there’s something to be said about her commit to truly epic eyeliner too, but that is a story for a different day.

for the record though, priscilla has regrets.

in a 1996 interview, presley “dodged questions about Elvis, her daughter Lisa Marie’s marriage to Michael Jackson, and her opinion on whether O.J. Simpson was innocent in the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend.” she did, however, admit: “I look back at those pictures and I’m horrified.”

if she could go back and change her beehive hairdo, hair color, and eye-makeup, she said she would.

thank god for no time travel.
