I know is sounds stupid but if shes doesnt want to live in the shadow of
Elvis [as she says] she should give away all her money or give it to her
mother [ the money which is rightfully Elvis' ] or not accept anymore and go
from there. What people dont realise when they inherit millions and want
their own life is that they wouldnt even be known if it wasnt for that
money. What would be a decent thing to do would be to start from scratch but
as long as she caries around Elvis' money for doing nothing but being the
daughter she isnt gonna get the respect she wants.
I hope people understand what I mean. Of course it will never happen but
Elvis stated with nothing and made himself independently and got his
respect. She could get the same respect. She goes around saying Im sick of
my father but Im not sick of his hard earned money.
Of course Lisa Marie is a spoiled bitch. What would you expect
otherwise ?

I'm no great Lisa fan either, but isn't there a contradiction in what
you're saying? On one hand she's getting everything because of her
father, on the other hand she's being criticised for refusing to go on
stage and accept awards on his behalf. Seems to me like she actually
does her best NOT to be associated with Elvis.
If she wants to get a record deal, and somebody offers her one, how is
she ever going to be able to take it without there being the
possibility it was because of her name?
If she really wanted to trade in on her father's success, the time to
do it would have been when she made the "Don't Cry Daddy" duet.
Instead, she recorded it and left it sitting in the can after it's
once-only outing.
I think she's in a no-win situation.

Poor girl.
He died when she was 9 and since then she has been constantly hounded by
everyone about the subject of her father.
Whatever quote that was posted above was probably misconstrued or
exagerrated.
Imagine losing a parent at age 9 and for the rest of your life to be
hounded by everyone about him every time you step out in public. That
could drive a person crazy. Nothing about her relatinship with or
feeling about her father are private to her.
You never met Lisa. You don't know her.
Don't talk that way about Elvis' daughter.
Elvis would be outraged to hear this from his fans. Regardless.

If she is not in fact mentally ill, then what other motivation could
possibly have prompted her to marry a freak like Michael Jackson? Not to
mention her devotion to Scientology/Dianetics.
She's pretty shaky.
(But I love the duet from Memphis on "Elvis Meets Presley".)

Here we go again, people taking what I say and turning it around trying to
make me out as the bad guy. My point was she will be continue getting
hounded as you say if she dis associates herself with Evis and the first and
most important step is stop accepting his money. Thats my main point and my
only real point. If she doesnt like him, thats fine. I have no problem with
that. Please, please people get what I say right. I made it clear and made
sure it was clear so nobody would give mixed up but yet that isnt working.

Lisa Marie was Elvis' pride and joy. I would hate to think what he

like that.
Make no mistake about it; Lisa loved her dad but, there is only so much
a person can take. She is a human being; an individual who wants to be
noticed for who and what she is. So what on earth is wrong with that?
In the book Priscilla wrote, ELVIS and ME, there is a quote from Elvis
in the beginning of the book that goes: "Don't criticize what you don't
understand , son, you never walked in that man's shoes."
In this case, it would be Lisa's shoes.

I think we all "get it." Maybe people just don't agree with you. Get it?
You think if Lisa Marie doesn't like her dad...how you could possibly know that
is beyond me...then she should shun the fortune his name has bestowed on her.
That is never gonna happen and why should she?
Besides that, you really have no idea how Lisa Marie feels about her dad and it
really isn't any of your business.

It isn't "his money". It's money that has been earned since his death,
and a great deal of the credit for that money having been earned in
the first place has to go to Lisa and her mother. When Elvis died he
was virtually penniless in real terms. In the years following his
death the Estate was on the verge of selling Graceland, things were
going so badly.
You could say that if it wasn't for Elvis' talent and his memory that
nobody would go to Graceland, and buy the CD's and videos, or you
could say that if it wasn't for Priscilla having the vision to see
what could be done, there would be no Graceland to go to. The truth is
probably somewhere in between, but to say that she is living off her
father's money is bullshit.

>well whatever, thats not my point though.
Saying "well whatever", leads me to think you haven't read my reply. I
understand your point - you're saying that because Elvis was famous,
and because Lisa is Elvis' daughter, and because she apparently has
little interest in his legacy, then she ought to give up any rights to
his money. Is that about it?
> The money is there because of

But firstly, it isn't "his money". It's money made by the Estate, some
of which would NOT be there had it not been for her mothers
intervention.
Secondly, if she spent all her life walking around "in his shadow",
then she'd be criticised for leeching off his image. Whatever she
does, she's going to be accused of doing the wrong thing.
I've never heard her actually be critical of Elvis, have you? In your
extensive two year period of being an Elvis fan? I've never seen her
on TV or in the press, doing anything that could be seen to harm his
image, have you? In all the hundreds of books you must have read in
that long two year trawl through the Elvis archives?
So what you are saying is, every child, be they from celebrity stock
or otherwise, has to spend the rest of their lives basking in the
glory of their parents achievements, in order to somehow "qualify" for
their inheritance.
Is that what you intend to do then? Are you going to set up some sort
of "Miss Ireland" foundation, so that the world can see how wonderful
your mother was when she's dead? If not, don't expect to get any money
from her estate.
Richard
The only problem is, even if she did so something so insane as give up the
money, she still could not shake who she is. She is Elvis Presley's daughter.
The story would then be, "Elvis Presley's daughter gives up the family
fortune." She would continue to be hounded regardless.
I don't believe that she dislikes her father. She loved him very much, but she
is probably finding it hard to deal with the burden of public scrutiny that
goes along with being the daughter of Elvis Presley. Walk a mile in her shoes.

K of E,
I believe there is only one person who doesn't get it.
I can totally understand Lisa...how would YOU like it if the whole world
kept asking you about your dead father day after day, year after year?
You'd say "enough already", I"m sure. I know I would.
It's not Lisa's fault she's Elvis' daughter. And I don't blame her for
wanting her own life.
Lisa could very easily have gotten a recording contract or a movie contract
if she'd wanted to. Could've done it years ago.
Aside from that one commercial and a few interviews, she has tried to live a
relatively quiet life, it seems.
Even Lisa has a life outside of Elvis.
Oh, and I doubt you'd give millions away if you had 'em...

Well, first of all, it's not his money, it's hers now, and it has been since
she was 30. Elvis wanted that for her. Second, who says that wanting your own
life and being disassociated with your father are the same thing?
