MINI BIO:
Dark, insolent-looking American rock n' roll idol who took the world, especially the teenage public, by storm in the mid-fifties and remained the world's top-selling record star for well over a decade. Nicknamed "Elvis the Pelvis" because of his hip-swivelling gyrations on stage - but films only rarely caught the electric arrogance that set audiences alight. The end came from drugs and a heart attack. (Source: available at Amazon Quinlan's Film Stars).HONORS and AWARDS:
.
He was honored with one star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the category of Recording. Presley was never nominated for an Academy Award.
