“ELVIS THE DAD: A Side of The King You’ve Never Seen Before” – 400 từ
Fans of the King, get ready—because this isn’t your usual tale of rock ‘n’ roll, rhinestones, and roaring crowds. This time, we’re stepping inside the private halls of Graceland, into the quieter, more personal moments of Elvis Presley’s life. Forget the spotlight—this is Elvis the father, and the stories might just surprise you.
One day, young Lisa Marie Presley decided to unleash her creativity on something… unconventional. Armed with crayons, she went wild on a luxurious velvet couch—right in the heart of Graceland. Elvis, usually cool and collected, was anything but amused. In a moment of parental instinct, he reached for an old-school punishment: a firm spanking. But the story doesn’t end there.
According to Priscilla Presley’s memoir Elvis and Me, Elvis was rattled after the incident. He wasn’t just worried about the couch—he was worried about Lisa Marie. Did she still love him? Did he go too far? The King of Rock and Roll suddenly found himself unsure—not on stage, but in his role as a father. Priscilla, however, stood by him. She admitted that if Elvis hadn’t done it, she would’ve stepped in.
But this wasn’t the only time Elvis had to play the disciplinarian. There was another frightening episode involving Lisa Marie ignoring safety rules near the pool. Elvis once again stepped up, and again, Lisa Marie faced the consequences.
The real twist? Lisa Marie, in a revealing HuffPost interview, looked back on these childhood moments with respect. Far from harboring resentment, she described them with pride—grateful for a father who cared enough to discipline, to worry, to protect.
From crayon-covered furniture to a dangerous motorcycle stunt gone wrong, these tales offer something fans rarely see: a King who ruled not just on stage, but in his home, through love, discipline, and a deep devotion to his only daughter.
