To be honest, this dancing does nothing for me. It's kind of like Jazz music, I can't deny the talent behind it. It just isn't my thing. At all. Ann was a real beauty though. And Kristin parodied her amazingly!
Ann Margret wore tights instead of pants and pulled it off brilliantly! This outfit here is nothing short of iconic. And the way she works that hair!! My hero!
Very few people could pull focus away from Elvis on the screen. There is not one second during this performance where I took my eyes off Ann-Margret, she just explodes with energy and talent. To say she burns up the screen is a gross understatement, this is a perfect pairing of performers.
It's not that she's trying so hard, she just can't contain herself when the music starts. Ann has said when the music starts she becomes possessed. Many girls are like that. They just don't have her talents.
I remember seeing this as a kid and being completely mesmerized by this woman. Had no idea who Ann Margret was. Been in love with her since! ❤ She's a legend!
Ann Margret has her own unique dancing style and I love that. If dancing mixed with that red hair is her signiture trademark. Like if you just love Ann margret. Elvis was also undoubtably amazing as well.
Viva Las Vegas is a totally underrated film. There is one scene when Elvis is racing and car behind him crashes bad. Elvis just gives this "oh well" look. Its so cool.
🍭 Regarding previous comments about Ann-Margret's dancing. This was filmed in 1963. Everyone was dancing the frug, the swim, & the watusi. If you don't like the dance moves, blame David Winters, the choreographer. Plus George Sidney, the director, would have put his stamp of approval on everything. As far as facial expressions go, entertainers are supposed to be animated while on stage. Check out other Ann-Margret dances thru the years. She is impeccable in everything she does. I've seen her in person several times. She is the most energetic person I've ever seen. 🍭💖🍭🌷
Match made in heaven, really! Always be a "what if?" In another life, no doubt, both would be together. Even in the 70s, when both had drug and alcohol addictions, both would more than likely understand each other reasons better than everyone around them and try to help each other overcome their addictions. We will never know. I say out of all known women in Elvis' life bar, his mother, Glady. Ann Margaret was his closest equal in terms of personality.
wow. amazing to see the very fluid and confident dance moves of elvis next to ann who is totally spastic. she's wonderful to watch and has terrific energy, but her moves are 100% enthusiasm as opposed to natural graceful talent. i love watching them share a stage. you can see that he comes to this as a musician/lover of music, and she comes to it as a vibrant actress. it's like seeing a poem in two different languages.
Ann Margret as your dance partner in high school. Homework is going to take a backseat. Having Ann Margret as a prom date in high school, definately worth a yearbook picture with a goofy smile on my face but it was worth it.
Sincopare they fell in love in this movie,they kept their friendship until Elvis died. She wanted to marry him but he kept his word to Pricillas father he'd marry Pricilla. He loved Pricilla but his love and passion was for Ann. Elvis always preferred regular country girls from his home town for marriage material,never starlets but Ann was special and stole his heart. He fooled around with more starlets than he could count but he preferred his wholesome pretty hometown girls. I wish he and Ann were married instead of Pricila...She was also stunning but she used him to get into show business. She cheated with her karate instructor and dropped Elvis like hot potato. She kept the Elvis name bc it opened doors for her in show business. Ann Margaret married after Elvis,still is married to the same man,became a devout christian,remains low key. When Elvis died,she flew to his funeral. They said she cried uncontrollably at the funeral. She was devastated. Many books have been written about Elvis,from his friends,ex wife,ex girlfriends,Ann Margaret refused to write a book or even talk about Elvis in interviews. whenever asked,she begins to cry.
