'Lisa Marie Presley' (born February 1, 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee) is an American singer, daughter of the singer Elvis Presley and his wife Priscilla Beaulieu.
Lisa is a close friend of her father's ex-girfriend Linda Thompson. In 2003, after advice from Thompson's record producer and then-husband David Foster, she launched a career as a singer. Her debut album was called To Whom It May Concern. The album reached #5 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and was certified Gold. To promote it she performed in a concert in the UK, something her father never did. Presley released her second album, Now What, in 2005 and it reached #9 on the Billboard 200. It was certified Gold in November 2005. Now What was her first album to have a Parental Advisory sticker. Although, an edited version of the album is available.
Marriage & Divorce
Presley married her first husband Danny Keough on October 3, 1988. They had two children together, Danielle Riley (born May 29, 1989) and Benjamin Storm (born October 21, 1992). Presley divorced Keough on May 6, 1994.
Two weeks later she married Michael Jackson on May 18, 1994. The marriage lasted 18 months. There was speculation that Jackson, who owns The Beatles catalog, wanted to buy Elvis's catalog too. There was also wide speculation Jackson married Presley for various public relations purposes. The two divorced on January 18, 1996.
On August 10 2002 she married Nicolas Cage, someone well-known for his Elvis-obsession. They were together for only three months and divorced in 2002 (Cage later remarried).
In 2005, Presley was said to be dating her guitarist, Michael Lockwood.
The story of her parents' life together and her birth and childhood until her father's passing in 1977 was recounted in her mother's 1985 book, Elvis and Me.
