Elvis & UFOs

August 16, 2010Henry Baum 1 Comment »

Given the subject of the last post, don’t know why it’s claimed that Elvis is the only rockstar who talked about his belief in UFOs, but this is excellent on many levels.  The American Messiah’s birth was watched over by Ufonaut wisemen:

The author claimed that it all began the night the King was born — Jan. 8, 1935 — when a strange, unidentified blue light reportedly hovered in the night skies above Elvis’ childhood home in Tupelo, Miss.

“The light was seen by the doctor who delivered him and by Elvis’ father, who later told Elvis all about it,” alleged Luckman….

Upon researching for his book, Luckman said he discovered that Elvis was supposedly “contacted telepathically by two alien beings when he was 8 years old” who gave him a glimpse into his famous future.

Luckman’s story is that the extraterrestrials allegedly showed Elvis a hazy image of a man in a white jumpsuit singing to a crowd, but the young boy “had no idea what it all meant at the time.”

It could be bullshit, but it’s no weirder than the Elvis phenomenon itself.

For the record, I’m a Beatles person.
