Priscilla Presley recalls final night with Lisa Marie before her death
Priscilla Presley is reflecting on the last evening she spent with her daughter Lisa Marie Presley, just days before her sudden death in January 2023.
The 80-year-old attended the Golden Globe Awards alongside Lisa Marie to support Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis biopic and its star, Austin Butler, who won best actor in a drama.
After the ceremony, the pair planned to grab a drink, but Lisa Marie complained of stomach pain and decided to head home.
“Little did we know how bad it was,” Priscilla told People in this week’s cover story. “It struck all of us, we were just dumbfounded.”
Two days later, Lisa Marie died at age 54 from a small bowel obstruction linked to a previous bariatric surgery.
In her forthcoming memoir, Softly, as I Leave You: Life After Elvis (out September 23), Priscilla recalls rushing to the hospital and facing the painful decision to take her daughter off life support.
“I thought about my girl, my wild, rebellious, passionate girl, lying in a vegetative state for the rest of her life,” she writes. “I said what I had to. ‘Take her off the machine, Doctor.’”
Lisa Marie was laid to rest at Graceland, where she is buried alongside her father, Elvis Presley. Priscilla admits the loss remains devastating.
“It was the second saddest day of my life, other than losing Elvis,” she said. “You never really get over losing a child.”

Prince William bold decision keeps Harry up at night: ‘No mercy’
Prince Harry has been losing sleep over Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s future risks, particularly following his estranged brother Prince William’s recent powerful move.
The Prince of Wales’ bold decision regarding Andrew caused serious tension for the Duke of Sussex about his and little Sussex’s royal future.
Royal commentator Tom Bower, in his book Betrayal: Power, Deceit And The Fight For The Future Of The Royal Family, made several claims, and one is about Harry’s growing fears for Archie and Lilibet’s titles in William’s reign.
After witnessing the royal family, especially William’s stern actions against Andrew after he portrayed the monarchy in a negative light, Harry anticipates the future King’s wrath.
Tom penned, “The tremors of the unprecedented sanctions against Andrew must have shocked Harry. In public, he remained silent. In private, he realised that his own royal status was no longer invincible.”
The royal expert warned, “Clearly, William was taking no prisoners. Once he was crowned as king, his brother might well show no mercy to him and Meghan.”
Harry knows that the Prince and Princess of Wales still have grievances regarding the Sussexes’ bombshell move to air their family’s drama to the public.
Talking about Meghan, Tom said, “William would undoubtedly rail against her disloyalty. He might even strip Archie and Lilibet of their titles.”

Megan Thee Stallion teases new song with Cardi B: ‘Definitely gonna happen’
Megan Thee Stallion is excited to collaborate with Cardi B again.
The Grammy-winning rapper has been on a career high this week, making her Broadway debut as the first female Zidler in Moulin Rouge, and a surprise new collaboration with Nickelback on the Cheetos Dill Pickle promo song, Pickle’s Back.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday, March 25, Megan teased what’s next: a long-awaited collaboration with her “girl,” Cardi B.
“Don’t worry about that, don’t worry about that,” she said with a smirk when asked about a possible collaboration with the Bodack Yellow rapper. “This is going to happen again. This is definitely going to happen again. Now, when it’s going to happen, I’m not telling you,” she teased.
The hip-hop icons first collaborated on Cardi’s 2020 hit, WAP. Three years later, they came together for Bongos. More recently, they reunited on stage at Cardi’s ongoing Little Miss Drama tour during a stop in Megan’s hometown of Houston, Texas.
“It was great, I love performing with Cardi,” Megan told ET about the performance. “She’s amazing. Every time we link up, it’s like, we don’t have to see each other for a long time, but every time I see her it’s like, I just saw you yesterday. We just pick back up where we left off from. That’s my girl,” she gushed.
“We’re both authentic, and we both are ourselves. We just both like to laugh, so we don’t really take anything too seriously,” Megan added.
Cardi also gushed over Megan following the performance, sharing a picture of the duo backstage on her Instagram Stories and writing, “I love you so so so so so sooooooo much.”

John Mellencamp wins Icon Award at 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards
John Mellencamp capped off a milestone night at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards with both an honor and a heartfelt performance.
He received the Icon Award from his daughter, Teddi Mellencamp, before strumming through acoustic renditions of his most beloved hits.
The 74-year-old rocker was visibly moved as Teddi delivered an emotional tribute, calling her father her “best friend.”
John then handed the trophy back to her, acknowledging her ongoing battle with stage 4 melanoma.
He then turned to the crowd with a mix of humor and encouragement.
“I’ve been doing this 50 years and I’ve enjoyed most of it,” he quipped.
“…for all you young people who are starting out, there’s nothing closer to heaven than writing a song or hearing your songs on the radio, or having a show.”
Mellencamp’s acoustic set, featuring “Jack & Diane” and “Pink Houses”, was a reminder of the enduring power of his catalog.
Since his 1976 debut, he has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide.
He has earned induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and co founded Farm Aid with Willie Nelson and Neil Young, a benefit concert that has supported American farmers for over four decades.
iHeartRadio praised him as “the spirit of the American storyteller.”
It noted that his work has defined eras and influenced generations with its unmistakable voice and point of view.
Mellencamp will now take his greatest hits on the road this summer with the Dancing Words Tour – Greatest Hits, launching in July and spanning 19 dates through August.
The night also featured performances from Kehlani, Lainey Wilson, Ludacris, RAYE, TLC, Salt N Pepa, and En Vogue, while Miley Cyrus received the Innovator Award and Ludacris, who hosted the show, was honored with the Landmark Award.
Taylor Swift, Alysa Liu, Nicole Scherzinger, Nikki Glaser, Sombr, Weezer, Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy, Shaboozey and Vin Diesel were among other attendees.
