Lisa Marie Presley sues tabloid for calling her fat

March 10th, 2008 // 71 Comments

Lisa Marie Presley had to reveal her pregnancy early because a British tabloid published photos of her last week and claimed her unhealthy diet was causing severe weight gain. But, I mean, seriously an offspring of Elvis gaining weight in their later years? Would’ve thought? Anyway, Lisa Marie was of course pregnant unbeknownst to the The Daily Mail and is suing them for libel. The AP reports:

“It really upset her,” Presley’s attorney Jo Paton told The Associated Press. “She was about to announce her pregnancy and was shocked and hurt by the unkind article about her appearance.”
Paton said Presley was seeking an apology and damages.
The Daily Mail said the first indication they had of Presley’s complaint was when they were served with court documents.
“We are investigating the matter,” the newspaper said in a statement.

I don’t think Lisa Marie Presley can really sue The Daily Mail for libel because they called her fat. I call Jennifer Love Hewitt fat all the time and she’s yet to sue the pants off me. Then again maybe she knows that a.) she has no case because I’m omnipotent or b.) this is another thinly-veiled attempt to have her remove my pants. No one can really know for sure. Mostly because I didn’t list the answer which is c.) all of the above.

    Insane chick that would marry Michael Jackson just to recruit him into scientology.

    Funny how several scientology chicks are fat pigs. You would think their alien superhuman spacemen powers would allow them to control their body weight.

    OMG! Priscilla looks like the Joker!

    She’s not just fat, she’s uberfat!

    So, wait a second. She claims she is due some time in the Fall….. Even if that is as early as September she wouldn’t be more than 4 months pregnant.
    4 months pregnant does not usually mean you have already gained 50 pounds. Sorry Lisa Marie, you are fat.

    Take a look at those bags under her eyes.

    Is she fucking kidding??? Her weight has been up and down for years! Given how old she is who would’ve thought she was pregnant???

    #37…She doesn’t have a daughter named Rumer…Bruce Willis and Demi Moore do though.

    She is my favorite. I saw her blog on millionaire dating site W e a l t h yRo m a n c e.c o m. It seems she wants to met another half on that siite

    I suspect all the people bashing her for her weight gain and the bags under her eyes have never been pregnant! Not all pregnant women “glow”. Her face looks puffy from water retention and she is probably worn out from the pregnancy. She doesn’t looks fat to me. I applaud celebrities who eat when they are pregnant, it’s much healthier than these irresponsible women who are underweight to begin with and then starve themselves their entire pregnancy. In the end, she’ll have a healthy baby and she’ll lose any weight she gained. I hope she enjoys being pregnant and doesn’t pay attention to any of the mean comments I see posted here. It seems the only things most people have against her is that she was born into a wealthy family and that she eats.

    Nini – impressive command of the English language. You should join the debate club or something.

    Okay, no one can say she’s fat without being sued. How about portly? That’s not so bad is it?

    She is fat. She is not pregnant enough to be that swollen. I had pre-e with my first and gained 20 lbs of water weight in the last month. I was on bedrest and was so swollen my feet couldn’t fit into flip-flops. It happens and is very dangerous to the baby. However, since she is not that pregnant, I doubt that is the case.

    Sadly, to the chick who gained only 12 lbs and is 5’9″, why don’t you smoke some crack to keep the weight off too? Your baby is 7 lbs, your uterus is 4 lbs, your amniotic fluid is 2 lbs and your breasts gain on average 2 lbs. Plus, if you plan to bf, your body naturally stores about 5 lbs of fat. Only 5 lbs of fat for a total of 20 lbs minimum. So you are starving your baby. What a good mommy!!

    I hope your baby is healthier than I imagine it could be and you grow up really fast or give it up for adoption. People who do drugs while pregnant should go to jail and people who starve their babies should go to jail too.

    The exception is obese women who should gain very little weight. Is that you dear? I hope you are a fat whale. Or you are the crappiest mommy to be.

    Some creatures are proud to be fat, look at all the whales and hippos in the world. They know they’re fat and aren’t suing anyone.

    Thar she blows!

    Fat, thin, average, pregnant…whatever. I just can’t believe that 2 beautiful people could end up with such an ugly kid. She should have been a boy. If she was, she’d be gorgeous. She’d (or He’d) be front and center constantly.

  17. Lisa isn’t ugly, per se. Especially if were basing on unflattering pictures, which have been all her pictures since the 2000s…

    Michael never touched her.

    I’m afraid he did.

    What a scary pair.
    The mother looks like a walking embalmed corpse, and the daughter looks like an aggressive homeless person.

  19. Isn’t she just happy somebody recognized her? She’s mostly known for being Elvis’ cockspit, although I thought her album sounded surprisingly professional. I think she’s cute in that snooty faced fatty kind of way.

    #58 – see, this all could have been easily avoided though if she had just smoked cigarettes 24/7.

    I remember she and her mother were guests on Oprah and she acted like an intimidated 5 year old and told people that’s what being around her mum does to her. I thought she was very manipulative and made Priscilla look awful! Her mum said she had heard about the marriage to Michael Jackson after it happened! So she didn’t even invite her mum to her wedding to Michael Jackson. So who can talk about hurting people’s feelings?

  21. Thanks. this stuff doesnt work any more dudes..
    can smebody suggest smething else…
