Elvis. The greatest Rock N Roll star ever. Follow this little guide to be him

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • White, sparlky jacket
  • A good singing voice
  • A Hairy chest
  • Short Red scarf
  • Black sunglasses
  • Short Black hair
  • White flares
  • Gold chain
  • Gold or red belt
  • Elvis Cape
  1. Step 1

    Put on your white, sparkly jacket, undo the first couple of buttons to expose your hairy chest.

  2. Step 2

    Put on your white flares and black shoes

  3. Step 3

    Put on your belt, let it hang on your waist, not going through any of the rings on your flares

  4. Step 4

    Put on your chain and sunglasses, your chain should be exposed because half of your jacket is undone

  5. Step 5

    Attach your Elvis cape on and put on your scalf - dont wrap it round your neck, just hang it, thats all.

  6. Step 6

    Swing those hips! Practice using a hoola-hoop, the hips are one of the most important things

  7. Step 7

    Say you words bluntly and simply, for example instead of 'Thank you very much', try saying it 'Thank Yer Vey Much', and 'Her, M'Elvis' instead of 'Hi, Im Elvis'.

  8. Step 8

    Practice that voice! You wanna sound deep and soulfull

  9. Step 9

    Go out and perform. You aint gonna be an Elvis Impersonator if people dont see you!

Tips & Warnings
  • Try strutting about your home, acting like elvis to get you in character
  • Dont overdo the costume, if you do, you'll just look like a foolish pimp
