Lisa Marie Presley, singer and daughter of Elvis, dies at 54 #IndiaNEWS #Entertainment
Los Angeles: Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis Presley and a singer-songwriter dedicated to her fathers legacy, died Thursday after being hospitalised for a medical emergency. She was 54.
Her death in a Los Angeles hospital was confirmed by her mother, Priscilla, a few hours after her daughter was rushed to the hospital by paramedics after a medial episode at her home.
It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us, Priscilla Presley said in a statement. She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known. Presley shared her fathers brooding charisma — the hooded eyes, the insolent smile, the low, sultry voice — and followed him professionally, releasing her own rock albums in the 2000s, and appearing on stage with Pat Benatar and Richard Hawley among others.
She even formed direct musical ties with her father, joining her voice to such Elvis recordings as In the Ghetto and Dont Cry Daddy, a mournful ballad which had reminded him of the early death of his mother (and Lisa Maries grandmother), Gladys Presley.
Its been all my life, she told The Associated Press in 2012, speaking of her fathers influence. Its not something that I now listen to and its different. Although I might listen closer. I remain consistent on the fact that Ive always been an admirer. Hes always influenced me. Her birth, nine months exactly after her parents wedding, was international news and her background was rarely far from her mind.
With the release last year of Baz Luhrmanns major musical feature Elvis, Lisa Marie and Priscilla Presley had been attending red carpets and award shows alongside stars from the film.
She was at the Golden Globes on Tuesday, on hand to celebrate Austin Butlers award for playing her father.
Just days before, she was in Memphis at Graceland — the mansion where Elvis lived, and died — on January 8 to celebrate her fathers birth anniversary.
Presley lived with her mother, an actor known for Dallas and the Naked Gun movies, in California after her parents split up in 1973. She recalled early memories of her dad during her visits to Graceland, riding golf carts through the neighbourhood and seeing his daily entrances down the stairs.
He was always fully, fully geared up. Youd never see him in his pajamas coming down the steps, ever, she told The Associated Press in 2012. Youd never see him in anything but ready to be seen attire. Elvis Presley died in August 1977, when he was just 42, and she 9 years old. Lisa Marie was staying at Graceland at the time and would recall him kissing her goodnight hours before he would collapse and never recover.
