    30 years since he’s been dead and the king is still making headlines with todays popstars! Unbelieveable! And how sexy does he look in that 6th picture huh! Justin can attempt to bring sexyback but as far as i’m concerned sexy died with Elvis!

    Great comment Gin. I think Justin is overrated. He wants to be the next big R&B star but, to me he is Pop Music. I remember hearing about Elvis passing away. My mom (being a big Elvis fan) mourned in her room for a few days. Elvis still makes money. How ironic. He will always be a music Icon. Too me Elvis was one of those cross over singers that appealed to all cultures.