@@A358M I don't know where you get your info, but most of what you write is wrong. Just flat wrong. Go do some reading. To know about Elvis or Ann-Margret, or whoever, you have to research them and get the facts right. It takes time to get it all right. Listening to rumor is a fast and untrue way of getting it.
keetonplace I suppose you are an Elvis scholar? Smh He loved Ann Margaret? Yes. Did he not have a love relationship with her ? Yes. Did Priscilla cheat on him with a karate instructor? Yes. Did he screw around with every Hollywood starlet? Yes. Was he mostly,if not only,romantically involved with "good" girl's? Yes. He certainly got around with stunning beautuful women, but,good girls were the one's he brought home to live with him. Did Ann Margaret fly in to be at his funeral? Yes. Was she deeply hurt over his death? Yes. Did she ever reveal her personal relationship with Elvis publically? No. Unlike the other's,has she written books on Elvis for profit? No. Was he hurt over his divorce? Yes. Until Pricilla left him is when he painfully realized her loss. I believe it was more because his stability of having a wife and family was what hurt him,and left him feeling lonely. In spite of many different relationships he had after his divorce,he was not a happy man. How could he have been happy with all the opioids he was popping? He died as as a bloated overweight unhealthy pill popping addict....slumped off the toilet,on the floor of his bathroom.The truth and nothing but the truth.
Someone recently told me I reminded them of Ann-Margaret. I didn't know who she was off the top of my head so I looked her up & wound up here. I know I'm not as gorgeous as she is but still, it's a great compliment!
MrWhoevr Elvis & Ann Margret were madly in love with each other during filming of this movie and after. She might have been Mrs. Presley, but Elvis instead chose Priscilla, feeling that a marriage with both spouses in the movie business wouldn't work out !!
On this day in 1964 {April 20th} the Elvis Presley movie "Viva Las Vegas" had its world premier in New York City... Exactly one month later on May 20th it opened in theaters nationwide and across Canada... Two songs featured in the film charted on The Top 100; the theme song peaked at #29 and a covered version of Ray Charles' "What's I Say" reached #21... R.I.P. to The King {1935 - 1977} and Ann-Margret {Elvis' co-star} will celebrated her 72nd birthday in eight days on April 28th...
I think this is the first time in my life that I've seen an Elvis movie where I'm paying attention to someone besides Elvis. It's unfair that they did this to us because I don't want to take my eyes off of Ann or Elvis😂
Don Seib there's a video where she is wearing a green top and tights,no panties,camera focuses on her butt as she's shaking omgoshhhh how sexy she looks! very raunchy for back then. tights were her trademark. all the babes today can not come close to Ann Margaret!
She was still even hot as the old broad in Grumpy Old Men! Hell, now I miss mathau and lemon. Jeezaloo, Burgess Meredith as jack lemon's dada??! Fantastic 🤗
badweetabix Beyoncé dances in heels! 😜 But Anne Margaret was a HOT Lil number back in the day and Colonel Parker didn't like the fact she was upstaging him either! lol His manager didn't let him express himself the way he really wanted to!. The movies was really taking away from his true talent! He really wanted to do the music he loved, which was gospel and blues!
I know people don’t really like the Movie period of Elvis’ career in the early 60s, but at the very least his voice was still in great shape. He could still sing good Rock N Roll vocals until about 1969, when he _really_ began to deteriorate.
OMG Kristin Wiig totally NAILED this on SNL.
Yas! I have to watch it again, KW is amazing!
To be honest, this dancing does nothing for me. It's kind of like Jazz music, I can't deny the talent behind it. It just isn't my thing. At all. Ann was a real beauty though. And Kristin parodied her amazingly!
Here it is Wiig as Ann Margret - OMFG awesome!: th-cam.com/video/Tm8r8FAQFXs/w-d-xo.html
Beyonce nails it eveyday

