Actor Danny Bonaduce, best known for his role as Danny Partridge on the '70 show, The Partridge Family, opened up about working with Elvis Presley for the 1969 film, The Trouble with Girls.

During a September 2025 interview with That's Classic, Bonaduce, who played an unnamed musically-inclined child, said he and his mother, Betty Bonaduce, met Elvis in his dressing room during the film's production. He said that while he and his mother were in the dressing room, Elvis had an unexpected reaction to the faucets in his bathroom.

"He was so excited about the handles to the faucets. And every handle in his dressing room was either 14 karat gold or looked like it. But they were all shaped like women's legs. Every one of them," said the 66-year-old in the interview. "You know, the thing on the back of tractors, mud flaps, that girl, they look a lot like those. But the legs of those for everything you could turn off or twist was shaped like a lady's leg. And he was so proud."

Olsen, who famously played Cindy Brady on The Brady Bunch during its five-season run until 1974, spoke about her brief part as a singer in The Trouble with Girls during a 2015 interview with The Oklahoman.

She clarified that she soon changed her opinion about the singer.

“I remember that a bunch of the kids’ mothers suddenly started screaming Elvis had come out of his dressing room, and they crowded around him for autographs," recalled the 64-year-old. "So I thought, ‘What the heck. I’ll get one too.’ So I went up to him — and I’m not making this up — when he looked at me, I thought, ‘Oh, I get it. I see why they like him so much.’ He had this special aura about him. I was just dumbstruck; I couldn’t say anything. He signed the photo, handed it to me, and said, ‘Here ya go darling.’”
