Cybill Shepherd Talks Chemistry With ‘Moonlighting’ Costar Bruce Willis and Dating Elvis Presley

Ever since her face first splashed across magazine covers as a model in the late ’60s, Cybill Shepherd has lived a life most people only dream about. She made her film debut opposite Jeff Bridges in the coming-of-age classic The Last Picture Show, starred in The Heartbreak Kid and Taxi Driver, headlined two TV hits (Moonlighting and Cybill) and even dated Elvis Presley!

He asked me out through a mutual guy we knew and I said, ‘No, he said he’d call me himself,’” the 69-year-old beauty exclusively revealed to Closer Weekly in the magazine’s latest issue, on newsstands now. “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 theater he would rent out through midnight.”

At a recent San Antonio Film Festival screening of her latest film, Being Rose, Cybill opened up about those early days with Elvis, her chemistry with Moonlighting costar Bruce Willis, embracing her new life as a grandma and much more.
