STORYLINE:
LISA MARIE PRESLEY HONORS SON AS PRESLEY FAMILY GETS HANDPRINTS IN CEMENT
Lisa Marie Presley honored her late son Benjamin as the Presley family placed their handprints Tuesday (21 JUNE) at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
After placing her handprints in cement and signing her own name, Presley drew a heart and wrote "Benjamin Storm Presley" in remembrance of her son, who died at age 27 in 2020.
She was joined by her mother Priscilla Presley and daughters Riley Keough and Harper and Finley Lockwood, along with the director and star of the new "Elvis" biopic, Baz Luhrmann and Austin Butler.
"Certainly had Elvis lived, he would have been given this honor and proudly become a part of this great Hollywood tradition and Hollywood history," Priscilla Presley said outside the famed theatre.
Luhrmann's "Elvis" opens in U.S. theatres on Friday (24 JUNE).

Where's Elvis' name?
The movie was great and Austin was wonderful!!. He is a very talented young man and you can see he really took his career .and acting very serious. His personality is a lot like Elvis. Elvis would be proud, but, I think Linda Thompson deserved some credit. She saved him a Few times and she took very good care of him!! Give credit where credit is due. Now the last beautiful young lady seemed to have been good to Elvis too, Ann Margaret loved Elvis as well aside from all of that the movie was great. Some parts went very fast. I will love Elvis forever! Elvis was a beautiful and sensitive ,compassionate, young man. Elvis had a wonderful heart he was one of a kind. There will never be another Elvis. Thanks to Priscilla for keeping Elvis alive for all his fans. Never forget you Elvis!!!!!

I think they wanted to focus on his time with just the family members and not the women who came after....I know for a fact that Ann Margaret would NOT have wanted to be in the movie. It's no secret how close he and Linda were, but then they would have had to include the "ending " of his life in the movie if they continued with Linda...
This was just a fantastic moment ! So great to see Harper and Finley there ! Lovely that Lisa added Benjamin's name ! So good to see her ! ! !

The fact that Priscilla has never just stepped aside so Lisa could take the full reins of her fathers legacy is very telling. This woman went on to live a whole other life and had a whole other family yet NEVER gave up the Presley name and for 50 years, has lived her life as a virtual widow after her 4 year marriage ended in divorce. Her actions speak volumes about her.

She was with another man for 20yrs and has a SON & never gave up the Presley name. She was really only with Elvis 68 & 69. Mid 69- 73 Elvis was dating Joyce Bova & July 73-Dec 76 Linda Thompson ... Then 62-67 Ann Margaret was his love. 58-62 Anita Wood. Priscilla maybe got Elvis solo for one year. 😳🥴 They wrote Ben's name, but no one wrote Elvis'?

Priscilla is to be praised for her business savvy but I think and appreciate when she acknowledges his affairs and can now laugh about it. Linda Thompson was with Elvis for a long time..day in and day out...life did not end for him with the divorce..but the financial impact affected his life and his not wanting to marry again 😔 ..Priscilla took him back to court in CA and got an additional 2 million ...the rest is history and speculation

@@serenitysmith352 thank you for taking the time to respond and respect what you think you know. However most of these facts are not very accurate. While it’s true she did assume the responsibility after Vernon died of Lisa’s inheritance (after all this is her daughter) she also made an income doing it while she used the Presley name. Something she was not supposed to do according to their divorce agreement. As the person responsible for Lisa’s inheritance at that time, she had some control but the person most responsible for saving Graceland was Elvis by making sure he put expert lawyers and the bank of Memphis as trustees in place to make sure Lisa’s inheritance would be safe and would be invested in the wisest way. Those trustees came up with this idea to save the assets and Priscilla went along with the idea. Nothing happened without their approval. But it is your right to believe what you want. I respect that, just as long as u understand other views and why it all makes no sense that her hands would be memorialized in cement.
So glad that they had the opportunity to do this as a family. Did Riley not get the memo to sign as a ‘Presley’. Lol. Bless them.
