GRACELAND IS ENJOYING SURGE OF INTEREST, THANKS TO ELVIS MOVIE

The new Elvis movie is stimulating interest in Graceland and visitors are filling up the place again. We had no idea it was SO expensive to get in! Like gas, prices are high, but demand is still there! Photos of the decor are always appalling – did Elvis hire a “decorator” or did his mother do it? His dark kitchen even had CARPETING – along with the latest fancy oven of that time. Why did he resist the popular decor of the era – mid-century modern? Anyway, apparently there are photos of Elvis and his gun collection at the house (he liked little pocket size pistols) – and he also had a target area where he practiced shooting at the outline of a man. Hate to say it, but “guns n’drugs” applies to Elvis as much as Chris Brown.

THE PRESLEY WOMEN JUST LOVE AUSTIN BUTLER

It had to happen. All the women in the Presley family were completely taken by Austin Butler’s swoonworthy performance in the movie Elvis. Priscilla Presley declared that Austin was “outstanding” at the Cannes film Festival. Elvis’s granddaughter Riley Keough was at Cannes with her own film, and said she was “overwhelmed” by Austin as Elvis. Her mother Lisa Marie Presley declared that she was “moved to tears” by Austin and the film is “exquisite. “ So it’s no surprise that they invited Austin to visit Graceland and even allowed him to play Elvis’s own guitar. Riley, still overwhelmed, posted this photo online…
(Omigosh- that DECOR!)
