Marlon Brando, as stated in an interview published in Playboy magazine's January 1979 edition, thus only seventeen months after Presley passed away but more than three decades BEFORE his companion of eight years Rita Moreno, wrote in her 2014 autobiography entitled "Rita Moreno: A Memoir", that during their time together she once went out on a date with Elvis then duly informed Brando, but in both cases only to make him jealous. Brando, who threw chairs all over when told, died in 2004, weighing 310 pounds and was never aware of her ruse.

Elvis Presley bloated, over the hill, adolescent entertainer, suddenly drawing people into Las Vegas, had nothing to do with excellence, just myth. It’s convenient for people to believe that something is wonderful, therefore they’re wonderful.
