Listen up folks, Elvis
is dead. I wish his family would stop selling his image and sound over and over exploiting him and reducing him to a candy bar wrapper. yes, the new Reeses Peanut Butter cup “King Size” now has a Elvis toon to promote the sugary snack.
Now don’t get me wrong, I like Elvis
and his music - but he is dead. People need to stop acting as if he is still alive and on tour. His family is behind this.
The only reason Elvis
is called “The King” is because he trademarked it. He is not known as the King of Rock and Roll for his music, its only a branded image. Most of you won’t even understand that, but that is the truth. His family paid lots of money to trademark his image and now sells it every day. He longer performs, he is no longer writing music (which he didn’t do much of) and he isn’t coming back.
Get over it, and let the man die. As I see it, his fans and family have stripped him of any honor because as of now, all he does is sell Reeses peanut butter cups.
This is what the King does?????
Sorry, but your king is now a jester. As admitted by the people who came up with the Reeses campaign, Elvis never ate Reeses Peanut Butter cups.
Is this what will become of musicians and celebs in the future, product endorsements even after death?
