I’ve been chased through airports with a screaming baby because the photographers are ruthless, and they want the picture. – Lisa Marie Presley
Anytime I was in Memphis with my dad and at the house, I was happy. That was, like, a given. It was what I lived for. And I still feel the same excitement and warmth. – Lisa Marie Presley
I remember him watching me through the crack of a door singing with a hairbrush. I was in front of his mirror. I think he wanted me to sing. He would get me on the table and make me sing sometimes or play the piano. He was very encouraging on that front. – Lisa Marie Presley
I went through a huge transition in my life where everything and everyone I knew and trusted didn’t turn out to be that way. – Lisa Marie Presley
I don’t do yoga. I bite the hella outta my nails. I smoke, I eat all the wrong food, I don’t exercise. – Lisa Marie Presley
I think people think I’m harder and more arrogant and cocky than I am – because I know how to put on a front, but it’s nothing like who I am inside. – Lisa Marie Presley
I never not wanted to be a singer. Since I was 3, I knew this was what I wanted to do. Well, I can’t say I wanted to do it, but I fantasized and thought about it all the time. I never thought it would actually happen. – Lisa Marie Presley
On my US tour maybe three out of 30 shows there was an Elvis impersonator in the crowd but that’s it. I usually get younger fans, and those that come that are of an older generation end up walking out because it’s too loud. – Lisa Marie Presley
People that were in my life for a long time turned sinister and tried to control me, and all kinds of weird stuff happened. But there was no conscience involved; that threw me more than anything. – Lisa Marie Presley
I knew that because of who I am, and the situation I’m in, that I’d attract more critics than your average person, and that was a little intimidating, but I wanted to get out there and pay my dues. – Lisa Marie Presley
I take a situation, analyse it, break it down, put it in the form I want it to be in, and then I toss it away. Let somebody else go deal with it. – Lisa Marie Presley
I’m not doing this to be a pop star. I’ve had plenty of money and attention. I’m doing it for credibility. – Lisa Marie Presley
I like Jailhouse Rock and Love Me Tender. The black-and-white films. With music, I tend more toward the ’70s stuff because I was at the shows for those, so they bring back memories. – Lisa Marie Presley
I would describe my aesthetic as definitely personal and harmonious with an eclectic yet bohemian sensibility. – Lisa Marie Presley
I don’t deal well with admiration if it’s for something I haven’t done. Other than exist. – Lisa Marie Presley
I do like to write nasty songs. It’s a useful weapon to have, and it’s cathartic as well, because I create art out of anger, something positive out of something negative. – Lisa Marie Presley
Being Elvis Presley’s daughter is a whole lot of pressure. It’s been a constant burden in my life. – Lisa Marie Presley
I really went back through a lot of the dark corridors of my life in this. I wanted people to know who I am based on my music, not on what they read in the tabloids. – Lisa Marie Presley
I have a lot of memories, but I don’t go into capitalizing on that. Something’s got to be my own. I’m not doing the record to sit here and broadcast my memories of my father. – Lisa Marie Presley
I’m trying to have my own thing, and I don’t know if it’s even possible. I didn’t realize so many people actually think I’m trying to be like my dad. I read comments like ‘She’s no Elvis.’ I’m not trying to be. I never set out to be. – Lisa Marie Presley
I’m just not interested in selling out to get on the charts and make people happy. – Lisa Marie Presley
I’m a hypochondriac. Yesterday it was brain damage from the vodka the night before. Today, heart attack – my arm and chest started hurting at the same time. – Lisa Marie Presley
I’ve been through so much in my life. I’ve seen so much. I know how fast things can change. I know someone can be here one minute and gone the next. – Lisa Marie Presley
With a lot of hair and make-up then I’m possibly, remotely attractive. But it’s rare, I don’t think I’m ugly but I’m nothing particularly special. I’m not a yoga and health girl. I don’t exercise that much and I eat crap and smoke and bite my nails. – Lisa Marie Presley
I think I’ve failed every test I’ve ever taken. If there was a failure I would have been it. – Lisa Marie Presley
I dropped out of school in the 11th grade because there was no purpose in it for me. I’m not proud of this, and I’m not trying to promote it. – Lisa Marie Presley
