Folgende Infos hab ich zu Linda Thompson gefunden:

Birth Name: Linda Diane Thompson
Birthday: 5-23-1950
Birthplace: Memphis, Tennessee

Linda Thompson won several beauty pageants, including the 1972 Miss Tennessee USA title. In July of that year she began a relationship with the recently separated Elvis Presley and immediately moved in with him at Graceland for roughly three and a half years. A few months after Elvis' late 1976 breakup with Linda, she signed on as a regular on the TV series Hee Haw where she was in the cornfields until 1992.

In 1981, Thompson married former Olympic Gold Medal decathlete Bruce Jenner, with whom she had two children, Brody Jenner, and Brandon Jenner. They divorced in 1983 and Linda appeared in a few motion pictures and made a number of guest appearances on different television series. In 1991 she married composer David Foster. With her new husband's help, she began writing lyrics for some of his compositions, notably the song "No Explanation" for the 1990 film, Pretty Woman. In 1992, they were nominated for a Grammy Award and an Academy Award for Best Song for their composition of the song "I Have Nothing" sung by Whitney Houston in the 1992 motion picture, The Bodyguard.

Foster helped Thompson write the lyrics to "The Power of the Dream", the official song of the 1996 Summer Olympics composed by Foster and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds. In 2003, Thompson and her husband won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Music and Lyrics for The Concert for World Children's Day.

She was active with her husband in humanitarian causes in the David Foster Foundation Society. In 2005, the Fosters aired a reality television show called The Princes of Malibu based on Linda's slacker sons and how Foster had to deal with them. The show was cancelled after a few airings, with Foster separating from Thompson.

Vielleicht könnt ihr die Infos ja verwerten

Red West (born 1936 in Memphis, Tennessee) is an American actor, film stuntman and songwriter.

Born Robert "Bobby" Gene West, he was a close high school friend of rock and roll singer Elvis Presley. An excellent athlete and former U.S. Marine, West played football for his high school and junior college teams and was a boxer in the Golden Gloves championships.

In 1955, Red West was the driver for Presley and band members Scotty Moore, Bill Black, and later D.J. Fontana when they toured the U.S. South performing live concerts as the "Blue Moon Boys." In 1960, following Presley's discharge from the United States Army, Red West went to work for the singer as a bodyguard and became known as one of the media-dubbed Memphis Mafia. When Presley was making films in the 1960s in Hollywood, Red West appeared in small roles in sixteen of the star's films. During this time, West became good friends with actor Nick Adams and his physical abilities got him hired on as a stuntman on Adams' television series, The Rebel. From there, West went on to do more stunt work in film as well as developing a career as an actor in a number of motion pictures and on television. He was often on screen as a henchman in the television seriesThe Wild Wild West. He was also a stuntman on the series and developed a strong friendship with the star Robert Conrad. He is best remembered as Sgt. Andy Micklin in the 1978 Robert Conrad series Baa Baa Black Sheep.

In addition, West was a talented songwriter who wrote songs that not only Elvis Presley recorded but also were recorded by teen idols Ricky Nelson, Pat Boone and Johnny Rivers.

In 1976, Red West was involved in a series of heavy-handed incidents in Las Vegas with aggressive fans that got out of hand and drew growing criticism by the media. More than that, West was becoming more vocal about Elvis' drug problem and how he needed rehab. As a result, Red West and two other bodyguards were fired by Vernon Presley. West continued his career in film and in 1977 collaborated with the other two former Presley bodyguards (his cousin Sonny West and Dave Hebler) and a professional writer (Steve Dunlevey) on a book about their time working for Elvis Presley titled "Elvis: What Happened" (ISBN 0-345-27215-3).

Today, Red West continues to work in motion pictures, his most recent role in the 2006 film, Glory Road.

In 1961, Red West married one of Presley's secretaries. Their son John Boyd West is a Hollywood actor.

Kathy Westmoreland


Kathy Westmoreland (born August 10, 1945 in Texarkana, Arkansas)

After growing up in Abilene, Texas, the daughter of a professional singer (father) and a professional dancer (mother), she moved to California in 1962 with her sisters (professional singers Melody Westmoreland and Christie Westmoreland) and brother Brent (professional drummer/singer). She teamed up with friend and Garden Grove High School classmate Steve Martin in a musical comedy act, working together at the Birdcage Theater at Knott's Berry Farm and playing local coffee houses.

A soprano, Westmoreland sang musical comedies and opera, performing oratorios and traveling with the Metropolitan Opera National Company by the age of eighteen. Returning to California, she joined the singing group The Sandpipers, who had a major hit with the song "Guantanamera." She became a studio session singer, appearing on numerous television shows such as those of Red Skelton, Tim Conway and Bobby Darin. She was one of Jimmy Joyce's singers, Ray Conniff's singers, Johnny Mann and many others, including vocals on recording sessions with hundreds of major artists. In 1970 she was hired to sing backup vocals for Elvis Presley, both in the studio and on stage, where he would introduce her as "the little girl with the beautiful high voice." She continued to perform with Presley until his death in 1977 and sang at his funeral at his request.

In 1987, she published "Elvis and Kathy" that recounted her time with Presley. (ISBN 0-9618622-0-3)

Kathy continues to perform to sold-out crowds, ranging from nightclubs to country-rock-and dinner theaters to fan clubs, and appears in films, TV, radio interviews, and recordings. She is currently contributing to many projects, including Dick Dale's HBO special, and occasionally performing with her daughter Lindsey, a singer and dancer.

[Eva]

DAnn fehlt auch Anita Wood

[Gilla]

Anita Wood

Wood, Anita

Anita war eine ehemalige Schönheitskönigin, die bei der Top Ten Dance Party auf WHBQ in Memphis auftrat. Sie hatte gerade die Mid-South Hollywood Star Hunt, einen Talentwettbewerb, gewonnen.

Elvis und sie lernten sich 1957 auf einer Party kennen.
Auch als Elvis 1959 in Deutschland Priscilla kennenlernte, waren sie noch zusammen.

Sie galt als ernsthafte Romanze von Elvis.

Sie heiratete später den Football Star der Cleveland Browns Johnny Brewer.