i can imagine wearing tights back then, was very daring!? am i wrong?
@Copenhagen8007 - you could wear those tights BUT they'd better under you dress. It was very daring 😏
Yes her hair!!
Да , колготки смело и водолазка -свитер обязательно !

She was his equal and then some
what did you expect?...she is almost epileptic.
Maybe thats bc she looks like shes having a seizure instead of dancing😂
@@jennag3226 Yes. It's no "Wet Ass Pussy," but maybe with a little practice, Ann will make the Big Time!
@@jennag3226bitchy much?
Ann Margret was the best of all his co-stars. She could hold her own on a stage with him.
It’s 2023 and this scene still holds up. Even though Elvis is the King of Rock ‘n Roll I couldn’t stop staring at Ann Margaret.
WOW ❤
It goes beyond just being hot, she's downright adorable and so natural. Thats what makes her so cool, she's not trying at all.
She has true soul.
Why so I think the opposite? Shes trying way too hard 😂

It's not that she's trying so hard, she just can't contain herself when the music starts. Ann has said when the music starts she becomes possessed. Many girls are like that. They just don't have her talents.
@@jeffreywillstewart I agree!!
Kristen wiig brought me here. 😂
6hahaha same
John Ponce Just watched that. Now I can’t get it out of my head😂
🤣 same
+John Ponce- WRONG. This video brought Kristen Wiig here. Class dismissed.
Me too.
I remember seeing this as a kid and being completely mesmerized by this woman. Had no idea who Ann Margret was. Been in love with her since! ❤ She's a legend!
SHE was the Madonna of her time as a dancer
@@parkinlox9049 Oh please. Madonna's not a patch on Ann-Margret.
I love this woman so much 😍 so spunky and full of life, not to mention drop dead gorgeous!!
No wonder Elvis had the hots for her,, causing his wife Priscilla to be very jealous
Ann Margret has her own unique dancing style and I love that. If dancing mixed with that red hair is her signiture trademark. Like if you just love Ann margret. Elvis was also undoubtably amazing as well.
Ann-Margret is also an exceptional singer!
Not only was she one of the best dancers I ever saw, but I always thought how harder it would be in high heels...she nails it, burn the floor baby!!
Miss Ann-Margret is magic. Absolutely magic. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jennifer❤
she was a really good dancer and singer and actress, she always knows how to perform good.
Ann Margret with Elvis - their chemistry is to be seen to be believed!
He should have married her......
Us black folk dance better then both these white people, we have that natural soul that white people have to fake inorder to sound better then us!💯
@@blackmomba7122 Elvis learned a lot from us, that's what made him so good.
This dance routine sums up the 60s perfectly.
Beautiful and perfect choreography. Gyönyörű és tökéletes koreográfia.
Major kudos to the designer who made this costume. It’s sexy without being vulgar, and it’s timeless.
Costume! It’s a pair of black tights, a sweater, and a pointy bra! Lol
@@sandee3073Wow…aren’t you just a ray of sunshine.
@@pam0626 You’re the one who’s coming off looking like a jerk. What I said was the truth.
Amen!
The original yoga pants 😂
The chemistry between Ann-Margaret and Elvis was just white hot. Burning Love for sure!
Viva Las Vegas is a totally underrated film. There is one scene when Elvis is racing and car behind him crashes bad. Elvis just gives this "oh well" look. Its so cool.
she was gorgeous.. and still is!!
Elvis had many leading ladies but none equalled his stage presence as Ann-Margret. The camera just loves these two. Purely SEXY!!

Two just INCREDIBLE entertainers! So much fun!
Favorite Elvis movie of all time. Fact this was one of the few times where the band and Elvis preformed live to film.
Happy 75th Birthday Ann-Margret
77 ahora :)
Awesome! Kristen Wiig's impression of this amazing woman brought me here.. She did a spot on impression with her moves! Hahahaha.
Elvis and Ann Margaret, pure chemistry 😆.
Very view performers could hold their own onscreen with The King. Ann was definitely one of them.
Ann Margret and Elvis were amazing together......wow
I love ann margret... Shes amazing at every age
As a boy I used to watch Ann Margret’s dance here over and over. Looking back I can see why... 😏
I love Ann. Her attitude ❤️🔥
Wow. Ann Margaret was a MAJOR babe!
She was so damned good in this film with Elvis. Hot, as good as it gets. The electricity still hasn't dissipated after all of these years!
Ann-Margret Olsson, a talented Swedish girl who immigrated (legally) to the U.S. with her parents in '46.
She really was incredible. Elvis was a very lucky man.
Ann Margaret was great...she had style and a body that just didn't quit.
The queens dancing backup are slaying!
Elvis was the epitome of charisma! Ann Margret could hold her own against the King!

