Elvis

Elvis was apparently very much opposed to illegal drugs but saw nothing wrong in taking very large quantities of legal ones. I believe that he took downers to help him sleep and uppers to wake himself up and give him the energy to keep going. Whether he truly believed it was fine because they were prescribed by a doctor, or whether he knew that he was kidding himself, we'll never know.

I always loved Elvis. I grew up with his music - my big sister adored him - and his films. I still think that he was the most beautiful man in the world.

And that cheeky little smile!
