In the "making of" documentary on the recent "Some Like It Hot" DVD, Tony Curtis says that "a very fine voice actor" was brought in because he couldn't keep his voice 'up' consistently for the Josephine voice, and that the final result was a combination of the two. Other sources claim that the Josephine voice was entirely Paul Frees.
