Changed line(s) 1,8 (click to see context) from:
* CutSong: "Voodoo", and Lena Horne's rendition of "Love of My Life".
* DeletedScene:
** "Voodoo", a duet between Manuela and Serafin while the former is hypnotized, was cut after test screenings because Louis B. Meyer abhorred how torrid it was.
** Lena Horne had a small role as Manuela's dressmaker and sang "Love Of My Life", hence why Manuela's version is listed as a reprise on the soundtrack. She was cut for unknown reasons.
* ExecutiveMeddling:
** MGM head honcho Louis B. Mayer HATED Gene and Judy's sultry duet "Voodoo". He ordered the negative of it to be destroyed and had "Mack The Black" filmed in its place. Thankfully, the audio recording of it still survived.
** Judy Garland and Gene Kelly fought tooth and nail to keep in the scenes of The Nicholas Brothers. But they were removed when the movie was screened down South since MGM thought audiences would be offended at seeing a white man sharing the stage with two black men.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: It's been noted how much "Be A Clown" sounds like "Make 'Em Laugh" from ''Film/SingingInTheRain'', which coincidentally also stars Gene Kelly. "Be A Clown" came first, however.
