Lisa Marie Has Not Left The Building

Lisa Marie Has Not Left The Building
by PAPERMAG.COM

"I was on a 72-hour bender," she recalls. "Cocaine, sedatives, pot and drinking -- all at the same time. I never got my hands on heroin, but its not like I wouldn't have taken it. I just couldn't be sober. I don't know how I lived through it. I woke up one day with a bunch of people on the floor, and the coke dealer was in the room, and I said, 'Everybody get the **** out! That's it. I'm done.' I drove myself to the Church of Scientology and said: 'Somebody ****ing help me right now.' They jumped in, not in a rehab way. It wasn't that. It was like, 'Help me, I'm ****ed, and I want to stop. I want to know what I'm doing here. I want to know why I'm here. What's wrong with me? I want answers to all these questions

Presley credits Scientology not only for getting her off drugs, but for showing her how to be a better person. "I've figured out who I am. I have an understanding of sanity and insanity." She bristles when it is suggested that Scientology's reputation is less than sterling. "It's fast growing, and people don't know what to do with it. There's all this other bullshit that gets confused with it. It's not all 'Hail to the leader.' There's no strict regimen. [Founder L. Ron Hubbard] researched every religion, and he credits all of them. He broke down a path, incorporating a lot of different things. I can only say that if it didn't work, I wouldn't be in it."

"Forlorn," "dark" and "deep" are words Presley employs to describe her childhood. Priscilla and Elvis separated when she was four, and she moved to Los Angeles with her mother. But she often visited her father at Graceland in Memphis. "I wasn't a kid-kid. I was more sensitive than others," she elaborates. "I thought about death very early on. I was obsessed with mortality. I was exposed to a lot at a very young age. I was in an unusual situation, surrounded by men who were cheating on their wives and doing drugs. I saw a lot, and that jaded me. And I dealt with death very early ?my father, my grandfather, my grandmother.

If a car would show up at school or the phone would ring, I just knew: Someone else is dying. I had a very close friend when I was 13 who just ****ing shot himself." Presley takes a long, slow breath, then goes on: "It kind of stopped. I've had a dry spell now for ten years." When Elvis died of a heart attack brought on by drug use on August 16th, 1977, Lisa Marie was 9. She was always terrified of losing her parents as a child, and his death had a strong impact. "When you love someone so much, you worry that they are going to die or go away. I feel the same way about my kids. God, it hurts!"

I really have no postive feelings for Lisa what so ever. Being Elvis' child is the only positive thing about her, and that's not enough to like her. It's enough however to make her very special.

And I still don't understand her negative attitude. And why does she acts like a raging teenager, while she's an almost 40 year old mother? She looks instable with a very forced image.

I couldn't agree more.
And she is not the only person who's been through huge tragedies at an early age. I know people who have been through far more than she has, and the only difference was that they didn't come from fame and fortune, so aside from their personal tragedies at even earlier ages than Lisa, they had to deal with those under much less privileged circumstances, too. Still, they turned out very well and are stable and well adjusted adults. :hmm:

That?s only the case with the articles, FTD, import and jumpsuits forums. This way it let these informationforums stand out a bit between the artwork and discussionforums.

But herhaps I might change it a bit so that avatars are still show (I miss them also a bit :D )

Hello

I was the one who posted the article on LM,so let me say what I think about her.I agree that others had gone to similar or worce tragedies and come out ok.Diferent people react diferent ways.She has done alot of crazy things and her vocabulary is gross.I understand that everyone is diferent,but she can't hide the fact that she is Elvi's child.I never heard Elvis express himself the way LM does.In honor of his memory and to keep the Presley's memory clean she should be careful and behave better.I respect the fact that she is Elvi's child,but I don't even buy her Cd's.I will be honest,I don't like her and I don't like her Mommy.

