Elvis and Nixon cast on Good Morning America (VIDEO)


The words used by the cast include Bizarre, Insane, Ridiculous and Crazy (which seems to be the KEY Word) used by all. That's how they describe Elvis and this very important event to Elvis himself and historically.

They laugh away telling the story and mentioning that Elvis was carrying a fire arm and had one as a gift for the president. This happened in 1970. Maybe in 2016 this might be odd to a few. But this is America where we have a right to bear arms. No matter what he gave the president, it would be made to be odd and strange.

The media loves to make Elvis an odd ball, weird, strange and CRAZY. Listen as Alex says when he saw the photo of Elvis with Nixon, he didn't even think it was real. And that's the big problem with the media and all these movies that poke fun at Elvis, recreate history for entertainment and make him a fictional character like Santa Claus. Alex's generation is already thinking this way. Future generations may not ever know there really was an Elvis Presley who changed music and was an incredible human being. No other artist gets treated with such disrespect.

Not one of these guys says anything positive about Elvis or learning anything about Elvis except CRAZY, Ridiculous, insane etc. This movie and the laughter just takes away the honor of this historical event. Elvis was so proud of this and now it's made into a comedy. It breaks my heart. I know this would hurt Elvis.

So Jerry turned down Justin Timberlake for Alex in the role of himself. Surprise? No way, Alex is obviously more of a pretty boy and by the way, Elvis' granddaughter Riley's ex boyfriend. Of course, Jerry is going to pick the Magic Mike HUNK over another musician (like Elvis). He wanted to outshine Elvis for once. Total Ego trip.

And hats off to GMA for the silly game during the interview. Instead of copying WWHL concept.....talk about Elvis.There's at least 10 questions I'd ask these guys about Elvis. Leave the games to Andy Cohen's staff who have that mastered. It's overdone on daytime talk shows. And it's dull.

Actors everywhere rejoice over Elvis and Nixon, this fan not so much

Elvis Presley's Forgotten Children - The National Enquirer 2 year worldwide investigation

Image
The National Enquirer reported on January 8th that Elvis Presley "supposedly" fathered SEVEN children aside from his daughter, Lisa Marie Presley now 47. The gossip magazine claims they have conducted an exhaustive two-year worldwide investigation into Elvis’ missing family. And the astonishing findings have been verified by DNA tests, birth certificates, personal correspondence, check receipts and witness testimony! The Enquirer goes on to "supposedly" reveals the names and details of Elvis’ lost boys and girls. 1987 book  In MY PERSONAL OPINION, with over 26 years in the Elvis World, I personally DO NOT believe any of this! It's laughable.There are some names in this "bombshell" report that many long time fans will recognize from past scandals. Remember Lucy de Barbin and her daughter Desiree ? They published the book, Are You Lonesome Tonight? in 1987. Here's what the Enquirer says about this supposed "love child", ...

Image
Linda Thompson acknowledges that she was fully aware Elvis Presley was seeing other women during their time together. For years, there has been talk that Linda, herself stepped out on Elvis with his own band member. In her book, A Little Thing Called Life, Linda dances around the subject quite cleverly. She acknowledges being sick and tired of watching Elvis sleep all day and the cheating. She talks about one day she finally left Elvis sleeping and went out during the day. It was then that she developed a friendship with Elvis' keyboard player, David Briggs. Linda admits to being attracted to David. But she says they did NOT start dating until AFTER Elvis and her relationship ended. Although through the years, others have said differently including David Briggs. Including Larry Geller catching the couple having a candle light dinner at 3 AM! David Briggs gave an interview to Alanna Nash and said he never thought Elvis would let a woman come between them. Charming, hu...
