FLASHBACK FRIDAY: The Future King!
Elvis Presley started out county — and looked like a downright hayseed back in 1938! That's when li'l Elvis was posing in overalls for Vernon and Gladys Presley in Tupelo, Mississippi. He had been born in the two-room shotgun shack that Vernon built once Gladys got pregnant. He was born on January 8, 1935, and would be turning 81 years old today. Nobody could've guessed that this kid would revolutionize pop culture before dying at the age of 42 on August 16, 1977.
