BREAKING ELVIS: UNTOLD SECRETS OF THE KING
Breaking Elvis: Untold Secrets of the King
by Lance H. Robbins
He was the most desired man alive…
the most controlled star in the world…
and the most haunted, celebrated, idolized legend in music history.
For decades, bodyguards, girlfriends, insiders, and hangers-on spun their own versions of Elvis Presley. Some protected the myth. Some exploited it. Others stayed silent.
Breaking Elvis does something no traditional biography dared to do.
It cracks the image wide open.
This is not a tribute book.
It’s not a sanitized legacy project.
And it’s not written with permission from anyone who benefited from keeping the truth buried.
It is a fast, hilarious, wild, fascinating, informative, and shocking take on the King in a no-holds barred look at his life covering topics that get to the heart of what every Elvis fan has either whispered about, argued about, or always wanted to know! Each chapter separating the Myth, the Story - and ends with Secrets Revealed.
Inside you’ll discover:
• His obsession with Priscilla, gate girl sleepovers, co-star confessions, bedroom secrets, and finally the truth about “Lil’ Elvis” (does size matter when you’re the King?) — revealing the intimate side of the Man behind the Myth.
• Vegas meltdowns no one wanted filmed, the wildest gifts ever given, drug-fueled on-stage rants, Memphis Mafia pranks and betrayals, and the real reason behind Colonel Parker’s iron grip over the hot-tempered, wild-spending, charismatic rock star of the century.
• Reckless addictions, legendary performances, the final hours, best and worst movies ranked, and the most bizarre soundtrack songs Elvis was ever forced to sing.
• Revealing bonus chapters covering the ’68 Comeback chaos, untouchable feats, impulsive charm, Elvis oddities, the painful decline, and the myths, rumors, and cover-ups that continue to haunt the King’s enduring legacy.
This is Elvis unfiltered — brilliant, funny, reckless, insecure, generous, paranoid, tender, self-destructive, and impossible to look away from.
