“Katie: Portrait of a Centerfold”

From Tex B – Mr. Pop – What was the first movie ever to star Kim Basinger?

Mr. Pop History – I love these questions. She first starred in a 1978 TV movie titled “Katie: Portrait of a Centerfold.” This was back in October 1978. It’s almost a trick question, but Ms. Basinger began her career in television.

Come back soon, as I answer, to the best of my knowledge, another one of your pop history/culture questions.
