Let's Play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon

'Six Degrees of...' games were always good fun on the IMDb boards and those on certain actors' boards ran for many years. So let's try and start the tradition up again, and the obvious place to kick it off is on the board of the actor with whom the whole thing started.
The rules are simple. Player names an actor, and the next poster has to link that actor to Kevin Bacon in as few moves as possible. Example:
Player 1 names Elliot Spiers.
Player 2 might respond:
- Elliot Spiers was in Paperhouse with Gemma Jones.
- Gemma Jones was in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets with Miriam Margolyes
- Miriam Margolyes was in Balto with Kevin Bacon.
...and Player 2 would then name the next actor to link to Kevin.
Feature films or TV movies only - no series'. Try not to select names which would be too easy - linking Kevin Bacon to Sean Penn or Meryl Streep is no challenge!
Okay, here goes...
First try: Caroline Langrishe

I put neither Houston nor Presley among those names. A singer in a movie does not an actor make.
As for Warwick, if anyone is going to attempt to connect through Men in Black, it's not like she was on set with anyone in that film who was on set with Bacon - she appeared in some film footage of her on a screen.

Dionne Warwick has acted in several films, it's not such a difficult one to connect.
Dionne Warwick in Slaves with Ossie Davis
Ossie Davis in The Client with Tommy Lee Jones
Tommy Lee Jones in JFK with Kevin Bacon
