[SatninLove]

Does anybody here think that if Elvis was still with us,he would have married Ginger Alden as she claims?:hmm:
-SatninLove

[KPM]

Don't know but if he had married her I would bet it would not have lasted very long. Too many years between them IMO

[presley31]

I think elvis just said it but l don't think he would of gone though with it. Ginger wasn't all that great with elvis and elvis knew it.

[TotallyInsane]

I kinda think now he would have. May not have lasted but she did seem to perk him up some of those last months.

[shelley.m.]

No Way!!!!

[Diane]

I don't think so. I think she was on her way out just before Elvis died.

[Brian]

I don't think the age issue was really the biggest issue between them because Elvis liked dating younger women and Elvis would have likely continued that trend if he lived. I do think the problem between Elvis and Ginger was that when he wanted her to do something like go on tour or to a session with him she wouldn't do it and when he wanted to be with her she had he family with them all the time something he didn't like.
If he didn't marry linda he wouldn't have married Ginger, I just don't see Elvis marrying again unless he met someone he really fell head over heels in love with them and got he's playing around with other women out of his system.

I don't think he would have ever gotten that one out of his system!!! :lmfao::lmfao:

[Elvislives72]

No. She was on her way out as it was before he was to leave for the next tour they day he died. There was another girl waiting to be with him in Portland, Maine on August 17.

[TotallyInsane]

There were a couple more waiting to be with him in Texas too!!!

[poormansgold]

who knows .. and We never know To That question be.. We know that Elvis Was starting cleaning House with The Memphis Maria.. too bad he didn't live to finish it .. This first I hear about Ginger is way out.. it's rumor or fact?

He was already trying to hook up with Sandy Miller who at the time was 16, Please correct me if I'm wrong people. It was too much for her to handle. I don't think Elvis would have gone through with it. He already got wind of Ginger, sneaking out to discos to hook up with other guys.
My theory on why Elvis wasn't attracted to Priscilla sexually was, he knew she was doing something behind his back. He had good intuition about people but I don't think he expected, Mike Stone.

I've never heard of him trying to hook up with Sandi Miller

[rickb]

I don't blame him for4 being infatuated. If i was 42 and had a beautiful 20 y-o girlfriend i'm sure i'd feel the same. But I think the lustre would have faded quite quickly

[MojoElvis]

I've never heard of him trying to hook up with Sandi Miller

I'm sorry I got the name Minde Miller mixed up the girl I meant witch was Alicia Kerwin who was 21.

He told Billy on the morning of August 16th 1977, that maybe he should invite Alicia Kerwin out for the first part of the tour

Absolutely not.




I don't think so. I think she was on her way out just before Elvis died.

Diane


No. She was on her way out as it was before he was to leave for the next tour they day he died. There was another girl waiting to be with him in Portland, Maine on August 17.


Correct. The 'other girl' was a lady named Alicia Kerwin.



who knows .. and We never know To That question be.. We know that Elvis Was starting cleaning House with The Memphis Maria.. too bad he didn't live to finish it .. This first I hear about Ginger is way out.. it's rumor or fact?

It's a fact. Ginger was on her way out of Graceland permanently right before Elvis was to have begun the 'tour that never happened'.

[Getlo]

Ginger, sneaking out to discos to hook up with other guys.

Another baseless rumour designed to discredit the poor girl even further.

[TotallyInsane]

It's not a fact she was on her way out because we did not hear that from Elvis. It's all been hearsay.

[Teddy]

I've always felt that Ginger was just a side-effect of his general condition at that time.
His body and mind were deteriorating, which exacerbated his mid-life crisis and clouded his judgement in equal measure.
He wasn't the first guy to seek a woman half his age to make himself feel alive and he won't be the last, but these dalliances rarely evolve into long-term commitments.

[rhythmknights]

i kinda agree with Brian - if Elvis wouldn't marry Linda [actually commit and all, not just say the words and give her the jewelry] why would he marry Ginger? i don't think he was the marrying kind, at all.

