The Best Elvis Presley Stories On The Graham Norton Show!

My Big Sister had an Elvis story. She was working as a receptionist at, I think Arista Records, & one day the phone rang & the man on the other end said, "Can I speak to your boss, this is Elvis Presley"? My Sis replied, "Yeah, right, & I'm Ava Gardner" & she hung up. (My Sis' name was actually Ava & she was named after Ava Gardner.) About 15 min later, she had her head down, working on some stuff for her boss & someone placed a dozen roses on her desk. She looked up & a man, standing in front of her said, "I really am Elvis Presley. The next time I call, please believe me" & with that, he walked into her boss' office. She thought for sure she was going to be fired but Presley didn't get her in trouble.

met elvis back when i was 15, i was helping my uncle out at his diner while his waitress was on her honeymoon, elvis comes in and buys a bunch of food for him and his guys nearly cleared out our kitchen, then leaves a 300 dollar tip and on the way out he tosses me this gold chain and says "here you go kid, keep it, your a good kid for helping family" i still have that gold chain to this day, i also have a photo of him and me that he signed, he apparently really liked how i was helping out my family

My twin sister and I met Elvis at a gas station in Toledo, Ohio, 1956, his first year of being famous. We were age 4. We knew who he was. My dad got out of the car to talk to the guy in the next lane. The next thing we know is Elvis stuck his head in our car and introduced himself, shook our hands and told us he was a twin too. We were flabbergasted to say the least! 🤗😍

My Dad was from Memphis and one day, in his teens, he was walking home and Elvis’ limo pulled up, Elvis rolled down his window and asked my Dad if he wanted a ride. Dad said sure and hopped in. Elvis talked to Dad all the way home. My Uncle served in the Military with Elvis.

No other artist has that aura about him. Even big celebrities were in awe of him

I believe that Elvis was an Earth Angel...

My grandfather physically bumped into Elvis in Tennessee once while he was on leave from the Army in the early 60s. They both gave each other a dirty look and kept walking, but he told me as soon as he turned the corner he freaked out cause he had just met Elvis lol

Elvis really was Royalty...other huge celebrities who met Elvis were in awe of this man....but the one thing that is constant is that he was always polite and kind regardless of if u were a celebrity or not

Mrs H ... I love Kirk Russell & Tom Jones, My Mama loved both ..But Mama Worshipped Elvis Presley.... Sadly Mama died in 1983 ..12/12/1983...But to this day I love Tom Jones & Elvis Presley... My Grandchildren to this day love both...❤❤

I love Kurt Russell’s story cause I just like how he didn’t realize at the time how Big Elvis was and I love how he says Elvis was a “really nice man”

I was so blessed to have met Elvis in 1956 at the Olympia Theater in Miami, Florida. My cousin was president of his fan club and she had called the theater and spoke to Col. Parker, asking him if we would be able to meet Elvis and he said we could. When we arrived at the theater, we saw Col. Parker in the lobby. She introduced herself and asked if we could see Elvis. He said no, that he was too busy. I turned around and saw Red West and asked him, "Aren't you Red West?" I told him what happened with Col. Parker and he said, "Come with me." We walked up the steps to Elvis' dressing room and he went in first to tell Elvis we were there. When he came back out, he told us to go right in and we were not only able to meet Elvis, but he signed about 50 autographs for our fan club. That was unbelievable!!!! Another thing that is unbelievable is that my sister, who was with us, had her camera and was so awestruck, she forgot to take his picture LOL.

It would have blown Elvis' mind if he had known that the annoying little kid would someday give a legendary performance as himself in 1979's Elvis movie. Russel knocked it out of the park; by far the best Elvis movie to date.

Without fail any actor, singer, celebrity or average Joe or Joan who ever met Elvis always mentions how incredibly nice he was to them.

Elvis was a special gift from God to humanity.Unfortunately you know what happens to special gifts from God to humanity!

Considering the fact that Elvis is one of the most famous people to ever live and was (and still is) adored by millions, it's amazing that he always seemed so genuinely kind and humble. Says a lot about his upbringing.

Just watched the new Elvis movie with my 84 year old mother who remembered when much of it happened and she just began crying.

Just proves what Elvis is...ROYALTY. No one has achieved THAT level of fame or celebrity. Long live the KING!

Everyone always says what a nice man Elvis was.

My aunt is a HUGE Elvis fan. Been to Graceland, everything. She even has a room called the “Elvis room”. So of course, she wanted to see him in concert in Las Vegas. Well, she had fallen off a horse not long before & broke her leg & pelvis, so the concert hurt her, so she left early. As she was walking out, Elvis pointed to her & looked at her, since she stuck out as the only one standing up hobbling on crutches. Was a great moment for her.

I lived in Memphis for number of year's. In the summer of 1982 is when Graceland opened up for touring. My my mother in law and my husband's grandma went to Graceland. It was beautiful. We paid $25 to get in . Now it's over $100. When I was in a room where his pool table was they call it the pool room . I felt a presence in that room. It was a strange feeling. It's changed a lot since then.
