Facts about
Esther Williams was pregnant during the filming of this movie.
In this film, Esther Williams plays a swimsuit designer. She later copied several designs from this film for a line of swimwear that she would create.
In a 1999 interview, Esther Williams recalled that she and Ricardo Montalban were originally supposed to sing Frank Loesser's song, "I'd Love to Get You (On a Slow Boat to China)" in this film.

When Williams asked Loesser for a new song, he offered the now-classic, "Baby, It's Cold Outside." The MGM censors offered no objection to it, even though Williams thought the lyrics were even more suggestive than "Slow Boat To China".
