The King And The Queen

Natürlich bietet sich das Thema zum Tode von Queen Elizabeth förmlich an. Nein die beiden haben sich nie getroffen obwohl es wohl die Möglichkeit gab. Ob der Grund tatsächlich wieder der Colonel ist...aber lest selbst:
On September 25, 1962, Elvis was invited to attend the 1962 Royal Variety Performance, reported  Express . The Royal Variety Performance is an annual show that raises funds for the Royal Variety Charity and attended by senior members of the British royal family.Invited to perform for the monarchy in 1962 alongside Presley were Bob Hope, Cliff Richard and the Shadows, Eartha Kitt, and Cleo Laine on the London Palladium stage.However, Presley likely never knew of the request. The invitation crossed the desk of Presley’s manager, Colonel Tom Parker, who reportedly turned it down. According to Express, Parker was infamous for not letting Elvis leave the country. However, the colonel was an illegal immigrant from the Netherlands. He had no passport and feared leaving the United States and being unable to return.

schade drum.
Sicher wenn die Einladung über Parkers Schreibtisch gelaufen ist dann ist sie direkt in den Papierkorb gewandert, denn bei der Sache war für Parker kein Cent an Elvis zu verdienen.
Die "königliche Damenwelt" wäre bestimmt entzückt von Elvis gewesen, insbesondere die damalige Queen Mum und Elisabeth Schwester, Margret.
