His father bought him a guitar for his birthday. After he left school in 1954, he got a job as a lorry driver. He made his first record for his mother's birthday. His first hit came in 1956 and was called Heartbreak Hotel. It sold over a million copies. His sexy movements on stage made him very unpopular with the older generation. |

He made thirty three movies, including King Creole. In 1977 he died of a heart attack. He has sold over a billion records worldwide, and his mansion is now a museum.
