VERY SHOCKING NEWS...GOOD AND BAD NEWS
I just got off the phone with Jesse a little earlier. He told me some very shocking news which has left me shaken and perplexed as to how to handle this news on my web site.
He said that he has not been able to sleep since I asked him about that DVD interview because it really is him in the film...ELVIS FOUND ALIVE. He said when I asked him about it out of the blue, I caught him so off guard that he really did not know what to tell me.
He feels so badly that he mislead me when I asked him. I told him that everything is all right as long as he and I are still friends and that is the only thing that matters to me. I told him that I understand how very complicated his situation is and that nothing about it is ever simple.
He said that these men had been following him for months and they finally did catch up with him and he couldn't get away. It did not happen the way that they depicted it in the film...that was all just staged. I described some of the opening scenes to him...I forgot to tell him about all of the ink they blotted off the FBI papers. LOL
I DO NOT believe that is at all the way they really found him as he said they had been following him for quite some time prior to this. That was one of the things which so totally turned me off to the whole DVD. The amateurishly hokey way in which they showed finding his home, the Jon Burrows mailbox, the 50′s Caddy in the drive, the Elvis 8 tracks in the car, etc. That was so very, very corny. No one would believe that was for real. It was not even a good re-enactment.
They did have him dress in clothes that he said he would never wear to this day, brushed his hair back and sprayed it in place, placed a toupee on his head, rings on his fingers, they said all they wanted was his voice. Yes, that really is his own voice. He says that his voice has not changed much at all over the years...so that explains why the voice is so good. This is why so very much of what he said in the interview is the absolute truth.
He said that they had him reading from a TelePrompTer during much of the interview. He felt that the part about the Capt. Marvel comic book was taken to the extreme.
They convinced him that they were sincere and that they would not do anything to cause him any problems.
They promised him that they would not discuss anything about him being Jesse. This took place several years ago. They took him to another state (?) or place and had the location to film set up. He said he did not know when or if it would ever be released to the public. But, they did promise him that they would never release it without letting him know at least a month in advance. They, to this day, have not let him know a word about it coming out publicly.
He still has not seen this DVD. Tom and I watched it, then forwarded it to our go-between who wanted to see it too and who was to then forward it on to Jesse for him to see. So, Jesse should receive it early this week.
So, bottom line is this: ELVIS FOUND ALIVE really is Elvis/Jesse himself speaking in the DVD...sometimes reading lines which the producer had created for him to read from a TelePrompTer. This is why the voice is so "right". I told Jesse that I had said that it wasn't him because of the voice sounding like a younger Elvis and he said that his voice really has not changed that much. Remember, when we speak he does have a voice altering device...in which I can tell that it really is him but not distinct. He said something about them wanting to alter some of his interview because he stuttered at times.
He is planning to write a letter/note about this situation for me to display on the web site, unless he changes his mind.
He was so very, very apologetic to me for not telling me about it when I asked him...just caught him so off guard. He truly did not know that they were releasing it to the public. This is a perfect example of why I have always made it a policy to NEVER ask him any detailed questions about anything and just let him tell me that which he wants me to know. I should have stuck by my own rules this time as well.
Yes, Celeste Yarnall really was there with him and did meet him, so her tears were not acting. She truly did see Elvis. I specifically asked him about her presence. I guess she is labeling it a "mockumentary" to protect the truth maybe? I don't know her thinking on this at all. I do owe her an apology as well.
He said the reason that he did this interview with them was because they had him cornered and he knew if he didn't give them what they wanted that they were going to expose him anyway. He knew that they would reveal everything if he didn't do it. Jesse moved to a new safe location immediately after this encounter so that they would not bother him again.
I feel so very, very, very bad that I have attacked this DVD so ferociously on my web site. I thought I was telling the 100% truth because I asked Jesse and he said that he had not done an interview with anyone.
Jesse told me that he is so very sorry and that I may address this situation however I want to on the site and so I told him that I have always striven so very hard to tell nothing but the truth on my site and that I would be posting this current explanation on the site when we hung up.
Jesse wants his fans to please understand why he felt he had to mislead me when I asked him about this DVD. It just caught him so by surprise since they had promised to always let him know at least a month before doing anything publicly with this film. He doesn't want the fans to be upset with him nor me because of this. I feel that it is always his first response to "deny, deny, deny" when faced with any proof...I should never have pinned him down by asking him about the DVD in the first place. I was just so certain that it would not be him (I had not yet viewed it myself at that time) that I didn't hesitate to ask him. It is all my fault not his. I was so certain that it would not be him and that is why I felt comfortable asking him about it. If I had actually thought that it really was him, I would never have even asked him about it at all. I NEVER want to pry or put him on the spot about anything he has actually done.
So, I will be going back and removing all of the derogatory remarks which I have posted on my web site and on my Facebook regarding this film.
So, now I change my stand and suggest that everyone, who wants to, should buy this DVD. I did not ask him about the CD...didn't even think about it until just now. So, I don't know if the CD is really him or not. Needless to say, I won't be asking him about that! I certainly won't be stating any opinion of my own about that either!
Jesse said that these people seemed very sincere when they shook hands with him and agreed upon the stipulations relating to the film. So, once more, someone else has broken their word to him.
He said that they did not mention Jesse during the interview as per his request. He said that the only name they mentioned to him was that of Dr. Hinton when they were speaking with him...so that is where their search actually started evidently.
I want to make certain that everyone knows that there are NO hard feelings between Jesse and me about any of this. I love him dearly...always have and I always will with NO conditions attached. Our friendship and me being his "baby sister" are absolutely without question for this lifetime and beyond...as Jesse said this afternoon "FOREVER'.
With my deepest apologies to everyone,
Linda
