Debra Paget was gorgeous

Why didn’t she become a star?

Because she didn't have "it," which is always the answer to that endlessly reiterated question.

She didn't fuck the enough of the right people is a sub-answer to that question. R1.

So she married a Texas oil man like other beauties before her. FWIW, she married Louis Kung, who was Madame Chiang Kai Shek's nephew.

She resembled Elvis facially

R9 Elvis proposed to her during the filming of Love Me Tender. In a radio interview from a few years ago Debra said she loved Elvis and that they were crazy about each other but they couldn’t be together because her parents didn’t approve.

She was a pretty well-known star in the 50s. I'd say she achieved stardom

She is still with us, btw. I believe she is around 90 years old

Did she play the titular role in Gidget Goes Hawaiian?

Oh, no.

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.[4]

The only main cast member of The Ten Commandments who is still alive

I always liked her cheesy B-Movie "Princess of the Nile", which is just as silly as the snake-dance movie above and which has plenty of Deb dancing in skimpy costumes. They used to show it frequently on local TV for some reason, and I liked it then, and when I found it on youtube earlier this year, I found I still liked it!

So here's a bit of cheap and cheesy fun for you bitches.
