I’m a lifelong elvis fan so there’s a bunch of songs that I think are about him (like All Smiles) but don’t technically have references. but I don’t know how big of a fan she was - if she’d read a bunch of the books about him then there’s other niche references too. because her look was so heavily Priscilla influenced I’m inclined to think she was a Big fan and might have read some oh and also! more direct references would be super movie which references Sand hotel casino, Chevrolets, Vegas and the cococabana which are all heavily associated with elvis . 1 Quote I have gold in my veins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