[john carpenter]

Remember in EIC when Elvis introduced Ginger to the audience? He said "id like you to say hello to my girlfriend Ginger"? Why didn't he say fiancee'? If he really wanted to marry her then he would've said fiancee' Or announced it to the press!:hmm:

[goodelvisgirl]

i don't think he would have married her he just was not that type he had tried the married life and he ended up getting hurt i don't think he would have been too keen on getting hitched to anyone and if she was already on her way out then he couldnt have thought much of her if anything linda seemed a better match than ginger

[Getlo]

If he really wanted to marry her then he would've said fiancee' Or announced it to the press!:hmm:

Hmm, just like he did about Cilla in '67, right? :hmm:;)

[Tony Trout]

Another baseless rumour designed to discredit the poor girl even further.


Actually, Getlo, some of the boys had her 'followed' and did find out that she was seeing another guy behind Elvis's back.




It's not a fact she was on her way out because we did not hear that from Elvis. It's all been hearsay.

Just because we don't hear things straight from Elvis's mouth doesn't mean that it isn't true. I'd tend to think that those around him would know a bit more than we all do.

The fact is that Elvis never intended to marry Ginger at all. He was just leading her on. He told Billy Smith (and I'm paraphrasing):

"I'm just getting too old and tired to train another one!".

Ginger was on her way out of Graceland. Elvis didn't plan on taking her on the 'tour that never happened' because she always complained about going on tour - she didn't enjoy that part of Elvis's life in the least.

[presley31]

EIN: What are your thoughts on Ginger Alden? Would they have got married?

Billy: Ginger always thought so. But Elvis had a way of putting things off. He always said "when the time was right". And he'd laugh... the time just never was right. I don't think they would have married

I believe Totallyinsane meant that as a joke, as in Elvis telling HER everything.

I agree with what Billy said. Don't think he planned to marry her, and just kept putting it off like he did with eveything else in his life.

[MojoElvis]

I don't think he would have gone through with it. She was a phony and all up another guys, you know what. She was just using him for his money and that was obvious. Just like Priscilla. She didn't even want Lisa Marie when she heard she was knocked up. Or so her B.S. book says that.
She had to put on her make up before calling for help after she found his body. And found a way to call The National Enquirer to sell her story.

[Unchained Melody]

Tony Trout I agree with you.

Nancy Rooks the cook recalled a fight Elvis had wiht Ginger, the day or so before the tour, and she said that Elvis said to Ginger and I quote "If you don't go tonight, then you not going at all, because there will be someone else out there in your spot". And Dick Grob talked with Elvis that night of the 16th and asked if arrangements had been made for this other girl to join Elvis on that tour.

Many of the insiders say Ginger was to blame for much of Elvis' heartache the last year because he was so in love with her they said, and she had a really low way of returning it. And it hurt him alot when she would not go on tour etc with him.

That story is absolutely 100% false. Why do people think she put on her makeup first????:blink::blink::blink: The poor girl woke up, called her Mother and talked to her and THEN went to check on Elvis. I am by no means a Ginger "fan", but I hate to see untruths spread about a 20 year old girl!!:blink::blink::blink:

Agreed. You have to imagine what it was like for her to start dating Elvis Presley the king of all kings, who was addicted to prescription drugs, expected her to wait on him hand and foot etc. That must have been a huge change for her, and it had to be difficult for both because everything she waned to do, he had already done it.

[Unchained Melody]

Different interviews sorry i have no better source than that. I also read that Elvis thought she was cheating on him aswell....I know it really hurt him when she refused to join him in nashville for a recording session in january 77.

Wow Really?I've never heard that...Everything i've heard was that he didn't love her...I don't know....
But I don't think she put on her makeup first.......Just another stupid rumor made up by some maggot!(y)

If not love, then he was very smittened by her. November-December 1976 prime example (leave out the vegas gigs).