By the way.......where are the avatars?I miss seing Elvi's avatar on my messages........ :supriced: :mad:

Elvis could swear like a sailor with the best of them, and we all know he had his personal demons and addictions, too, but as much as possible he tried to behave in public.
Sure, there were times when the mix of whatever he took, caused him to behave erratically - even in public, but I think one can honestly say he never purposely behaved provocatively just for the heck of being perceived as "cool" or "a rebel".
I guess that's one thing his daughter certainly does not have in common with him. Too bad. (n)

[ComeBackChick]

I don't know, maybe its because I am (almost) the same age as her, but I totally get her, and I like her very much!! (y)

I agree with you, Comeback chick. She has been through an enromous amount of turbulence in her life, and I admire her honesty, her refusal to be who people think she should be. Yes, she made some bad decisions, who doesn't? I'm sure Elvis would be very proud of the woman she has become.

[pacer1965]

Why does Lisa have to say F*** all the time for? I hate that word.I know we all swear, but in public I would never do that. Maybe she want's to have this kind of image. As she's got children you would think she would not swear in interviews.My children don't swear in front of me because they respect me, and my daughter is 20 and my twin sons are 19yrs old. I hope you all know what I mean.It's hard to explain what I mean in writing

[ComeBackChick]

Why does Lisa have to say F*** all the time for? I hate that word.

I agree with you on this! I like her but I don't like this, also the fact that she smokes, I don't like! :blush:

I just need to put a word in that Lisa's attitude comes from the past....she may live there; we don't know that exactly! You are entitled to your broad opinion, of course. Who knows, her attitude is what may make her her own person; separated from her fathers actions! :hmm:

Great Article

[Jumpsuit Junkie]

I have mixed thoughts about Lisa, on the one hand she's rude, brash and offensive. On the other it must be hard growing up under the shadow of someone like Elvis Presley.

She has had a privilaged upbringing but at what price? her mother is still battling her demons of Elvis, how this affected Lisa over the years has to have some effect.

I think Lisa is the way she is, because she does not want to be compared to her father, so if she acts a little bit crass we should cut her a little slack. In time she will not be able to fight who she is and come to terms with how she is viewed by the Elvis fans (A view they will always hold) she is the daughter of Elvis Presley first and then an individual second.

Matt

The point is that if she TRULY wished not to be compared to her dad, she would not have chosen the exact same profession, despite the fact that she can't sing if her life depends on it(n) http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/wuerg/vomit-smiley-015.gif

She could have put her lyrics in a book and called herself a poet, or just written stuff down in a book and call herself an author. Or she could have picked a gazillion of other professions, yet she chose the exact same thing her dad did.
Also she's really unbelievable when she says stuff like she did on Oprah, that she doesn't like to be the center of attention and that she did not go to red carpet occassions like every opening of an envelope: she chose to do fashion photo shoots, pose for US glossies, date famous men and ultimately go on stage herself..... not really actions of a person who doesn't want to have attention focused on herhttp://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/sprachlos/speechless-smiley-034.gif There are tons of celeb's kids who have very full lives and careers well outside the public eye, she could have done that too, easily..... I suspect the fact that she and Pris are out there so much is fueled by economic interests .... keeping Elvis (and thus the cash register) on the forefront.

Again: I'm totally with Albert when he says the only thing she's got going for her is that she's Elvis' daughter. Other than that I really have no time for her.(n)

[EnigmaticSun]

My best guess is that Elvis would be sad because of the way people may view his daughter. She is his child and he cared a lot about her.

People make mistakes, let's accept that. Lisa-Marie made mistakes too, but no matter how much you hate or reject a person for doing it, it is not going to help anyone. I think that Lisa-Marie would be able to love someone if she'd only just find the serenity and the rest she needs.

I certainly do not agree with her on some subjects, for example: the swearing not really being of an example for the children and the crazy, sometimes dangerous lifestyle she is leading. She needs focus and inner reflection: she could develop into a better singer if only she'd decide to put her mind and devotion to it. Remember Madonna had a terrible voice to start with and is now being idolized and diefied throughout the world? If Lisa Marie would start taking Roy Hamilton-like singing class, she could become a classical singer way better than Madonna is now, maybe able to sing in opera or with aria's. :)

I'm not saying that people should have a mentality of anti-pleasureness.. But I guess I make my point clear when I say that drinking an healthy glass of red wine is better than doing coke and sedatives.

