| Followed since birth as the child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, Lisa Marie is no stranger to the spotlight. Her highly publicized relationships with Michael Jackson and Nicolas Cage, as well as her battles with drugs, may have overshadowed her modeling career and business sense. But now she is hoping to turn heads thanks to her debut rock/pop album, To Whom It May Concern. |

| The King's daughter, Lisa Marie has tried her best to stand without using Elvis as a crutch. Whether she has reached this point is still debatable, but thanks to some musical talent and many headline-grabbing antics, this young Presley always keeps us entertained. |

Perhaps only JFK and Jackie had a more celebrated '60s marriage than Elvis Presley and Priscilla Beaulieu. In any case, the relationship between rock star and aspiring actress culminated after their nuptials, in a baby being born on February 1st, 1968. Lisa Marie Presley came into a very welcoming but invasive world where, as daddy's little girl, all her wishes came true.
Treated to a life of luxury at the 14-acre estate known as Graceland, in Memphis, Tennessee, life was still hard for young Lisa Marie. Her father's volatile character made an impression on her and, with all the media present, she was forced to retreat into her shell in order to find some peace and solitude.
At the age of five, Lisa Marie saw Elvis and Priscilla go through a very public divorce. Her mother subsequently won custody over her, though Elvis saw her frequently and never stopped lavishing her with gifts, which included jewels, meetings with celebrities like John Travolta, ponies, and even a golf cart in which she famously rode around the grounds of her father's estate with.
August 16th, 1977 was, of course, the day Elvis tragically died. Lisa Marie, now nine years old, was at the house when it happened and, to escape the madness that ensued, took refuge in her golf cart. After Priscilla later arrived to console her, it was revealed that Elvis had left his entire estate to little Lisa Marie, to be taken over when she turned 25. The will was later altered so that she would take control of the funds on her 30th birthday.
Lisa Marie's late adolescent years were filled with partying, drugs and alcohol. Only after constant pressure by Priscilla did the junior Presley finally relent her crazy ways: at 18, she went through Scientology's Purification program (Travolta supposedly introduced her to the religion), and has not touched drugs since. |
