Lisa Marie enjoyed Austin Butler's performance in Elvis
Just days before her death, Lisa Marie Presley told ET on the Golden Globes red carpet that Austin Butler‘s portrayal of her father was “mind-blowing.”
“I really didn’t know what to do with myself after I saw it,” she told the outlet.
“I had to take, like, five days to process it because it was so incredible and so spot on and just so authentic that, yeah, I can’t even describe what it meant.”
Musician survived by twin daughters
Lisa Marie shares teenage twins Finley Aaron Love Lockwood and Harper Vivienne Ann Lockwood with her ex-husband Michael Lockwood.
The U.S. Sun understands that Michael has 50 percent custody of their 14-year-old daughters and will be by their side helping them to process the tragedy, which comes just three years after their brother’s death.
Lisa Marie was only nine when her father passed away
At the age of nine, Lisa Marie became the heir to her father’s estate when he died suddenly in 1977 at age 42.
In a previous interview, Lisa Marie said that her father kissed her and put her to bed the night before his death, then she woke up and realized something was wrong.
“I knew something was wrong because I was in my room which was right next to his bathroom,” she said.
“So I knew that something was very wrong. All the commotion and everything. I was a wreck.”
Lisa Marie added that she was “a mess” but was confused at the time because of how upset she was.
Presley was known for being very caring to animals
PETA Senior Vice President Lisa Lange remembered Lisa Marie Presley as “a friend to animals” in a statement made to USA TODAY.
“Learning that an Elvis impersonator had named a chimpanzee after her and was exploiting him for profit, she successfully teamed up with PETA to get her namesake released to a sanctuary,” Lange said.
“And she didn’t stop there: Early in the pandemic, when shelters were in desperate need of foster families, Lisa Marie and her twin daughters set a wonderful example by opening their home and hearts to two dogs.”
Lange concluded: “Though the ‘Lights Out’ singer has passed away, her bright vision for animals will continue to inspire all of us at PETA.”
