Principal photography continued on "Fun In Acapulco". While filming the performance of the song "Marguerita," Elvis complained
of feeling self-conscious in an untucked, short-sleeved shirt, he explained that he would never wear such clothing in real life.
The outfit could not be changed because a shot of his double leaving the bandstand had already been filmed.
