Or better yet- Charo as Carolyn! How about her shaking her culo at The Blue Whale, followed by a strong lecture at home from "Tio Roger" as she throws a tantrum, making her cuchi-cuchi the ABC censor's worst nightmare!!! Of course Barnabas would have to reach for the Maalox after biting her, since she's a hot tamale!
Of course there was the little-known fact that D.C. originally tried to get Elvis to play Quentin, but Col. Parker (no relation to Lara!) wanted too much money and demanded that Bob Cobert write a song a week for E.P.!
And someone once told me that right after being fired from the "Helen Lawson" role in Valley of the Dolls, Judy Garland was briefly considered for the part of Julia Hoffman, but while dining at El Morocco night, she left the audition script behind as she went to the ladies room, and it was picked up by the occupants in the adjoining booth- Sam and Grayson Hall!
