Check out "The Lady Loves Me" "What'd I Say" and "Come On Everybody" from the Movie "Viva Las Vegas" to see Elvis And Ann together. Elvis and Ann met on the set of the Movie Viva Las Vegas in 1963-1964 and the sparks flew on and off Screen, they were together for about a year when Elvis Broke it off and got Engaged to Priscilla who he Married in 1967.
Ann Margret was amazing. She was a staple doing USO tours with Bob Hope during Vietnam. The troops loved her and she loved "her gentlemen" right back, even long after the war ended.
she was part of the Bob Hope's USO show along with Raquel Welch and came to our isolated- remote Phu Cat AFB in VietNam where I was stationed back in late 60's. Koolsville.
She was in a few movies with Elvis and she played Roger Daltry, from The WHO, mother in the musical, Tommy circa 1975. I think she won a best actress in a musical award for that performance. She also had variety shows specials every now and then. There’s an awesome video of a duet with Tina Turner here on TH-cam.
She was in “Viva Las Vegas” co starring Elvis. She nearly out “Elvised” him as far as charisma and talent is concerned. They ended up great friends up to the day he died.
Jamal, if you want to see what a great actress Miss Ann is, you have to check out "Grumpy Old Men". Jack Lemon, Walter Mathieu, Burgess Meridith & Ann Margaret. And in " Grumpier Old Men", they toss Sophia Loren into the mix. Great movies!
Man I saw her in a movie where she was dancing and she hit that James Brown on the good foot dance he used to do, sliding and spinnin' across the floor and I was like Dayummm lol
In 1972, when she fell from a scaffold during a Lake Tahoe production number and he refused to let the doctors open up her crushed face, insisting on flying her to Los Angeles where surgery from inside the mouth repaired the serious damage and left her famous beauty intact. She also had a broken arm.
Jamel, here's the screen test by Ann Margaret that you should really watch! She sings so beautifully on this one! "Ann-Margret - "It Might As Well Be Spring" Screen Test 1961"
Ann-Margret is quite the survivor. She started out at the end of the 50's while still a teen, was shortly afterwards discovered by George Burns who took her under his wing and nurtured her along until she was signed to her first film. She had a major success with her third movie Bye, Bye Birdie followed the next year with another major hit in Viva Las Vegas this time with Elvis Presley. After that she was a major star but mired in superficial flicks until she gave a breakthrough performance in the film Carnal Knowledge which resulted in the first of her two Oscar nominations (the other was for Best Actress in the Who's trippy musical "Tommy". ) Mixed in with her movie work she continued to perform in nightclubs and it was while preparing to make her entrance in a Lake Tahoe club that she fell 22 feet to the stage when the wires of the platform she was to be lowered on became tangled. She landed on her shoulder and face and suffered extensive injures and underwent elaborate surgeries but through sheer determination was back on stage within three months. After her recovery she returned to films and spent the next several decades as a respected character actress moving between movies and television collecting multiple nominations along the way. While she remained active her career was interrupted at points when she had to care for her husband of 50 years Roger Smith who suffered from myasthenia gravis for many years until his death in 2017. But she's still in there pitching having just appeared in a film this year. An admirable woman, and quite beautiful, with a career worth investigating.
I love this song....never heard her sing it...I've only heard Patsy Clines version...a gift from my grandmother one Sunday...she was like listen to this girl 🤣🤣 xx
This was her screen test for the movie, Bye Bye Birdie, a huge hit she starred in that was wonderful musical based on the US Army drafting Elvis Presley at the height of his popularity in the late 50s. First a hit Broadway show, then the very entertaining movie. If you can find it, watch it!!! LOTS of fun, LOTS of GREAT music!! Ann Margaret also starred with Elvis in a couple of his movies - find the dance sequence from Viva Las Vegas!! Lots more movies to her credit, & a very long, successful career as a nightclub headliner who put on a fabulous show!!!
Five years later Ann Margaret got second billing to Dean Martin in "Murderers' Row." 1966. It's a Matt Helm film. A fun unserious spy movie, that has charm. It's a solid B.
Ann Margret has been called the "female" Elvis. They loved each other very much, but he had already promised Priscilla's parents that he would marry her.
She was top sex symbol 1960 s and 70s. I went to see Any Given Sunday for her but Jamie Foxx shined in that film and was not surprised when his career hit big a few years later.
She did a number on the Tonight Show when Johnny Carson hosted that was so hot that when she finished, he said he was glad his grandmother was dead because seeing that would have killed her.
Brother Jamal, Ann Margret played Tommy's Mother in "The Who - Tommy" movies. You probably know "Pinball Wizard" right? That's from the "Rock Opera" "Tommy" . You should react to "Christmas Morning" or "Excitement at Your Feet" ...or check out the movie for yourself. Tina Turner, Elton John, Eric Clapton, and more+ "The Who" of course! Man Ann Margret was a huge part of the success of that movie/album. It's a full length movie and it's trippy but, it's gotta be on your bucket list of music you need to check out !! ✌️❤️🎶🎸🙏
just thoughts … she was born in Sweden and 20 yo at the time. the character she played 2 yr later in her big break, "Bye, Bye, Birdie" [think "Elvis Presley fanfic"] had just turned 15, gets busy w the 'Elvis' character who is arrested for statutory rape. a big hit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "sex-kitten" is her 'thing'.
When I started dating my now wife, when we were younger. My friend’s father would always get drunk and try to hit on my girlfriend. In a joking matter, but he always says she’s splitting image of Ann-Margret. I’m now seeing this,I completely understand! She did look like her. And my wife is still as beautiful as ever. And my friend’s father is now dead😂
Always thought Ann-Margaret was the most sexy woman in entertainment. Watch her scenes with Elvis! She was amazing with Vietnam vets and going to entertain the troops.
Ann Margaret was in a few movies with Elvis & they did have great chemistry as far as dancing & acting together. There were rumors but I won’t go there!
jamal, as far as i'm concerned, Ann made the wrong choice to do movies instead of a recording career-- With the right band/songwriting, she could have competed against any of the 70's rocker chicks because her dancing was just as dynamic as her singing- And that-Smmoooooking hot figure!!
This would NOT have appeared on TV in 1961- NO WAY. Not dressed like that. Not dancing like that. No way Jose. Extraordinary talent but she would have had to put a dress on and tone it WAY down on TV in 1961.. Hell you couldn't say the word pregnant on TV- men and women couldn't SIT on the same bed- and they were all double beds on TV.
I'm guessing you've forgotten the way the June Taylor dancers and other female dance troupes dressed on TV in the 50's and 60's. And performers like Abby Lane, Anita Ekberg, and even the rare television appearances by Marylin Monroe. There was definitely some sexy woman on TV back then on variety shows and even as guests on early comedy shows of the era. Ann Mageret made her fist television appearance three months after this audition on the Jack Benny show. It seemed like the censors were more focused on the sitcoms and the portrayal of family situations.

