“Three Little Words” (1950)
Fresh out of high school, Debbie Reynolds was given a small role in this Fred Astaire, Red Skelton and Carleton Carpenter MGM musical, sang an old standard (“I Wanna Be Loved By You”) and shot to fame.
Reynolds reunited with Carleton Carpenter to sing the 1914 song “Aba Daba Honeymoon.” The song became such a hit that MGM sent the duo touring the country to promote it and the film.
