During a recent town hall, Anderson Copper asked Trump about his musical taste. Here is what Mr. Trump said, " Michael Jackson was actually a very good friend of mine. I knew Michael Jackson very well. He lived in Trump Tower for a very long period of time. He would go down to Mar-A-Lago. He actually got married to Lisa Marie Presley. The whole big deal at Mar-A-Lago, they were in the tower and I would tell you that he was up there one week with her and he never came down so I don't know what was going on but they got along. You know a lot of people say they really didn't.....they were up there for a week and they never ever came down. I said where the heck is Michael? But he was a very talented guy.

Keith Hess Well friends, looks like EPE has once again pulled in a great one! The Guesthouse at Graceland will have top shelf management and service. Now let's work on the crime in the area and also hope it does not become like first class downtown hotels where ladies of the evening frequent especially during Elvis Week. It's very offensive to women and families yet beyond obvious. Advice to Mr. Hess , beyond your expertise, listen to Jack Soden and all the staff that has been there from day 1. They know the fans!  Recognize the faithful fans who come every year, save year round to be there, not just the hipster who will be there on a road trip and never again. We are your best customers! Elvis fans are the very best! We are not to be judged by anything but our loyalty to the king of Rock n Roll. Elvis was the best and we expect the best! Judging from your resume, we have gotten the best! Good luck and see you in October! Here is more about Keith: Background Area

 Riley, Lisa Marie & the Queen of Rock n Roll Priscilla Presley "The reality is I know as much about my grandpa as you'd know about a grandpa you never met," she said. "People always ask, 'How crazy is it that your grandpa was Elvis and your stepdad was Michael Jackson?'" she tells Esquire magazine in its new March issue. "I make them happy and say, 'Yeah, it's soooo crazy!' But actually, I don't think about it, ever." The 26-year-old beauty says she's far more interested in carving out her own legacy rather than simply be known for her ties to the King of Rock & Roll, who died a dozen years before she was born.
