Elvis Presley’s appearances on “The Ed Sullivan Show” were iconic moments in television history. He made a total of three appearances on the show. His first appearance was on September 9, 1956. This performance is particularly famous because it marked his first appearance on national television, and it caused quite a sensation.

During that first appearance, the show’s producers were initially concerned about Elvis’s provocative dance moves and suggested filming him only from the waist up to avoid any controversy. However, Elvis’s charismatic performance and energetic stage presence captivated the audience, making him an overnight sensation despite the restrictions on camera angles.
