  1. Are these Elvis auditions the old ones that Jonathan Rhys Meyers starred in? Or is this a new Elvis series for 2013?

  2. You can see my you tube video from my X Factor appearance (over a million views) or has Nicholas Melendez doing Elvis (there maybe one left up on youtube – XFactor made many be taken down during the taping of the show). I very much resemble young Elvis however, to play the role of Elvis you MUST be Elvis, feel, move, soul, all of it…to properly portray him. I am the guy. Realize you may have already cast this role but thought it was important to try. I do have a acting resume from the age 6 to presently and most currently “Burn Notice” episode.

  4. I’m thirteen years old female. I love acting. I have done two school plays! I would love to be a part of this. It’s my dream to be on this. Could play a little girl or something.

  5. I NATURALLY SOUND LIKE HIM, SOULFUL BARITONE/HIGH BARITONE VOICE EVEN THOUGH I WAS VOCALLY TRAINED OVER THE YEARS TO FIND MY OWN VOICE. MY FACE NATURALLY RESEMBLES HIS. MY SMILE IS EVEN LIKE HIS – ONE LIP SLIGHTLY LIFTED DUE TO ONE OF MY K-NINE TEETH THAT NEVER CAME DOWN WHEN I WAS AN INFANT. I GOT INTO SINGING/MUSIC BECAUSE I RESEMBLED HIS VOICE AND HAVE HAD SIMILAR VOCAL RANGE . I MIGHT BE BLESSED WITH A SLIGHTLY DEEPER VOICE. I HAVE SANG AND KNOW MOST OF HIS SONGS. I HAVE PERFORMED HIS SONGS WITH LIVE BANDS WHERE I HAVE DANCED AND MOVED TO HIS SONGS AS HE DID, BUT IN A SUBTLE, NATURAL WAY. MOST THAT HAVE HEARD ME ARE CONVINCED THAT I AM THE BEST ELVIS THEY’VE HEARD. I AM TALKING ABOUT FOLKS THAT HAVE WITNESSED ANNUAL ELVIS AUDITIONS IN LAS VEGAS. DUE TO MY CHARISMA AND SINGING ABILITY, OLDER FOLKS FROM ELVIS’S ERA HAVE NAMED ME ELVIS RE-BORN. NO DISRESPECT TO THE KING, OTHERS HAVE SAID THAT I SOUND BETTER. OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE DONE A LOT OF READING AND RESERACH ON ELVIS’S LIFE FROM HIS MEMPHIS DAYS TO HIS LAST DAYS AND HIS LAST PERFORMANCES. I’VE ALWAYS RELATED TO HIS CHARACTER AND IMAGE AT SOME CAPACITY. LASTLY, EVER SINCE I WAS EIGHT OR NINE, I WANTED TO ACT, IMPERSONATE, AND HAVE HAD THE DESIRE TO PERFORM. YOU EITHER HAVE THIS TENDENCY AT A YOUNG AGE OR YOU DON’T. I HAVE A MARKETING DEGREE AND LIVE IN ARIZONA.

  6. Alan King, only 19 years soon old, is already one *ETA recognized in his country (*Elvis Tribute Artist ). His young age in fact one most young people ETA current in Belgium, France and certainly in Europe. He dedicates to his model a love without border and has for Elvis a lot of respect and admiration, prefers to represent him young person rather than to reproduce the pictures of Elvis at the end of career. He so allows us of us memories of king of the Rock and roll under his best day. He discovered Elvis Presley approximately 5 years ago and sings him for 2 and a half years. But Alan don’t content himself with a mere nothing. He brings a particular care of honoring his model through suit, swayed hips and through body movements of his idol. We can thus say about Alan King that he returns a tribute seducing the public young person and old in a dynamic show.
    He can also play the guitar. He like above all the music of Elvis.
    A show dedicated to Elvis.
