The pressures of stardom. It can really get to you. It is a shame though, he was one of the greatest artists of his time.

Because he could. The same rationale for most everything else in his life.
Re: fake Elvis in casket.....I popped it open one eerie night, and the corpse immediately asked if it could finish the cheeseburger I was holding. Trust me, THAT's the real Elvis!

He was under tremendous pressure...can you imagine not being able to walk out of your house without getting mobbed??? I blame the doctors for prescribing all those pills...that's how people get addicted.
As far as him faking his death, I'm not sure about that but I wouldn't blame him. Actually his estate makes more money now per year than he did when he was alive...

Elvis took all those drugs because he was a loser. If he had lived his popularity would have declined and he would have been an old man like every other old entertainer. Yawn. The sun rises and sets every day without Elvis, big whoop.