Yeah i've always liked that from her too. As far as i know we've had no book or nothing written about him by her..i know shes sold many things though that elvis gave her that last year in auctions and such but that is certainly no reason to dislike her.

Oh yeh gosh no...Although I don't seem to understand how all of these people can sell things that Elvis gave them..I know he was just a person and all (I thnk of him as that) but still..I wouldn't be able to sell anything that anyone gave me....:hmm:
But yeh I do like her for that privacy reason...Her and Linda haven't done much about speaking out..I mean Linda's done interviews and such,but in very good taste...(y)

[TotallyInsane]

If Ginger was only in it for the money then why has she not made her living off of selling her stories about her life with Elvis like the MM have?

[Broussey]

:PWhen he said that it must have been a LOVE DAY!!! I dont think he would have married her IMO!!

[Unchained Melody]

If Ginger was only in it for the money then why has she not made her living off of selling her stories about her life with Elvis like the MM have?

Right. So that should make it pretty clear she was not in it for the money.

[SatninLove]

Yeh she wasn't in it for money...When did the make-up rumor start?
-SatninLove

[Miss Clawdy]

If Ginger was only in it for the money then why has she not made her living off of selling her stories about her life with Elvis like the MM have?

I don't know if she was in it for the money, but if she was I think she was in for the whole cake and that was when Elvis was alive and not only for a slice in the form of books or the like after his death.

[MojoElvis]

I don't know if she was in it for the money, but if she was I think she was in for the whole cake and that was when Elvis was alive and not only for a slice in the form of books or the like after his death.

Not in it for the money? did you know that, her and her family tried to get Vernon to pay off the rest of the house Elvis helped them get a loan on after Elvis died?
And that she was the first one to call the newspapers and TV stations for interviews after he died?
In my opinion this was another Priscilla in the makings. Remember, Elvis didn't want to marry Priscilla he all ready had her, in that I mean, he didn't have to pay for the milk cause he had been getting it for free. Priscilla's family started blackmailing Elvis and The Colonel jumped at the chance to use it to his corny advantage to once again, clean up his image even more.

I don't think he was going to go through with it. Not unless he just wanted to use her to give him a son. She was already sneaking around on him, so she couldn't even control herself in that way.

[Diane]

I agree with Tina. I think Ginger was in it for the money in becoming the next Mrs. Presley and then there would have been another divorce. I think Elvis knew that was in her mind (having been through it once before) and had no intention of going through that again.

you're right

Bill Burk discounted that Ginger was the one who called the National enquirer and even named who it really was but I can't remember who he said did it.

[Donut]

I've always felt that Ginger was just a side-effect of his general condition at that time.
His body and mind were deteriorating, which exacerbated his mid-life crisis and clouded his judgement in equal measure.

Would you believe I agree with you on this?
Anyway, I think they used each other for their own personal reasons and with this I don't judge any of them. In my opinion Elvis liked the idea of being able to still seduce a woman half his age and Ginger being with such a big star, nothing else...

[Donut]

Yep "All His Ex`s Live in Texas" :lmfao::lmfao:

That is too funny(y)

The night he died the maid Nancy Rooks (sp) said he and Ginger had a fight and he told her if she didn't go on that tour than someone would be there to taker her place!

I figure E thought that if he didn't offer her something other than just being the girlfriend of Elvis Presley that she may not stay....And at the end it is clear that drugs ruled Elvis's life and well all know that it made him make some very bad decisions. So I do think he proposed to her, did he intend to marry her no.

I don't remember what book I read this in but he made a comment similar to the "it's like bring a sandwich to a banquet" (referring to Pris coming out to Hollywood) telling someone under his breath speaking about the engagement to Ginger "Whenever that will be?" I believe that conversation happened in a limo if I remember correctly

I don't think Elvis would marry anyone again though.

I remember that book and yes ginger and elvis spent alot of time fighting over tours. Its really a good read and gives you inside peek to what ginger was like with elvis.
