... I totally hear you and get what you're saying audi. I actually respect Elvis for his service to this country obviously, and have no problem with his politics, whatever they may have been, I don;t even know. just think it makes an interesting juxtaposition of those two greats during that same period of time. Lennon fighting against the power, Nixon latching on to the other great American Rock n Roll star, Elvis. or at least in that photo.
Elvis was a conservative -- but he was an American first. He admired Kennedy. He admired MLK. He believed in charity for under-privilieged children. Once he'd become famous, he actually overpaid his taxes every year, but that might be due to The Colonel's illegal immigrant status, though.

I can only imagine!! BTW, you were correct--Humes High School. When I went to Memphis in '95 I just had to drive by it! New question: What was the name of El's chimpanzee?

Scatter. And he was a skirt-chasing boozer! Seriously.

That was quick! And I had read that about him!

He made for lots of fun for the guys during Elvis' Hollywood years. Do you know the name of the Elvis movie where his dog (a great dane for Lisa Marie) appeared as "Albert"?

Kissin' Cousins? (I'm totally guessing)

Nancy R:
Kissin' Cousins? (I'm totally guessing)
Live A Little, Love A Little (196 . A pretty risque film for Elvis at that time.

Who was the actress in an early Elvis movie who died (was it on her honeymoon?) Which movie?

I think his cos-star in King Creole died. But I think his love interest in Loving You died, too. I'm stumped.

That would be Judy Tyler, his co-star in Jailhouse rock (1957). The car accident took place shortly after filming was finished. Her husband also died on the accident. Elvis never wanted to see the movie again.

So, that makes two Elvis films that he'd vowed to never watch again (excluding the stinkers he made in the late '60s, obviously). What was the other movie and why?

The other one was also from 1957 and his first color film. "Loving You" has a guest apperance by mom Gladys and dad Vernon as extras. After Gladys passed away, Elvis never wanted to see the film again.

In that same letter, Elvis also touts that he considered himself to be a role model in both the "establishment" and "anti-establishment." So, he somewhat contradicted himself.
It can happen. Lots of politicians are that, role models in both the establishment and the anti-establishment. They're supposed to be in charge of keep it going but in the end they're the ones who make it a failure.

You're on it, once again! You're an Elvis wonk! Enough intermediate questions for you. Here's a master-level question for you: What was Elvis' blood-type?* *=Actually, I have no idea.

Actually, as many women as Elvis banged, you'd think he owned rabbits.