She's in the Who movie Tommy. If you haven't seen it you might want to check it out.

Extremely talented, extremely beautiful, classy, humble. She’s very protective of her relationship with Elvis. She loves him still.
Ann Margret is the BOMB 💣 💯
AM in the opening & closing of 'Bye Bye Birdie" is to die for!
YES!
She's still beautiful 👍
Watch the grumpy old men series!
They were hilarious, especially Burgess Meredith 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
She was/is utterly amazing.
And yeah, she and Elvis were an item.
Ann Margret was gorgeous then and still beautiful now. That red hair🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
She was only 20 years old. Such a beauty, and a talent.
Ann Margret was amazing. She was a staple doing USO tours with Bob Hope during Vietnam. The troops loved her and she loved "her gentlemen" right back, even long after the war ended.
She was as loved by Viet Nam vets as Jane Fonda was hated.
That was absolutely the 60s! Ann Margret was and is so beautiful and talented! She's the whole package! Thanks Jamel! 💙✌
Sooooo beautiful, she was the real deal. GORGEOUS❤️❤️❤️
Oh my god. Now JAMAL has to watch Grumpy Old Men.
she was part of the Bob Hope's USO show along with Raquel Welch and came to our isolated- remote Phu Cat AFB in VietNam where I was stationed back in late 60's. Koolsville.
She was a seriously hot number back then. She was also a helluva nice person. She even did an episode of The Flintstones as Ann Margrock, lol!
She was in a few movies with Elvis and she played Roger Daltry, from The WHO, mother in the musical, Tommy circa 1975. I think she won a best actress in a musical award for that performance.

