Elvis Can You Hear Me?

Okay, I think I'm the only person on the planet that does not watch American Idol. I heard all this hubbub about Celine doing a duet with Elvis last night and I thought...oh they're going to do another "Unforgettable" like when Natalie Cole sang with her father. Fancy editing. Big Whoop. So I didn't watch it. I got enough Elvis videos and documentaries in my collection to keep me occupied for years, why would I watch Celine fuck up his songs? Nope. nope. Not even the promise of Madonna's "taped message" got me to watch last night.

Then I YouTubed it this morning and saw ELVIS walking out with CELINE. For a minute I thought..."YES! The scientific community finally received my many letters, obtained Elvis' DNA and cloned him!!!" I was about to break the bad news to Brad that sadly, the mothership of all hillbillies has returned and that I must heed the call.
But alas, it was just SUPER fancy editing; however, I have to give it up to AI. That was brilliant. So brilliant, I started trolling Ebay for a time machine.

I have the 1968 Comeback Special on DVD. (Where they got that Elvis performance from)..and I have to tell you all that I could have done that duet better than Celine considering, I've sang along to the entire DVD
...and I have his moves to that song (and many others) memorized...
and if you get me drunk enough, I will put on an oversized suit and amaze you with how a Filipino chick can turn into Elvis with one shot and a glass of rum and coke. Its a little disturbing.


Seriously, no one is hot now like Elvis was hot. White suit with that hair, the perfect face, the swagger..oh jeebus.. I screeched like a groupie inside and I think my panties went down a notch.

What the heck??? Why couldn't they have paired him with someone cool, like...ME?

I didn't watch it either but I dug the video. No one is hot like Elvis these days is in my opinion because he is everything you dream of having a MAN to be. Clean cut, honest, just and bad enough to know he will make you feel like a WO~man. Yup, they should clone Elvis. As long as the new one doesn't get fat and greasy later in life;)

Where DO you come up with this stuff, I'm cracking up!

It was awesome how they did that!

webmiztris: yes, exactly. That's how I feel when I watch this show. Like I'm watching a very expensive karaoke production

kristi: Thank goodness the coolness of Elvis overshadowed the cheese that is Celine.

Miss-Informed: We have great protein shakes, turkey bacon and low fat butter now so I think if we cloned Elvis today, he would stay slim trim and hot.

Tug: I have no idea how they did that, but they need to make Elvis appear in my living room. Better yet..my shower. ;p

The show was good. I cried most of the night watching scenes of kids.

Madonna was on the show. (Nyah,nyah,nyah doo-doo)

No Elaine, I think that's just Lisa Marie Presley.

I didn't watch it either; I was very interested in watching who the newest member of the Pussycat Doll's was going to be... I know, that's lame!

I also don't watch AI... I have never watched any of them. I'd rather watch a movie on TMN if I have to watch TV. :)

Sorry, Elvis, but you're no Madonna. :P