Happy B'day to Ann Margret.....thanks for entertaining us in Nam, during Bob Hope's Christmas show, in '68.....we will never forget you.....
Love this. I watch this "Song & Dance Routine" regularly. ❤
A timeless beauty!!!!
With the performers we've got now it'll be a long time. I can't think of any two people who'd come close to these two.
Pure magic between those two. Star destined and doesn't get any better than that.
The energy needed for this!!!
Ann Margret in tights .... doesn't get any better than that
Fantastic video - two amazing talents with obvious chemistry!
love the way she moves!!!
What chemistry these 2 had...too bad they didn't end up together!
I adore Ann Margret! Back then people called Ann the female Elvis!
Ann margret is absolutely beautiful
Ann Margaret was the Madonna of her era as a dancer. She is just phenomenally talented
She is a great dancer
This woman could move!
Ann Margret as your dance partner in high school. Homework is going to take a backseat. Having Ann Margret as a prom date in high school, definately worth a yearbook picture with a goofy smile on my face but it was worth it.
That must be the greatest band in history. The big man didn't have to even say a word and they knew what song he wanted :) Love this video!
When I was in high school Ann-Margaret was my fantasy woman. Hot and talented.
Damn Ann Margret looks good:)
There aren't a lot of absolutes in life, but one of them is that ALL men love Ann Margret!
Oh my. That was perfectly done!

Love Ann Margret! Ann isn't it terrible getting old? You don't realize it till its to late. I know I'm 72.
On Friday the 13th, March 2020, Elvis had been dead exactly as long as he'd lived. Still one of the biggest stars to this day.

And Margaret boogied like a black woman. Natural-born ability.
Ann: Hair toss, check my nails..."Baby how ya doin"? 👍😀💥
Man, I wished he would have married Ann Margret!
Ann Margret could shake it .... almost at a violent level . And only Elvis would know ....

I dig.
Any list of the hottest women ever if show business that doesn't include Ann-Margret is way off base. She was scorching hot.
Don Seib For sure.

The KING and The Queen!!!!
What a great couple
She was not only hot, but talented.!
The King and Queen - awesome 👏
I remember that well. I always loved her and her beauty never fades Even many years later, when she was in grumpy old men.
She can do all those moves IN HIGH HEELS!!! Ann Margret is a Goddess.
never could figure out how girls dance in heels

TRUE TRUE but nobody, nobody UPSTAGED ELVIS.
its not difficult if you can dance and have perfect slim legs.
hunniization bgff
How amazing is Ann-Margret?
Who could not like this!!
It's 2012, how many more years will pass before we see this chemistry and hotness ...
There are no actresses in the present who even come close to her Class and her understated sexiness.
He really makes me happy whenever i'm a bit sad :) It's magic...
🕊🍀
This is the best impression of Ann Margaret throws away a wad of paper!! Spot on!!!
i absolutely love this movie
It's astounding the changes Elvis went through in a mere 13 years from this point on.
All it took was pills and jelly-filled donuts
While she didnt age...at all
I know people don’t really like the Movie period of Elvis’ career in the early 60s, but at the very least his voice was still in great shape. He could still sing good Rock N Roll vocals until about 1969, when he _really_ began to deteriorate.
@@KHayes666Dancers work out.
Mate, you should see the difference 13 years has made to me!
Damn I didn't know Elvis was this good. I always knew he was but when started singing here, I was just like _Woah, can't believe I missed this_
You need to watch more Elvis videos. He was the best there is.
Ann Margaret as hot and talented she was she always looked like she was over doing it when she danced 💃
Did people dance like this in America and such? In the 60s at clubs and bars etc? It looks amazing :)
Wow,such sexy moves they made together! And I know Ann Margret and Elvis had a very Fab time together,on and off screen! Love them both.
The dance what did Ann Marget just amezingg
You wonder how these internet rumors start. Ann Margret is still alive.
2018...and I am watching this in repeat...enough said.
Ann is an honorary sistah! That girl had pure soul! Wow!
TrangPak2 I agree!.. You should see her and Tina Turner's performance!. Out of this world!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@hunniization Love that video. Watch it often. Quality is awful, but you still enjoy it.
Oooo the Red Goddess has ALL the moves!
Elvis who?!
Hollywood couldn't make this movie today if it tried .. because of the lack of real mega watt star power these two possessed. Sensational.
They both have energy like a million watts.
this is the only woman ever that could almost upstage elvis...should have married her...
I saw this in the theater when I was 10...amazing