Yeah, Elvis loved her dearly.
I love Ann Margret.
My brother's lifetime crush! She was tremendous in Viva Las Vegas with Elvis Presley.
Love Ann-Margret!! She is so talented!! 💖💖💖💖
I used to have an Ann-Margret poster right next to a Farrah Fawcett poster in my room when I was in Jr. High 👀👀😂😂
Was she sitting on a motorcycle
My Dad went to high school with her. She was already a star even as a freshman.
Jamal, if you want to see what a great actress Miss Ann is, you have to check out "Grumpy Old Men". Jack Lemon, Walter Mathieu, Burgess Meridith & Ann Margaret. And in " Grumpier Old Men", they toss Sophia Loren into the mix. Great movies!
Grumpy Old Men is amazing it's one of those movies I can watch over and over again.
@@thepayne7862 Same here!!
Costared with Elvis in Viva Las Vegas. Great dance and sing sequences in that movie of the two of them.
Loved Bye Bye Birdie. She was even a character in The Flintstones, Ann Margrock!
Ann Margaret has ALWAYS had it and still does.
Man I saw her in a movie where she was dancing and she hit that James Brown on the good foot dance he used to do, sliding and spinnin' across the floor and I was like Dayummm lol
That movie is The Swinger Great
In 1972, when she fell from a scaffold during a Lake Tahoe production number and he refused to let the doctors open up her crushed face, insisting on flying her to Los Angeles where surgery from inside the mouth repaired the serious damage and left her famous beauty intact. She also had a broken arm.
Was in an Elvis film and did a musical Bye bye Birdie. Had a stage accident and her face damaged but still beautiful
Viva Las Vegas or Bye Bye Birdie
That was that old corny Hollywood style jazz dancing- she was fabulous and capable of much more !
My introduction to Ann Margret came via The Flintstones. "Ann-Margrock"
Ann was beautiful! During the Vietnam War, she traveled with the USO entertaining the troops. I think she and Bob Hope did some shows together.
I think Ann Margret was my first boyhood crush of a celebrity as far as I remember, it also opened my young eyes to Swedish women.
Jamel, here's the screen test by Ann Margaret that you should really watch! She sings so beautifully on this one!
"Ann-Margret - "It Might As Well Be Spring" Screen Test 1961"
Oh yes , she’s done a couple of movies with the KING ❤
That girl had it going ALL THE WAY on!

The scene in "swingers" when she sings "I want to be loved" is the definition of sexy!
She Will love Elvis until the day she dies!! He loved her too 😍
This is like an audition for the film bye bye birdie
She was in the show “Madmen” recently.
One of the most beautiful and talented actresses.
I love this song....never heard her sing it...I've only heard Patsy Clines version...a gift from my grandmother one Sunday...she was like listen to this girl 🤣🤣 xx
Ann has a long and storied career. Ask any Nam vet about Ann. She adopted them all.
She was on John Wayne movies. She was in the movie Tommy with one hell of a scene with baked beans.
She took her stage name from Ann Margrock on The Flintstones. Her real name was Tamara Gort.
This was her screen test for the movie, Bye Bye Birdie, a huge hit she starred in that was wonderful musical based on the US Army drafting Elvis Presley at the height of his popularity in the late 50s.

She was also in The Who's Tommy movie.
Ann Margret was created to be hot 🔥 even into her senior years
Ann Margret has been called the "female" Elvis. They loved each other very much, but he had already promised Priscilla's parents that he would marry her.
She was top sex symbol 1960 s and 70s. I went to see Any Given Sunday for her but Jamie Foxx shined in that film and was not surprised when his career hit big a few years later.
Her and Elvis did a great "Jailhouse Rock".
She did a number on the Tonight Show when Johnny Carson hosted that was so hot that when she finished, he said he was glad his grandmother was dead because seeing that would have killed her.
I'll take ten dozen of whatever she's sellin"
Some say she was the female Elvis. They were a couple for awhile.
This lady is the embodiment of Foxy. In my youth she activated my hormones. They never stopped since.
I was so hot for her when I was a kid and still she still looks good. And then Suzanne Somers came along Forget about Farrah faucet
All woman right there.
Brother Jamal, Ann Margret played Tommy's Mother in "The Who - Tommy" movies. You probably know "Pinball Wizard" right? That's from the "Rock Opera" "Tommy" .

