Do you think Elvis has a Tatoo?

Does anyone know for sure? Any guesses?

And if you had to guess...what would it be?

WIWC2...talks about a tatoo....

Uh. . .absolutely not.

I think he was describing a tatoo of a different sort in WIWC2.

A little butterfly on the small of his back.

A pretty pink rose between. . .

Migdd....

Why so sure no tatoo?

I do like the idea of a rose....

Just a hunch, Monkey Girl, and I could be totally off base!

I guess only Mrs. Costello knows for sure what body enhancements lurk beneath those buttoned-upcollars.

Well, this may help: when directly asked in an interview if he had any tattoos, he said, "Certainly not -- Filthy habit!"

Well he should have one! I have a small multi -coloured butterfly on the base of my neck/shoulder!

I think a big seaside-resort tattoo of a smiling 'Sharon' on his back is the next thing he's going to get done, right after the anklet, and the nipple piercing.

Is body piercing still considered "cool"?

If not, surely Elvis will eargerly participate in becoming a human strainer!

Yeah I recall that quite clearly cause it was shortly after I got a rather large one!

Sources close to the man report that he has 'Ina' tattoed in a somewhat private place. Sources even closer insist that actually the tattoo says 'I love Diana'.

Ha!

You funny, House of Westing.

I heard he has a beautiful tatoo on his upper right arm.

It says Monkey Girl...

Well.. I think everyone at least contemplates a tatoo. I've been considering that cute litttle monkey,... on my ass.. you know .....like the saying ...

Well, I think that sounds a little sarcastic, if you ask me!

And Pidge...I would have said ass...but I didn't think that sounded very proper. (I don't want to get blocked like you did last week) And besides...isn't the expression "monkey on my back"?

Anyway, yours would look cute wherever.

Monkey, you're right. But i'm just having fun. the tatoo is coming.... and Elvis talks about tatoos in his latest SXSW interview, I thought that was interesting. Elvis seemed quite grounded. (not that he shouldn't be) . The monkey is quite cute! Didn't mean to offended anyone.

"I know you...you gave me this tatoo back in 82, you were a spoiled child then........it was so much easier when I was cruel."

"don't let anybody tell you how to live your life."

That's one way to get his attention!

For those of you who have not seen it yet, here's the link to the SXSW interview:

In the darkest place indeed...

Has body piercing EVER been considered cool?

Personally, I'm not sure I'm even comfortable with the thought of Elvis having actual naked human skin, let alone it being in any way inscribed.

I heard he has 'Love' and 'Hate' tattooed on his heart.

I think he is the kind of "bloke" who would have the letter "W" tattooed on each butt cheek... WoW

bobster · Post by **bobster** » Mon Apr 18, 2005 7:33 pm

This reminds me of an old joke about BB King. Can't remember all the details, but the punchline was: "Who's 'Bob'?"

Yeah. . .don't we all.