Even smoking marihuana responsibly, like Willie Nelson does, is better for a human being than doing coke from the streets or taking a lot of pharmaceutical junk. The blacks from Africa knew the medicinal effects of hemp too, but too bad some racists said it to be 'dangerous ****** crop' and banished it, trying to protect cotton industry. But that is a completely different story..

The point is that I would like Lisa Marie to complain less and develop herself more! She's more loveable than she actually thinks she is. Let go of that bad karma, Lisa..!

[MainelyElvisgal]

It's hard to say when you're not in the "circle" what really makes a person tick. As a writer I've seen the "public" image, and then the person behind the image isn't always what it seems to be. Lisa Marie is Lisa Marie for good or bad. Only time will tell what legacy she will leave her children.

Last Day of Rehearsal....

Blew out the cobwebs then blew out my voice day 2. Day 3 much better and now we wrap it up (of course when my engines are on and ready to go we have to stop till the first show).

For those of you who have asked if there will be new material played, I'm afraid not for a bevy of reasons that I cannot get into but the bottom line is no, we are doing material from the 1st and 2nd album.

Regarding our special guests:

Neither of these two individuals NEED to "open" for me, they are very talented in their own right and would have No problem doing their own shows however, they are good friends of mine and we thought it would be a TON OF FUN to do shows together.

Roseanne Barr Is my New BFF! lol We met, connected, and had some fun times together over the summer and from that came the BRIGHT IDEA (induced by a little wine:) to have her do her stand up act as an opener, this will take place in Baltimore at the "Rams Head Tavern" on Oct 8th. Roseanne is just a Raw Rock Star in whatever she does, she tells it like it is and I think that's why we get along so well.

Ryan Cabrera, sweet guy and VERY talented. He's going to play an acoustic set for sure at the Chicago HOB and more shows after that are pending confirmation but I think he'll hopefully be doing most of the East Coast shows with me. I wasn't very familiar with Ryan's music until recently. In Hawaii over the summer he sang an acoustic version of his song "Hit me with your light" and BLEW ME AWAY! He is the real deal!

Finally, we have the talented Matt White joining us after Nashville for most of the final October shows. You can check out his myspace for a sneak peak of what you'll be hearing.

Things are changing fast but the above is the latest, we will post once it is finally ALL confirmed.

Everyone is very excited! Can't wait to see you all out there!!!

See you soon.
~LMP

[diamond]

Sorry but I just dont ''get her'' I know this may be controversial but I dont think she can sing....sorry but thats my opinion.......and of course Ryans going to open for her, hes going out with Riley. I think Lisa needs to grow up a bit and stop living her life through her kids.

[Wild_In_The_Country]

i think people are very harsh on Lisa, I have met her on 2 accasions and is a very charming lady. I was lucky enough to inrerview lisa for 60mins on one of them,
She has had a troubled life and people are too quick to judge others,
Elvis once said " Don't criticize what you don't understand, son. You never walked in that man's shoes." (lady in this case)

I agree with you.Very true(y)

[hounddog]

I like Lisa. i like her music, I think she is still working out a lot, maybe doing some of it in public isn't good, but hey we've all shot our mouths off then regretted it.

I like the way she talked about her dad and her mum, and her life when she did the Oprah interview. You could see the hurt in her eyes when she spoke about Elvis.

The press and media do not always print the truth and they fabricate to hook readers in all the time, just look at some of the things that have been said about Elvis over the years.

That interveiw with lisa is 4 pages long and is over three years old. May not be how she views the world now. It certianly wasn't how she spoke about her life when she was interviewed on tour here last year (australia), i think it was 2005.

