Lisa Marie explains why she said yes to Michael Jackson back in '94

*Warning: Video might cause nauseous gagging.*


Still can't understand about the union between Lisa Marie Presley and Michael Jackson?

According to Contact Music:
" Lisa Marie Presley explained she married pop superstar Michael Jackson because he could empathise with her upbringing in the limelight. The daughter of rock legend ELVIS PRESLEY - who recently wed guitarist MICHAEL LOCKWOOD - now realises her nuptials with Jackson were a lapse in judgement. She says, 'I have never met a man who could cope with me, who I am, the Presley name. Which is why I married someone even more famous than myself. Hiding behind someone else was, I guess, easier, although not necessarily the right thing to do.' "

Sinatra wants dad to tell it HIS WAY, seeks advice from Presleys

According to a recent Reuters press release, Nancy Sinatra is promoting a new 5-million dollar Virtual musical about the legendary career of her father, Frank.

With modern-day technology and a mixture of family home movies, Sinatra's career presented on multiple giant screens at the London Palladium theater where he first appeared in 1950.

According to the article:

The Sinatra family, keen to avoid the tacky imitators that followed Elvis Presley after his death, took advice from Presley's ex-wife Priscilla on the best way to handle his futuristic retrospective.


"Elvis has been gone for so long. They have had a head start on how to do this, this keeping of the flame and the legacy," Nancy said.


"Poor Elvis. The real Elvis has been virtually abused in a way over the years. We don't want Frank to become a caricature," said Sinatra who starred alongside Presley in the 1968 racing car movie "Speedway."


"We would rather have Frank speak for himself which is what is happening with this show. People will get to know him through his music."


Nancy, 65, believes that her father's London show, which has already taken two million pounds ($3.5 million) in advance bookings, could be copied by others on stage.


Biopics like the Johnny Cash drama "Walk The Line" and the Ray Charles story "Ray" have won Oscars and have also enjoyed box office success.


"I would imagine there will be others who want to do the same thing," she said of the London production, a fully honed version of a commemorative celebration show first unveiled in 2003 at New York's Radio City Music Hall.

Lisa Marie Presley: Pregnant?

According to The National Enquirer, Lisa Marie Presley was pregnant when she and Michael Lockwood said their "I dos" in January. Apparently, Lisa had intended to get married later this spring when but when she found out she was with child she quickly wanted to get the whole wedding thing over with. Could this be true and the reason for wearing a tummy-concealing kimono?

The magazine reads:

A source close to the couple said: "Lisa Marie was determined to look great for her wedding. I think she didn't want to be pregnant in her photographs. If they'd have waited until the spring when they were due to get married, the bump would have been showing.

"As soon as she found out she was pregnant in early January, she told Michael, 'Let's get married now.'

"They told the wedding planner she had five days to organize a wedding in Japan and told their families to pack their bags."

Elvis is larger than life and when I ran into this site on the web, I felt nothing exclaimed that better then this super-sized Elvis balloon. Can you imagine having this at your next celebration? Crazy! I'd love to have one of these parked right on top the roof of my apartment, or even like on top my head...lol. I LOVE THIS! Somebody needs to have a party up in here so we can buy one of these fellers and display it for the world to see who rules the world.
OMG I want one!!!

Post-Oscars

CONGRATS TO REESE WITHERSPOON!!!!

Though I am surprised and saddened that JOAQUIN PHOENIX didn't win Best Actor (sorry D.W! ) and VERY surprised Brokeback Mountain didn't win Best Picture!

:(

What's up Mickey Rooney! Did anyone see the camera pan to MR in the audience! Great to see he is still attending the Oscars. Living legend, indeed. I enjoy seeing classic Hollywood at the Academy or out and about. Mickey Rooney, Lauren Bacall, even Tony Curtis. :)

And where were the Presleys? Lisa is prob on her honeymoon...

Oscar Predictions for Tonight

I am rooting for WALK THE LINE to win in every catagory they are nominated for.
I feel I am going to cry if Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon win. I cried last year when Jamie Foxx won for RAY. OMG. Those two are amazing. I think it will be a tight neck-to-neck race with BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN but I dont know if Hollywood or the Academy will chose the controversial film. I look at the winners of the Golden Globes because you win that, your chances of Oscar Gold are bar none.

I strongly, gut-instinct feel Reese WILL win. Joaquin? I'm 90% positive. Walk the Line for Best Picture? I'm like 80% sure.

Oh yea, I DO want Jake Gyllenhaal to win for supporting actor for BROKEBACK.

I loved him in JARHEAD and I think he (from the clips-havent seent the movie) was perfect in BROKEBACK.

GOOD LUCK!!!!! I'll be watching!