They're was an episode of 'Mad Men' that centered around this clip.
I love seeing entertainers screen tests before they were famous. You should check out The Monkees screen tests
The Goddess: Ann Margret. All others pale in comparison. And unlike most of the others, she got better with age.
Saw Phish do a version of this. Pages dad came out to sing .
I remember from bye bye Birdie
She was in Grumpy old men.
just thoughts … she was born in Sweden and 20 yo at the time. the character she played 2 yr later in her big break, "Bye, Bye, Birdie" [think "Elvis Presley fanfic"] had just turned 15, gets busy w the 'Elvis' character who is arrested for statutory rape. a big hit. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "sex-kitten" is her 'thing'.
Oh man! You gotta check her out in the film version of TOMMY. Quite a departure from this performance but dayam! ✌
Jazzy baby
When I started dating my now wife, when we were younger. My friend’s father would always get drunk and try to hit on my girlfriend. In a joking matter, but he always says she’s splitting image of Ann-Margret. I’m now seeing this,I completely understand! She did look like her. And my wife is still as beautiful as ever. And my friend’s father is now dead😂
Good Lord have mercy- she can't be denied.
Check her out in the movie Kitten with A Whip. It was also riffed in the orignal run of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
The black-and-white just doesn’t do her justice, she had red hair and green eyes, and was the hottest girl around in the 60s!
She isn't a true redhead
Her hips don’t lie either 😮
Jamel, just think about the Elvis Movie, "Viva Las Vegas" Ann's best known role.
You got to check out her "Shot Gun" video. F.I.R.E.!
Beside her movies I remember her appearing on Bob Hope's USO Show in Vietnam , she was a big hit with the troops.
A case could be made that she was the hottest woman in the world in the '60s and '70s. She even made writhing around in beans in "Tommy" look sexy.
It looks like Ann may have been influenced by Brenda Lee, who had done this song years earlier at about half the age. Brenda had the charisma, too!
The only women who "worried" Prisilla.....just saying......
She was Elvis sweat heart!
She was really something
Always thought Ann-Margaret was the most sexy woman in entertainment. Watch her scenes with Elvis! She was amazing with Vietnam vets and going to entertain the troops.
She was a profiteer delux she played a lot of Vegas shows and broadway
You need to see her with Elvis.
Check her out in Tommy.
Ann Margaret was in a few movies with Elvis & they did have great chemistry as far as dancing & acting together. There were rumors but I won’t go there!
They loved each other!
SHE AND ELVIS HAD AN AFFAIR!! BUT I TELL YA NO MATTER HOW MUCH LESSONS YOUHAVE IF YOU AINT GOT IT NEVER WILL!!
Tommy!
You need to check her out in the movie Tommy
Check her out, co-starring with Elvis in "Viva Las Vegas"
@Jamelakajamelonnicegramm Hi Jamal. This is a nice surprise. What's the next step for claiming the prize?

Grumpy old men and Elvis yeah they had rumors. But wasn't she great , thats one talented classy woman.
like that movie full metal jacket,..... i guesss ann margrett isnt coming
Check out Bye Bye Birdie.
jamal, as far as i'm concerned, Ann made the wrong choice to do movies instead of a recording career-- With the right band/songwriting, she could have competed against any of the 70's rocker chicks because her dancing was just as dynamic as her singing- And that-Smmoooooking hot figure!!
They were in a movie together... You know Elvis did her(Or vice versa)
She looks better with lighter her hair.
Ann Margaret almost got Elvis away from Priscilla back in the day
Hotter in Viva Las Vegas with Elvis. Woman was HOT.
This would NOT have appeared on TV in 1961- NO WAY. Not dressed like that. Not dancing like that. No way Jose.

This was tame compared to many artists back in the day. Even going back to the early 1900s. In some ways, the earlier, the more risque.