[ruggishboo]

As her dad would say, "the image is one thing, the human being is another." Lisa comes off at times in public as rude and crass, a bit rebellious. But you tell in her eyes and face when she talks about her father how much she loves him, and how much pain is still there nearly thirty years after his death. I think she is like anyone else, she has the best and worst qualities of both of her parents. She's carried the weight of her father's legacy all of her life, and while that doesn't justify any mistakes she's made in public or private, she's just human like the rest of us. We all make mistakes, ours just aren't aired out on national television. I think Elvis would be proud of her. I think he would be proud of his grandchildren too.

[Unchained Melody]

I really love that song. First heard it on that Elvis tribute video on youtube...very touching!

[vulcandude]

Personally, I don't understand all this Lisa Marie bashing because of a few swear words and whatnot. If you listen to "Cut Me And I Bleed", Elvis swears more than most sailors it seems. I have been lucky enough to know Lisa Marie for some 20-odd years, and despite most of what is written or said about her, she is, other than her mother, one of the sweetest people I know. I think she is incredibly talented both as a songwriter and as a singer, but I admire her for more than that. She lost her father at a very young age under tragic circumstances, has been married to some strange poeople (Michael Jackson), has had to deal with the awesome task of coming out from under her father's shadow, and through everything, like her father remained true to herself. She might have this image of being crass and crude and whatever, but let's not forget, Elvis had an image that was unshakable when he first started out.....he wasn't understood because of his gyrations and whatever....he was called a rebel, and many radio stations of the 1950s banned playing his music. But, as we all know, it was an image. Lisa Marie is nothing like she seems to be in print. I think she's fabulous, and just like I do about her father, I'd shout from the mountain tops how wonderful she is. In fact, I can't wait for her next album.....

[Unchained Melody]

I agree David, alot of the bashing is not necessary but everyone has their own opinions on things and we have to respect that! ;)

As for as her music goes, i am not really that into it, but there are a few songs that are really good! Plus she is a very beautiful women !

I don't know, maybe its because I am (almost) the same age as her, but I totally get her, and I like her very much!! (y)

Since my dad passed away last year I can kinda understand where she's coming from. Even a year and a half later I'm still at that "Anger" part. People grieve differently, but when you loose someone that close to you it changes you. Just imagine seeing someone all your life, then all of a sudden they're gone... :'(

[Dudcowboy_1]

Lisa is sweat person from what I hear from her family and etc...when I talk to them if we do show thoughter where they are speical guest. I think what it is the media does not know how handle someone that tells it like it is? She don't hide anything, you hardly see her in newpapers and etc.

Only thing I do wish that should release maybe a CD of duets of songs with her dad like they did for Don't Cry Daddy... I think awesome duet of "Its Midnight" or "My Way" would be awesome.

Love to all,

[Suzan]

I spent some time w/her @ a private party and I have to say she was amazing, she has a great heart and def. her dad's mannerism's and sense of humor.
She is shy...but can let loose.
I like her...:D
I think she would have been a different person had he lived...I think maybe more stable, I don't think she got the love from her mother that she had w/her dad...I think that played a large rule in who she is today.
I think yes Elvis would be proud of his daughter, he always was...She could have chosen many other fields, truly lived an annonymous life if she chose so I don't buy that she doesn't like the spotlight to a degree. :) She has money to live anywhere she wants and I'm sure her "people" inner circle would follow...I dunno not in her shoes, wouldn't want to be...
Though Elvis would have def. been cool to have for a dad...though I'm sure majority of us love our father's and I wish we were all as fortunate to have such a wide body of physical memories of our parents as she does w/her dad. :)
JMHO
I love Lisa! :)

Lisa Marie is a wonderful person, a humanatarian and an outspoken person who takes no crap from anyone. She is not rude, she is lovely the way she is, so real!

Have you ever posted any stories about the time you spent with Lisa? I'm sure there are others besides me that would like to hear them.

