I'm usually not one to be effected by the celebrity status. I see people scream left and right when someone "big" walks by but I'm too busy thinking "WTF you screaming at this regular guy/girl for?" to even care. But there are some (very few) that cross that threshold in my mind of being a "regular guy/girl" into "HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT'S CLINT EASTWOOD". A few others I can think of are Shigeru Miyamoto, Steven Spielberg, Dido, Kate Winslet, Tom Hanks, Hayao Miyazaki, Michael Jackson, Johnny Cash, and Michael Cane.
Another one is.... Elvis. So imagine my reaction when my mom's best friend tells me that my mom dated Elvis for awhile! Yeah, I totally thought "bullshit!" on that one. But before I knew it my brothers and dad were confirming it to! Later that day my dad pulled out a video type of my mom and fricken Elvis Presley at the Aloha from Hawaii concert (among other stuff). My mind was blown! My mom started going off on story after story about dates with Elvis, talking to him on the phone, getting picked up in a limo and flying with his manager to meet him in Hawaii, receiving loads of presents from him, deep and long conversations, etc.
The craziest part? She told me two years ago! I went 18 years without ever knowing. She rarely even mentioned Elvis to me before, and when she did is was strictly about his music. And his music.... crazy junk goes through my mind when I listen to it now. Stuff I would rather not think of.
But should this not be a big deal to me NeoGAF? Should my mind not be blown? I mean, what if my mom would of married Elvis? WTF would my life be like now? And what if..... I was Elvis's baby?
P.S. My dad hates talking about this subject. :lol
