Anyone Know Where Debra Paget ...


... is these days?
I used to think she was one of the prettiest women in the movies.

She and Vincent Price, in TEN COMMANDMENTS and TALES OF TERROR, always had great chemistry.

Paget retired from the screen after marrying a Chinese millionaire in 1962.

She deffinetly has that certain 60's look. Cathy Marchant (the evil Price chickie) was incredible too but she lacks that perfect 60's look that Nancy Sinatra had, Anjanette Comer had and a few others.

I like waking up in the morning not knowing who I'll meet or where I'll end up: The Titanic

Some cool tidbits


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debra_Paget

Paget became a born-again Christian. She hosted her own show, An Interlude with Debra Paget on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), a Christian network, in the early 1990s, and also was involved in Praise the Lord. She occasionally appears on TBN as a guest.


During production of Love Me Tender (1956), Elvis Presley became smitten with Paget, who in 1997 claimed the singer even proposed marriage. At the time, however, the media reported that she was romantically linked with Howard Hughes and nothing came of this.[8] A 1956 article quoted Paget's comments about Hughes:

I was in love with Howard for two years, and I don't care who knows it... I was never alone with him in the whole two years. Mother was always with us... I haven't seen Howard for a long time now, because I'm a one-man woman, and I've got to have a one-woman man... But I'll always remember Howard with fondness.[2]

While Love Me Tender marked the beginning of Elvis Presley’s Hollywood career, it came at the same time that Debra Paget’s career began to decline. In 1955 20th Century Fox had cancelled her exclusive contract after she appeared in a non-Fox film. After Love Me Tender she had roles in 12 more films before retiring from Hollywood at the age of 29 in 1962. She married three times and had one son. Debra Paget currently lives in Houston, Texas. | Alan Hanson (July 2009)

Someone isn't social. She must be grumpy in her old age .
