The whitewashing of Elvis

In the Sunday times they had an advert in the wedding section of Elvis getting married to Priscilla in promotion of the CBS show. Now what kind of whitewashing bullshit is this, Elvis fucked a fourteen-year-old girl, let’s not try to make this the wedding of the century.

I'm not saying he wasn't a pedophile, but they both maintained that they didn't have sex until their wedding, which was probably the day of her 18th birthday.

She said she begged him and he wouldn't. Elvis wasn't a saint, but he was a god fearing good ol' boy so this wouldn't surprise me if it was true.

You ought to do a little more research before you get on your high horse about such things.

well, it was a pretty big deal. the most famous man in the world getting married. but i was referring to the whitewashing. you painted him as a guy that fucked a 14-year-old, when by all accounts that was not the case.

Dude was over 30.

If he did fuck her when she was 14, that's sick.

This is what I thought was kinda whitewashing. Was it all that perfect? She did live with him...and they never did it? whatever the case how did the tv movie deal with it. I haven't seen it yet?

True but when did he marry her? Is it really whitewashing? Yes, what he did was bad beyond belief but consider that this is the same world where an interview with Mary Kay and her boyhusband streches for over a week and is totally whitewashed AND consider who made this special....Priscilla and Lisa Marie.

She was 21 when they got married...so how long did the courtship last? BTW, I never heard anything about Elvis "waiting", although it could be true...it's not like he wasn't screwing around before, after and possibly during the wedding!

My only problem with this tv show is that they act like we've never heard the story when we've heard it a million times.

On a side note, Elvis is probably the only superstar who has biopics where the actor playing him is not better looking than the original.

Bobby Darin >>>> Kevin Spacey, although you could argue that Darin is not a "superstar".

Was this biopic better than that "Elvis and Me" 80s series?

I'm not that familiar with Bobby Darin's looks, but I believe you when you say Kevin Spacey's not as good looking as him.

Pricilla said she is positive he had an affair with Ann Margaret.

Can't say he didn't have taste.

I wish someone would do a special showing all the wild sh!t Elvis did - popping pills, wolfing down fried peanut butter & banana sandwiches, shooting his TV, beating up Hamburger James, throwing pool cues at chicks breasts & rubbing the lump on the back of his mama's neck. Now that I'd watch.

If both Elvis and Priscilla were telling the truth, they didn't have sex (with each other at least) until after they were married. By then Priscilla was an adult.


Talk about hypocrisy. You're making a big deal about this, when you frequent a site devoted to a man who's also married women not born until after his career started and famously has a yen for the young ones.

After Dave Chappelle gets his head straight, he should do an Elvis bit like Rick James.

"I'm ELVIS, bitch!", then Elvis slaps Hamburger James and shoots out the TV.
