In late December, WWJW, Fox?s affiliate in Cleveland, reported that Elvis Presley was still alive. Citing evidence, they say that among the clues were a photo taken with Muhammad Ali almost 10 years after the King?s passing, a photo of the King peeking out of his door taken in the late 70?s, the movie 3000 Miles to Graceland, which was consulted on by Elvis’ widow Priscilla and which included in the credits a man named ?Jesse Garon,? and a photo was shown of him playing with his dog just last year. The significance behind the name Jesse Garon comes from the fact that Elvis was born with a twin brother named Jesse Garon Presley, born 35 minutes before Elvis, but died at birth. WWJW suggested it really was Elvis in the movie, using the pseudonym of his late brother.

The evidence was brought forth by the man claiming to be Elvis’ doctor. He suggested Elvis was dying, and before he went, wanted the world to know that he was alive, that he faked his death, and wanted to give his fans closure. Elvis is believed to have faked his death because of threats on his life. In 1970, a very famous meeting took place between Elvis and former U.S. President Richard Nixon. In that meeting, Presley told the President he wanted to be a ‘Federal Agent-at-Large’ in the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs. Elvis was insistent on this title with numerous complaints about hippies, narcotics, Black Panthers and other issues which affected America at the beginning of the 70?s. All this came to him while on an American Airlines flight.

By the end of 1970, Nixon granted Elvis? request, and Elvis became a man on a mission. Unfortunately, his mission stepped on numerous toes, and by 1977, the Mafia was believed to be after him because he was set to testify against them in a federal case. Since that time, numerous suspicions have come out, including a 1999 examination that found a piece of liver taken from the corpse in Elvis? grave does not match the DNA taken from a 1975 surgery. Other discrepancies include Elvis? name being spelled wrong on his tombstone, him being obviously overweight, yet his death certificate reading 170 lbs., and most notably, that no one had claimed on his life insurance policy.

BMG today announced that Elvis Presley was scheduled to make a news conference. Among the items on his agenda were apologies for the last 25 years, an explanation on how he did it, a surprise for former son-in-law Michael Jackson, but most notably, The King of Rock and Roll, who served in the U.S. Army from 1958 until 1960, will be speaking against Canada?s lack of involvement in the war in Iraq. BMG was selected for the site after they re-released his song A Little Less Conversation, remixed by JXL. The press conference will be done via satellite with reporters seated in a nearby warehouse, while Elvis, still wary of the media attention he’ll attract, will be broadcast live from the aptly named Elvis Room of BMG Canada’s headquarters, a room decorated with numerous Elvis memorabilia and artifacts.

Elvis himself is no stranger to controversy, beginning with his earliest TV appearances where his gyrating pelvic movements were deemed sexually explicit and was therefore not allowed to be filmed below the waist. However, in the wake of the American anthem booing in Montreal, and numerous political debates ending with Canada?s refraining from the war, Elvis appears to have decided to find a cause worth speaking out against, and ending his 25 year silence/fake death.
