Priscilla Presley

KAIA GERBER AND THE TWO ELVISES

Sofia Coppola must be supremely annoyed that Baz Lurhmann released his film Elvis before she could get her Priscilla movie together. Sofia wrote her film based on Priscilla Presley’s book Elvis and Me and she is also directing. Lookalike Austin Butler was an enormous hit playing Elvis and it’s hard to imagine anyone doing it better. Priscilla and her whole family swooned over Butler. Sofia was left searching for an Elvis that could match up to Butler in any way. You might recall that Austin Butler is Kaia Gerber’s current boyfriend. Kaia’s LAST boyfriend was Jacob Elordi and HE has just been cast as Elvis in Sofia’s film. Certainly Kaia is reeling at the odd coincidence…

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!)

FOUR HOLLYWOOD WOMEN ARE FIGHTING TO SAVE KOREAN DOGS

Four Hollywood actresses showed up at LA’s Consulate General of the Republic of Korea building to convince South Koreans to ban using dogs for food. (And we love them for that!) Kim Basinger, Priscilla Presley, Donna D’Errico, and EG Daily had plenty of depressing ammunition (posters etc) to illustrate their point. The pictures are difficult to look at – the cruelty of raising dogs for food is appalling. Apparently, NO actors showed up to draw attention to the dogs’ plight.

PRISCILLA PRESLEY HAS DEFINITELY GOT HER TWIN GRANDDAUGHTERS

Priscilla Presley was embarrassed by that story circulating that her two granddaughters were in foster care while their parents are embroiled in divorce. The girls’ mother Lisa Marie, is supposedly in rehab and their father Michael Lockwood has been accused of having “inappropriate” photos of children on his computer. While they fight it out, Priscilla took custody. She brought the twins Finley and Harper to a hair salon in Beverly Hills – as if she WANTED to be seen. So far, Scientology doesn’t seem to be involved in this messy situation – Tony Ortega says Priscilla left Scientology on the down-low when her daughter Lisa Marie quit. After all, the whole family has to leave at once.

IT IS UNUSUAL: TOM JONES AND PRISCILLA PRESLEY HAVE A LONG DINNER DATE

Here’s an amusing surprise – Priscilla Presley and Tom Jones turned up for a dinner date at Craig’s restaurant last night! And they were there for FIVE hours! Keep in mind Craig’s food is not that great – in fact, it’s expensive but generally disappointing. But the place is pleasant and diners are guaranteed lots of attention from the ever-present paparazzi and fans outside. Priscilla and Tom have been acquainted since he and Elvis became friends in Las Vegas in the 70’s. (Although there WAS some rivalry in those days!) Both Priscilla and Tom are single – or is this a business move of some sort? Time will tell… They left together in Tom’s Rolls Royce.

PRISCILLA PRESLEY’S SON NAVARONE GARIBALDI IS A BUDDING ROCK STAR

We don’t see Priscilla Presley’s son Navarone Garabaldi, 26, very often and it’s nice to know he’s doing OK. Navarone ‘s father is screenwriter Marco Garibaldi, who had a long relationship with Priscilla. Around five years ago, The National Enquirer printed what they considered a shocking story about Navarone – revealing that he lived “in squalor” surrounded by marijuana plants. Actually he was probably living like a typical aspiring rock star because now his band “Them Guns” is making progress. He was photographed with the band in London when they performed at Kings Head Club this week.

MORE PRESLEYS THAN WE’VE EVER SEEN ON ONE PLACE

The Presleys have ARRIVED in London! Several generations of Priscilla Presley’s family decided to take a European vacation together. Priscilla, 66, brought her mother Anna, 85, along with Lisa Marie, 43, and her kids Ben, 19, and model Riley, 21. Mysterious aspiring musician Ben is the one we rarely see, and he definitely has some Presley characteristics.

PRISCILLA PRESLEY’S MYSTERIOUS SON NAVARONE

Priscilla Presley was honored as Woman of the Year by the Nevada Ballet Theater for some reason, and many of her family members showed up for the event. We were particularly interested to see her son Navarone Garibaldi, 24, who is Lisa Marie’s half brother. The last we heard, Navarone had left the church of Scientology to become a hippie and pot dealer in California. (What else can one do with a Scientology “education?”) He seems to be at peace with his family, but we’d love to know what he’s up to now.
