Elvis is 90

Elvis Presley was born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, USA. So yesterday he would have turned 90 years old. But as we know, he died on August 16, 1977, in Memphis, Tennessee, at the age of 43. His music career began in 1954, at Sun records with producer Sam Phillips guiding him. But his entire life was pushed by Colonel Tom Parker, who managed him for the rest of his career. Presley's first RCA Victor single, ‘Heartbreak Hotel’, was released in January 1956 and became a number-one hit in the US, the first of many Number One hits. In 1967 Elvis married Priscilla Beaulieu and they had one daughter, Lisa Marie. He took part in 31 movies, and as a US citizen, had to serve in the military for a few months, which he did in Germany.
