performances in this western drama. Although NEITHER had been the first choice for their roles. The role of the son of a white father and a Native American mother went to Elvis only after Marlon Brando declined it. Barbara Steele had been consigned for Eden's role before Eden was finally given the part. Extremely well known for her role on TV as "Jeannie", Eden also appeared in the movies: "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" (1961), "Five Weeks in a Balloon" (1962) and "Harper Valley PTA" (1978).

Answer: Mary Tyler Moore

Mary Tyler Moore must have been a natural choice to play a nun. Even relatively new to show business in the late 1960s, Moore was already known as much for her moral standards as she was her beauty and personality. "Change of Habit" (1969) had been targeted as a Mary Tyler Moore film. Hard to believe The King was an afterthought. Nonetheless, audiences enjoyed it enough for it to do rather well at the box office.

It would be almost 11 years later when Mary Tyler Moore would get the Oscar nomination for her role in "Ordinary People" (1980).
