MINI BIO:
Dark, insolent-looking American rock n' roll idol who took the world, especially the teenage public, by storm in the mid-fifties and remained the world's top-selling record star for well over a decade. Nicknamed "Elvis the Pelvis" because of his hip-swivelling gyrations on stage - but films only rarely caught the electric arrogance that set audiences alight. The end came from drugs and a heart attack. (Source: available at Amazon Quinlan's Film Stars).HONORS and AWARDS:
.
He was honored with one star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the category of Recording. Presley was never nominated for an Academy Award.

Elvis Presley Quotes:
Lucky Jackson: [Sees two girls going out still partying] Looks like they're having fun.
Lucky Jackson: Oh now I get it, you want me to use my 'bravado' to block for you so you can... come right through.
Count Elmo Mancini: That's right, I knew you were clever Mr Jackson.
Lucky Jackson: Well just a couple or 3 things wrong with your proposition. I don't work for anybody, I never come second to anybody and 1 small thing - I intend to win.
Mr. Fisher: Look, son! You know you didn't fail because your marks were bad, Mr. Evans said you failed because of your attitude. He said anybody that disagreed with you got a punch in the mouth. Is that what I brought you up to do, to fight?
Danny Fisher: No, pa, that's not what you brought me up to do, but I stopped listening to you! I ran out of other cheeks! You know, I remember once, Pop, when I was no more than 3 feet high you took me to the circus. You accidentally bumped into some guy and he turned around and punched you. He punched you right in the mouth, and you know what you did? Nothing! Nothing! When they swing at you, pop, it's not enough to duck, you gotta swing back! Maybe you can't anymore, but I'm not taking after you. You go to school, I'm going out and make a buck.
