Elvis Had A Stillborn Twin Brother

Got this back when I was pregnant, but I’ll be keeping it forever, it’s just so handy. I don’t go to the movie theater that often (even back before quarantine when you actually could…) but I make sure the app and the movie list are all current and updated, cause it’s so handy! It’s great for running late cause you can read their summary, obviously awesome for bathroom or snack breaks mid movie, and I also love that it tells you if there’s anything after the credits which is very handy.

TCB means “taking care of business” and it became a key part of Elvis’s brand. His first TCB ring was made live on stage. He branded his private planes and much of his merchandise with “TCB.” The saying supposedly came from times hanging out with his inner circle, known as the “Memphis Mafia.”

In A Flash: The Meaning Of Elvis’s Lightning Bolt

Another fun fact about Elvis Presley concerns his bling, specifically some famous lightning bolt jewelry.

After adopted “TCB” as his motto, he added the emblem of a “lightning bolt” to it. His famous lightning bolt ring and necklace, both of which you’ll see in the new Elvis movie, meant “taking care of business in a flash.”

Elvis’s Last Words

Elvis had a lot of sleep and digestive trouble later in life, probably caused by his dependence on prescription medications. He sometimes spent so much time in the bathroom that he’d fall asleep on the toilet.

One sleepless night, when he was 42 years old, he went to relieve himself. He was dressed in his signature gold pajamas and carried the book, ” The Scientific Search for the Face of Jesus” with him. When his fiancé reminded him not to fall asleep, he answered, “I won’t.” Those were his last words.

Will his last words be in Elvis the Movie? Watch it in theaters on June 24th. And don’t forget to use Runpee’s Peetimes so you don’t miss any of the good parts!
