Cybill Shepherd became an instant star in the 1970s and had a love affair with one of the most legendary rockstars of all time - Elvis Presley. The 73-year-old shot to fame from her breakthrough roles in The Last Picture Show in 1971 and then The Heartbreak Kid the next year.
Following her film success, Cybill was told at just 22 years old that Elvis wanted to meet her after being impressed by her on-screen talent. Shepherd said: "He asked me out through a mutual guy we knew and I said, 'No, he said he’d call me himself!'
"So then my best friend Jane picked up the phone and said, 'Oh my God, it’s Elvis!' We arranged to meet at a big theatre he would rent out through midnight. We were waiting for him forever. When he finally got there, everybody in the row to my right got up. In Memphis, he had kind of a Memphis mafia."