[john carpenter]

Everyone of us has addictions (ELvis) LOL..And the fact she swears and smoke doesn't make her a bad person. Elvis has done the exact same thing, he cursed a blue streak onstage when some said he used herion..iI have no dought he did. He might have been a teatotaler (didn't drink) But remember he who is without sin cast the first stone.

[utmom2008]

Suzan,

What I find interesting is how the people that have spent time with her all say she is nothing like the way she comes across on TV and interviews. I have to say...on TV she often does come across as crass and ill-mannered. Yet....one on one she is apparently a very sweet woman. I wonder why she chooses to put across the crass personality that we often see? I don't care for the constant use of the F word...I think that makes her less attractive. That's the one trait that I don't think her dad would go for. Afterall...he was of the old-school way of thinking that women should act like ladies. That also ties into his southern upbringing.

Since she has married Michael she seems to have mellowed! She's been searching all her life for someone to love her for her and I think she found it. Kinda sounds like the searching her dad did all his life too.

[Burning_Love]

Am i right to say she scares me a bit ? :lol:
I would like to know where she has got her attitude from ? I like her, but she has a lot of attitude about her.

[Burning_Love]

My views exactly.
Sure, her music is not for everyone-it doesn't have to be. But for the most part I respect her. My only regret is that she prefers to "let the dead past bury it's dead," so to speak, rather than stand up for her father and actively maintain his legacy, which i guess, though, is fair enough and she has legitimate reasons for this.
Actually, to say that she, like Priscilla, just wants to make money off Elvis, to me sounds extremely ridiculous. She was his daughter and, no matter what, she will always hold a love for him that is more potent than any of our own, as much as im reluctant to say it.
Also, she is her own person and, whilst still acknowledging her background, i think she should also be treated this way.
In her song about her father "Nobody Noticed It", Lisa Marie sings

"I heard broken footsteps
Was that you limping
Well, I wish that I had spent just a little bit more time with you

Tears on my ceiling
Weren't you watching
Well, I guess none of us will ever know what comes after this

You're still lovely
You were lovely then
All that you had to endure
I guess nobody noticed it

I know your resemblance
It's out there walking
And I wanted you to know that I haven't forgotten

Well, they tried to make you look broken
But not while I'm living
'cause I wanted you to know that
I heard what you said while it was raining

You're still lovely
You were lovely then
All that you had to endure
I guess nobody noticed it

You made me. I love you and
Did you know nothing has changed
And now everyone they notice it
Everyone notices

You're still lovely
You were lovely then
All that you had to endure
I guess nobody noticed it

You made me. I love you and
Did you know nothing has changed
And now everyone they notice it
Everyone notices"

Personally, i think it is a great song and that verse that is in bold, to some extent, i think, shows that she does acknowledge her background, but doesnt necessarily want her own personal feelings to be completely exposed to the world.

I love this song. It's very heartfelt.

[Yada]

lovely song...Lovely singer...

No I have not but those around me know them...I don't post special and private things on public forums...I made promise to her I wouldn't and have kept my word to her, which sadly some have not.

I know what you mean. I've never told my special memories of her either - out of respect for her privacy. I've only given copies of my special pictures to 2 people and I know for certain they won't spread them around. Someday when we're 90 I'll tell you about a really cool experience I had with Lisa and Benjamin. She is such a great person!! Love her to death!

Ohh, grrr I'm jealous, you met Elvis' daughter and his grandson, too! :cursing:

Exactly...I am same way. And some of my really special one's only my immediate family knows.
There are some very very cool stories of her and her kids and some heartbreaking one's as well.
Yes words cannot describe how beautiful she truly is, I've always said that I wish everyone could meet her and see that she is not what they always see or read in the media.
Yes can't help but love her w/every fiber of my being.

I love Lisa Marie, no matter her swearing. I'm 3 years older then her and i drop the F-bomb every now and then too. It's just a habit like any other. She can sing some songs, but she doesn't have the vocal range as her Dad.:king:
